I can't decide if I agree or disagree. I think we are all "trying" for that state, whether we realize it or not. But, in the same vein, I agree with you that it is about the perfect utilization of catalyst, to the point where there is no static or "resistance".

But much like other spiritual pursuits (the seeking of nirvana, the seeking of the activation of higher bodies, the seeking of siddhi's), something of it smacks of avoidance, at some level. I'm not saying that these things are invalid, or impossible to attain, indeed they are, but as so often as I've found in personal experience and from the stories of others, these things tend to land in your lap as a consequence of other work; which is done for it's own sake.
it's the classic adage of: tend to the tree, and the fruit will grow on it's own. Here the 'fruit' are the spiritual abilities, the attainment of a stable, balanced consciousness, and even experiencing a unity-level consciousness, where there is no longer any conflicting thoughts; all is seen to be part of the one weave.
the work, at the end of the day, is most simple:

the experiences are already being attracted to oneself automatically.
everything we need to keep growing is already being given to us through the process of living and breathing.
I agree with you for the most part Plenum.
But in regards to it smacking of avoidance, I think in some cases you may be right, and even Ra has said, "It has been our experience that some penetrate several planes at one time. Others penetrate them slowly. Some in eagerness attempt to penetrate the higher planes before penetrating the energies of the so-called lower or more fundamental planes. This causes energy imbalance.
You will find ill health, as you call this distortion, to frequently be the result of a subtle mismatch of energies in which some of the higher energy levels are being activated by the conscious attempts of the entity while the entity has not penetrated the lower energy centers or sub-densities of this density."
But, I also tend to think a "perfect configuration of the mind/body/spirit" could not be realized through avoidance in the first place, in fact, I would say it could only be realized through the exact opposite, as Gemini Wolf said, through absolute acceptance, or perfect utilization of catalyst, such that the seemingly separate "part" that is the mind/body/spirit blends so harmoniously with the rest of creation that the distinction between them is truly seen as non-apparent.
