Welcome to Bring4th, Louisabell!
Absolutely. It can give one the impression that, no matter how many times one reads the material, one can never really claim one understands it. I'm re-reading the series now and I continue to be utterly astounded at the new insights I find all the time that were there all along! I think your husband's theory has great merit, but I think we can credit those of Ra's obfuscating diction a bit, too. Sometimes you just have to read that stuff a hundred times to actually parse it!
I've had that feeling of childlike joy in wondering at the picture of reality those of Ra paint. Enjoy yourself!
