The Transformation of the Spirit

[ricdaw]

I cannot believe that Ra believes the material world is "infinite and eternal." The end of that sentence does not modify or describe spirit, it modifies and describes the material world. "The material world is . . . . infinite and eternal" makes no sense.

I think the idea here is that the Transformation of the Spirit penetrates the perception of the material world in its gross and ephemeral phase. The material world is composed of Intelligent Energy, just like everything else in the illusion, and when you attain the ability to recognize this, everything takes on the character of the infinite and eternal, and the ephemeral aspects are seen as signposts that cannot be dissociated from the eternal in the way a word cannot be dissociated from its meaning.

Additionally, it is similarly troublesome to imagine, under your interpretation, that Ra would be suggesting that the Spirit can be finite and temporary. For if the spirit is transformed into that which is infinite and eternal, then we must assume it was not this already.

Touche! LOL!
