I tend to think the idea of enlightenment means that you would not view others as asleep, because that opinion is separative. There is only ever experience, and a reflection of the self.
I think the Ra material is a very very tricky thing. For instance, how would you read this sentence.. "To those who wish to sleep we could only offer those comforts designed for the sleeping. Service is only possible to the extent it is requested."
Is that statement speaking to others, or is it used to reinforce superiority, therefore putting you to sleep? Who are they speaking to?
