[Steppingfeet]

Still totally no different from us, as they are doing things we will do in the future, so I still say Ra is not unlike us, just a different level of "us".

It's a valid statement to say "Ra is not unlike us".

My point was not that the statement was untrue. Rather that such a statement cannot be be, key word, *categorically* true. Because there are many very important ways that Ra is, actually, not like us.

The fact that they are identified as "Ra" immediately creates a distinction and differentiation. Why are they "Ra" and why are we "Human"? The labels themselves denote that somehow, in some way, we are referring to different things, different categories, different entities.

To say that "Still no totally no different from us" is to erase all distinctions, all comparisons, all contrasts. By that logic, a tree is no different from us. A crater is no different from us. A puff of smoke is no different from us.

And one can reach that conclusion because all things are indeed one. According to Ra, we are "every thing, every being, every emotion, every event, every situation."

But I think that this idea of underlying oneness with all things can leads to a mindset that *conflates*, that is, falsely equates different things with each other.

The heart of the seeker's awareness must be ever bent upon seeing/knowing/experiencing/becoming one with all things, but in order to navigate whatever particular outer stage we actors may find our feet dancing upon, distinctions are needed and critical.

Indeed, another way that Ra is like us is that they, too, do not do away with distinctions.
