Do you want endless disharmony like the Orion Group wants?
Favoring control out of a desire to increase harmony is also an Orion influenced mentality.
It is not my intent to state that this or that line of thinking is wrong. Just that a belief in building barriers is not a path of absolute purity in STO. The good thing is that we don't have to strive towards purity in order to be STO harvestable. So, each of us has to make whatever compromises we feel are right. I feel it's important to keep in mind that they are indeed compromises, though. And that the path of absolute purity, though completely foolish from a position of wisdom, might just be the very thing that inspires everyone and makes everything turn for the better.
And now we come full circle back to the paradox
Quote:25.6 ▶ Questioner: Could you amplify the meaning of what you said by “failure to accept that which is given?”
Ra: I am Ra. At the level of time/space at which this takes place in the form of what you may call thought-war, the most accepting and loving energy would be to so love those who wished to manipulate that those entities were surrounded, engulfed, and transformed by positive energies.
This, however, being a battle of equals, the Confederation is aware that it cannot, on equal footing, allow itself to be manipulated in order to remain purely positive, for then though pure it would not be of any consequence, having been placed by the so-called powers of darkness under the heel, as you may say.
It is thus that those who deal with this thought-war must be defensive rather than accepting in order to preserve their usefulness in service to others. Thusly, they cannot accept fully what the Orion Confederation wishes to give, that being enslavement. Thusly, some polarity is lost due to this friction and both sides, if you will, must then regroup.
