Law of One study in the Chatrooms

[DEFkab]

Wednesday saw another Study Group Session. In this one, we actually moved ground to cover a few responses from Ra. We left off only at 1.5, however, so there's still a great deal of work to be done.
We started back at 1.0, with Ra's introduction. We looked at his phrasing in "You are not part of a material universe," paying special attention to who we are, that's not part of a material universe.

Throughout the introduction, Ra moves from Carla to Don, and then to Leonard, before settling back into Carla. It really drives the need to get more information on Leonard.

Don's first question for Ra is regarding Ra's purpose. While delving into these responses, I got a lot of good feedback from those participating, particularly users Matt1 and Spaced. One of the revelations they provide is a naming system for 6 of the 8 densities that we are aware of. The naming, from First to Sixth, goes Awareness, to Growth, to Self, to Love, to Light, and then to Unity, each name representing the 'core' lesson to be learned in that density.

The biggest thing we explored was Ra's relationship with Ancient Egypt, at the time of Akhenaten. We noted the importance of the myth of his deformed head, which correlates to the 'location' that Ra pinpoints as the place contact with him occurs, near the back of the top of the head.

We also theorized on certain words that he used to explain the predicament he created from himself in Egypt. Of note was the word Decree, which Plenum pointed out had only been used twice in the Manuscripts, and both times in reference to Akhenaten. This lead us to believe that Ra told Akhenaten to Decree the Law of One, which meant Akhenaten had declared it law to believe in the Law of One. This correlates with history teaching about the period in Egypt when Akhenaten attempted to form a religion based around only one God, the Sun God. History taught us that the priests resented the change, and killed Akhenaten to prevent his works. This splintered Egypt, resulting in a doubling of their idols: 64 gods in total.
Immediately after, Ra mentioned that he was no longer in a 'Hypocritical place'. I came to the assumption that Ra was calling himself Hypocritical while he was dealing with Akhenaten, and wondered what he meant. I thought that Ra considered himself Hypocritical for having the Law be forced from an Authoritative standpoint, ignoring the Principle of Free Will that is so inherent to his lessons. While thinking on this, it seemed to reveal the exact relationship the Law of One has with this reality, as a describer, not a definer.

At any rate, we tossed around some ideas, made some startling revelations, and concluded that even in five queries, Ra has crushed so much useful data into this manuscript that it could take quite a while to digest it all.

We left the session with some good knowledge, and ideas on where we can take this further. A few comments came up as to the 'style' of studying, mentioning how hard it is to look at each piece of the puzzle without referring to other pieces. I agree, not referencing what you already know is difficult, but when you start at the beginning, it can help to look back when you reach a relevant point, instead of looking forward and losing the path.

The trends of participants is obvious, and my work schedule if hectic, so to accommodate, I'm altering the schedule of the Work Group to Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. This'll allow more people to participate in more studies, and makes things a little easier on me to manage.

Please, I encourage you, if you have the time, show up to our study group. You could teach a lot, and possibly even learn a little.
