Is STS progression faster than STO?

[Siren]

I was wondering why an entity would choose STS after knowing the true nature of things

Once the "heart" (green-ray nexus) has been sufficiently shut off, the contemplation of unconditional compassion for other-selves becomes inconceivable—not to mention undesirable. Having already repressed green-ray energy in 3D and achieved graduation in like manner, the 4D and then 5D entity recognizing the potential and seeing itself as Creator will not see the Creation in the eyes of unconditional love, but in the eyes of absolute domination.

It is the "God Syndrome." With the negation of green-ray there arises the possibility and potential desirability for "galactic conquest," so to speak (because the other portions of Creation are not seen as "you;" and if they are, then oh God, they are totally out of control and need to be brought to order under your rule!). It is the greatest aphrodisiac; for what greater temptation/distortion is there but that of the possibility of total conquering/domination/control of all of Creation? Yet I suppose this cannot be understood by one who has not tread the negative path (and many already have, but remember it not).

Maybe, in their view, they are attempting to bring people to the Creator faster, by inflicting painful experiences and offering catalyst to evolve, employing powers of control to speed up the evolutionary process as quickly as possible.

They are offering this already, whether they recognize it as such or not. But the StS entity is extremely deceptive (even to itself).

To answer your query more to the point: it is my understanding that the negative path offers a faster progression in the lower densities and becomes somewhat "slowed down" in the higher ones. The inverse opposite applies to the positive path (it is more "difficult" in the lower vibrations but "easier" in the higher ones—this is all, of course, relative to 3rd-density). Then again, time is of little meaning—especially when one is fully and single-mindedly consummated with his/her work at hand ("time flies" and eternity stretches into timelessness; there is no time, only the forever moment of the ever-present now).
