What is Ra's LOO?

[Steppingfeet]

Clearly, the Ra Material can also be explored and engaged on a variety of levels.  There's the Dewey Larson, alien space craft, government conspiracy level.  There's the deciphering the the tarot symbols detective story.  There's the cosmological framework of the densities, and so forth.  There's also abundant fodder in there for philosophical discussion...

That's a good way to put it. The material does have multiple interweaving veins of thought, each part of the larger tapestry, but each, when isolated, possessing its own particular appeal. In addition to those you name above, there is to some extent an aspect of Applied Metaphysics: crystal technology, ritual white magic work, psychic self-defense, etc.

Personally, the philosophy has always been the big draw for me. I was initially quite fascinated by the cosmology, and still of course am, but the deeper value is in the essence of the mystical vein of thought. I tend to gloss over aspects of the timeline, like when Yahweh did what to whom.

Not to mention Ra's comments to the effect that it's primarily Wanderers who will understand the materials. One could argue that he may have engaged in these teachings largely to provide a guide for Wanderers and to aid in their activation, while of course anyone else who happens to find greater enlightenment through them is a nice side benefit.

Is the "he" in your post Ra or 4DSunrise?

Ra's stated intent, and thus principal goal, was to lessen the distortions given to their teaching of the Law of One, a project to which they are bound by responsibility.

But I suspect you're correct in that Ra understood their, shall we say, target demographic, i.e., wanderers. Ra likely recognized that - for those ready to awaken somewhat to the reason and purpose of their incarnation (pierce the veil of forgetting) - this information would do just that. A postcard from home that jogs the memory.

I was pondering the OP's question. What if there were, say, a college course on the material, attended by those who desired a structured, tutorially arranged teaching of this system of thought.

You could start with the small picture (life on Earth at the time of harvest) and expand out to the big picture (the macrocosmic universe, the primal three distortions, etc.) Or, vice versa.

You could tell the story of the cosmology, densities and polarity included, or focus on personal spiritual evolution within the framework of the chakras. You could simply read and study together, as a group. Or, if you really wanted to teach the Law of One material (secondary to the teaching your own being offers), you could teach disciplined modes of seeking, service, and worship.

Austin and I are making an attempt at drafting a new introduction to the Law of One. We've developed an outline of four major sections:

I. Ra Contact story (how it came to be)
II. Cosmology
III. Philosophy
IV. Readership

Were I to design a course, I think I might use the same outline, though it could be trimmed to just II and III.

Personally I think it helpful to have the structure or framework of the cosmology in place to situate the philosophy. But, I am a somewhat left-brained, analytically minded person. There are other more creative ways to approach its teaching.
