The Great Emptiness (or), the "Nothingness"

[Sacred Fool]

Ra 30.2The mind is a complex which reflects the inpourings of the spirit and the up-pourings of the body complex. It contains what you know as feelings, emotions, and intellectual thoughts in its more conscious complexities. Moving further down the tree of mind we see the intuition which is of the nature of the mind more in contact or in tune with the total beingness complex. Moving down to the roots of mind we find the progression of consciousness which gradually turns from the personal to the racial memory, to the cosmic influxes, and thus becomes a direct contactor of that shuttle which we call the spirit complex.

 

We are complex creatures and the Mind even more complicated. The biggest problem is, the Mind cannot analyze the Mind. Everything is only assumption and speculation. Although I agree with the quote. I am, (therefore I am), I am also Universal Mind, and it is rarely considered on the Gross Intellectual Level. Even Intuitive Mind is limited because it still remains in Self-Consciousness and the "I-ness". We must learn to expand our Consciousness on the "Grand Universal Scale", and not remain trapped in our feeble and limited worldview, (our created worlds).

 

• If you were one with the Universal Mind, I doubt you'd be spending your time posting here.
  
• The Ra quote above indicates that the intuitive mind (accessed through the heart) is the means for reaching a state where self-consciousness includes all planetary and cosmic consciousness.  This approach offers a path of expanding self-awareness, not neutering it. 
  
• Ra, 5.2. "The mind must be opened like a door. The key is silence."  Silence or emptiness within is necessary to discipline the mind in order to begin the journey just described.  It is the first step towards expanding the awareness of being to include the levels listed above.
  

Naturally, I'm not advising that you believe one thing or another, I'm just trying to be scrupulous about pointing out the Confederation viewpoint on this because I feel it is quite informative for any seeker.
