Ra's "galaxy"

[zenmaster]

It would appear that a star system is only superficially separate from the galaxy as a whole, where that "whole" would entail an ontological condition that we do not appreciate.

I agree wholeheartedly but is the appreciation something that is beyond our grasp as 3rd density beings? It would seem unlikely to be the case given that they used the term in the manner they did.

I'm going to say probably it is beyond our grasp. In time/space there is a "landscape" where things of like nature or which resonate are "near" just like in space/time where proximity is determined by relative distance. Problem is that the 3D brain has a significant bias for space/time, causal, orientation (for survival purposes) and even when we begin to learn to navigate time/space by understanding "unseen" resonance (i.e. intangible dreams, symbol, metaphor, analogy) these time/space properties are not seen to be intrinsic to or relevant to the objects of observation (astronomical systems).
