Earth as a living entity?

[Steppingfeet]

GLB, you are correct and perhaps I should clarify that I meant to say the Earth is a mind/body/spirit solely based on my understanding of the term, rather than according to Ra.  Terms aside, the two facts I am certain of (again, from personal experience rather than Ra) is that the Earth is a conscious, living, feeling entity, and that when a planet is destroyed, that unique entity ceases to exist.

What makes you think that the planetary consciousness, the self that is the planet, "ceases to exist" if the physical form of the planet is destroyed?

I have no idea one way or the other, actually. But it stands to reason that, just as we do not cease to exist when our bodies are destroyed, then planets, likewise, do not cease to exist in the event their outward vehicle is destroyed.

I don't think the Earth is complex. It doesn't have a veil over its own mind. I don't think there is a subconscious Earth.
I think it's just a mind/body/spirit.

I think Ra said that a planet's consciousness is formed from the consciousnesses of all the m/b/s complex entities upon its surface.

Gemini Wolf! Salient, helpful, non-personal anecdotal contribution. Solid.

Yeah, there does seem to be something about the selfhood or the identity of the planet that is bound up in the entities upon its surface. I think the planet is us, in a sense.
