That sounds schizophrenic to me.
You know, I cannot even begin to disentangle this or figure out what you actually think the terms "STO" or "STS" mean. First you claim - falsely - that I'm telling you what to do, then when I quite explicitly illustrate your free will without at all telling you what to do, you get upset over that as well. Apparently it doesn't matter whether I tell you what to do, or not, you'll object either way. (And while calling me confused and schizophrenic.)
You might also want to read the midsection of Session 25. It addresses quite concretely why it's basically unproductive for STO and STS to seek out direct combat. Whether you fight any battles or not is ENTIRELY up to you, and has nothing to do with your chosen polarity.
Quote:And according to the Ra Material you move through densities based on your STO/STS orientation.
This is a major over-simplification of the materials. The only time STO/STS have any major significance is in third density, and sixth. In third density, polarization is a reflection of one's increasing self-empowerment and ability to take direct responsibility for their spiritual progress. (I mentioned this previously in the thread, where I likened it to puberty.) In sixth, polarity is abandoned entirely before an entity can move into seventh. That's it. STO/STS could be liked to scaffolding on the side of a building during its construction. It's a useful prop for achieving certain ends, but something which will be removed and rendered completely unimportant by the time the work is complete.
Your posts seem to suggest you consider the scaffolding more important than the building!
Quote:The enemy is the system.
I'm sorry, but as long as you perceive "the system" as being "the enemy" you will always be fighting a battle you can never win. You and "the enemy" are one in the same. That is the essence of the Law of One. If you feel you must fight, then at least endeavor to remember that it truly is only a game, and the board will be cleared someday in the future.
There you are taking things personally again. I wasn't calling YOU schizophrenic. I said "That sounds schizophrenic." Meaning the point you were making. STO/STS means the same to me that it does to you and everybody else. There's no ambiguity there. The Ra Material actually speaks to the point I made:
Quote:Ra Says:
I am Ra. The Law of Confusion or Free Will is utterly paramount in the workings of the infinite creation. That which is intended has as much intensity of attraction to the polar opposite as the intensity of the intention or desire.
Thus those whose desires are shallow or transitory experience only ephemeral configurations of what might be called the magical circumstance. There is a turning point, a fulcrum which swings as a mind/body/spirit complex tunes its will to service. If this will and desire is for service to others the corresponding polarity will be activated.
We may note that such a configuration of free will, one-pointed in service to others, also has the potential for the alerting of a great mass of light strength. This positive light strength, however, operates also under free will and must be invoked.
So you're right, it doesn't matter that you tell me what to do, or not to do. It's not necessary to tell that to anyone. Just let it be. People will naturally choose their own path.

Only while we are in third density. All while keeping the greater goal of "the building" in mind.

No, pardon me, but the enemy is "within" as well as "without." We can still realize it's a game while at the same time helping others who may be suffering from the effects of the game. If everyone took the position that the enemy is only within and only focused on themselves we would have no teachers, doctors, nurses, conservationists, emergency techs, environmentalists, Red Cross, American Civil Liberties, Civil Rights, politics, law...I think you get the point. They key word for me is balance, regardless of what the material says.
However, judging from you last quote it sounds like you have chosen the STS path. I may be wrong but that's what it sounds like. And there is nothing wrong with that if that is your choice because we are all supposed to have "free will" (arguably). All will be reconciled once were all in the building anyways, right?
