We the Choir Gather and We Learn to Sing Together

[Ming the Merciful]

Another area that has been overlooked, are the teachings of Madam Blavatsky and Alice Bailey. The "Missing Link". Compared to the current strata of thinking, both parties seem to be Primordial and not current, (yet), the information they acquired at the time was phenomenal. Their teachings and philosophy is. (indirectly), related to current day thinking. In the writings of Madam Blavatsky, there are indirect connotations to Ra and Higher Beings, (implying otherworldly). Has anyone read Isis Unveiled" or the "Secret Doctrine". Highly recommended reading. There are more things in Heaven and Earth than you realize. Once again, everything is connected, (is it not). Don't look at the obvious, but the sublime. The God(s) work in mysterious ways?

I have read Isis Unveiled, many years ago. There were two volumes—theology (I think) and science. Someone (I always lend out books to whomever) borrowed my copies and I never got them back.

I read one of the Theosophical Society's books I found at the library before I got the Isis Unveiled two-book set. I was walking down an aisle and a thin book was sticking out. So I checked it out. I remember thinking there was a lot of interesting stuff in it, and got Isis Unveiled as a result. A dear neighbor who passed away several years ago had a spiritualist church in Phoenix for decades. She used to reference Alice Bailey all the time, and she was the person who bequeathed to me an original copy of the Ra Material..

The mind is a many layered part of us. No matter how much we think we know, there is always more to be discovered. And of course it then goes way beyond the mind—it has to. One can't look at the Hubble photo of billions of galaxies alone, even as an empirical scientist, and not realize how vast, how mysterious, and how unfathomable from out point of view existence is.

Did you know that all the Theosophical books are online, and more importantly, free in PDF format? I used to have copies of Isis Unveiled and Secret Doctrine, until the point, (which changed my life), I lost them. Or, that was at the beginning of the "Transition". The point is, I realized I didn't have them, so I went, (forthwith), to the Theosophical Website and downloaded them. I always considered them like old friends. I have travelled a lot. Mostly across North America and Europe, (I have seen most of the countries in Western Europe). The point is, whenever I travelled, my travelling companion was always Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathrustra". Although it is the "Anti-God" and the rise of the Ape to Man. My favourite non-religious philosophical book. What is Ape to Man? A laughingstock and painful embarrassment. Just so is Man to the Superman. A laughingstock and painful embarrassment. My favourite quote.

However, by reading Nietzsche is also gave me the insight to question Religion, (all Religion). Question everything, and never accept anything on face value or false pretenses. This is what I was saying earlier, (if it was this discussion), about "Evangelical", because I can see some hints of it here, (small traces). What is that supposed to mean? Just because the Book of Ra was, (supposedly), from a channelled transcript, it does not make it absolute. No Spiritual treatise is "Absolute". The perfect example. I have read most of the Vedas, a lot of the Buddha's Sutras and I think the Bhagavad-Gita is, (probably), the most accurate Spiritual book. And then my brother became a Mormon. That is true. While I was venturing into Eastern Philosophy, (and some of it is extremely advanced). My brother converted and became a Mormon, (the agony). I read the Book of Mormon, and compared to the Philosophy of the East, it is like reading a comic book. People actually believe it? It is obvious by the way it was written that Joseph Smith, (and his cohorts), were illiterate. If that is supposed to be Spiritually inspired, then they have a lot to learn. The gullibility of people. People accept on blind faith, without questioning anything. Even question the validity of the Book of Ra. If the Book of Ra is what it claims to be, then it can prove itself against investigation and scrutiny.

Compared to a lot of people here, I probably sound a "Revolutionary" or "Backslider", (in Christian terminology), except I know enough about Religion and Philosophy to know if something is genuine, (or not). Although in favour for the Book of Ra, I do see reflections of the Vedas. The first time I glanced at it, I did think I was reading parts of the Upanishads or Mahabharata. It is that good. Did you see my other comments regarding the Mystery School in Peru? I had a friend and he had an interest in an organization in Cuzco, called "The Brotherhood of the Seven Rays". Basically, what it was. My friend considered himself to be an "Advanced Spiritual Being", and qualified to become a member of the Mystery School. He went to Peru, in search of the Mystery School. He did not find the Mystery School, (per se), but he found individuals who were outside the organization, who became contacts, and he was contacted after he returned home. They were in the Mystery School, working as outsiders. The fact is, he would have never qualified, because he was Spiritually immature. It was all ego. The point is, other outsiders visited him, and I happened to meet some of them. Without sounding egotistical, (which I am not). It was those people who got me into the Zen Buddhist organization, because they said I had potential. So that is how it is.

The Mystery School and the Law of One. What is the most amazing coincidence. I have read some of the writings from the Mystery School, and the core beliefs is in Ra. Or, there are, (supposed), otherworldly connections in the Mystery School through an associated covert organization. Then the connections go back to ancient Egypt, the Sumerians, and possibly Atlantis. So, we are talking BIG. Which puts the Law of One at the tip of a very large iceberg. The pinnacle at the top of the pyramid. This is why I am looking objectively and thoroughly at everything. There is a lot more here than most people realize? Here, (and not here), because there is a possible connection to something more intense. So question everything and do not accept on face value. There are also those that say, that the Theosophical Society has connections with Eastern Mystery Schools, (and again), connections and influences from Ra. We must join the dots. Look at the overall picture, not one small fragment. So ends the discourse...

Peace.
