Creator, Creation and indigo ray

[Sacred Fool]

I think it's pretty clearly stated that balancing the energy centers with meditation and crystals and helping people practice that is what is meant by service to others.

Yes, that's part of it, and there is much more, if one has inclinations towards become adept in the realm of consciousness (which is all there is).

There are plenty of "humble" people that need help that aren't doing very well. I don't see how humility benefits a beggar. This is kind of what people are getting at when they joke about how being "nice" to a woman is what will get them a relationship. It just won't in most scenarios. I don't think being humble on its own gets a person to accomplish anything.

Great idea, but not really a practical one that a lot of emphasis should be placed in.

It's like saying everyone should be nice to everyone else.

Ah, I see your point now, and I would agree with you on the yellow ray level.  But, in the context of the Ra Material, that seems like such minor field of play when the fully activated range of consciousness is potentially available for exploration (that is, the use of all chakras, 1 thru 7).

74.11 Questioner: Now, what I am trying to get at is how these disciplines affect the energy centers and the power, shall I say, of the white magician. Could you, will you tell me how that works?

Ra: I am Ra. The heart of the discipline of the personality is threefold. One, know yourself. Two, accept yourself. Three, become the Creator.

The third step is that step which, when accomplished, renders one the most humble servant of all, transparent in personality and completely able to know and accept other-selves. In relation to the pursuit of the magical working the continuing discipline of the personality involves the adept in knowing itself, accepting itself, and thus clearing the path towards the great indigo gateway to the Creator. To become the Creator is to become all that there is. There is then no personality in the sense with which the adept begins its learn/teaching. As the consciousness of the indigo ray becomes more crystalline, more work may be done; more may be expressed from intelligent infinity.

This (especially "no personality") would seem to be describing something well beyond yellow-ray-identified matters.
