I read it a little differently. Ra speaks in 1.0 about the Original Thought and later about how in that thought there is only unity. What breaks apart the unity? The first thing is free will. That makes it the first distortion, not of truth, but of All, because in complete unity there is is no dichotomy of truth/falsehood. Truth/falsehood and past/present/future are artifacts of the illusion. Free will is the first means of that which created becoming conscious of itself in apparent separation from Oneness. This is to say, free will would appear to be of greater primal importance than time and specific ideation.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I define Unity and the All as true and distortions, illusions, and separations as false. Do you hold different definitions of the words? Perhaps you see experiences of distortions, illusions, and separations as possibly being true in the sense that it is true we experience them for a finite period of time?
