Creator, Creation and indigo ray

[Diana]

Opening the indigo ray requires not being humble and not being arrogant.

Maybe Ra needs to be educated on this point, they who call themselves "humble messengers."

It seems to me that humility is a major element of Confederation teaching, particularly when it comes to those who deem themselves wise.  At least, that's what Q'uo said about someone who looks a lot like me during a session in 2006.

I think I may understand what Unity100 meant. I also take your point SF about Ra. I think part of the issue here is semantics.

Being "humble" from Ra's perspective, I think involves not having any expectations. They were not here to control anything, or make anyone see their points of view, or gain followers. They offered their message as a gift with no strings so to speak, through a channel of rare configuration that opened up, in response to a "calling"—a sort of energetic confluence of elements which formed the contact. I see the idea of them being humble as having no agenda, no desire to change anything, no expectations, and offering themselves freely. I wouldn't want to diminish this service, but I will compare it to osmosis for simplicity's sake: those of Ra constituted more conscious awareness than the peoples of this planet, and when there is an imbalance in the universe of the denseness of awareness, there would be the tendency for that awareness to move from an area of high concentration to low concentration even through a membrane (the veil, ot 6th to 3rd) which can be seen as another manifestation of balancing. This is not to suggest that there wasn't much more to it than that, such as those of Ra answering a call out of compassion, but again, their answer did not involve expectations. 

Let's compare that to the humility we might observe in humanity. I see very few instances of the sort of humbleness Ra exhibited in humans. Most humans simply have not achieved the level of detachment. Their humility is often attached to feeling undeserving of transmitting a message/gift/help, so they present it as though it is of no or little value—the emotion driving this being unworthiness. Or any other scenario which involves expectations of value or even control. Control can be observed even in STO people when because of their feeling of unworthiness, they, albeit perhaps unconsciously, desire an outcome when they help someone to prove their value as healers or wise counsel or recognition of offering service. So something external is driving them. Worthiness derives from self and no outside force or happening can touch it when that level of comprehension is attained and  balanced. When there is a level of detachment such as Ra's, self-worth has been left behind—it no longer matters—there is no longer an emotional charge around it to work through. Catalyst that may be used for processing self-worth has no receptor site to dock on using the analogy of a human body cell. There are now greater understandings to explore and integrate.

Arrogance in humans I think derives from lack of self-worth as well, though it manifests in different form. In any case, I see it as exerting control over that which an individual feels it doesn't have control. When looking at an adept STS entity, I would imagine that arrogance is not an issue. They have achieved a level of control that they are very sure of, so arrogance is not needed. They know they have the power to whatever they desire and so they just use it, knowing that arrogance is wasted energy and not useful to their ends. 

So in following this idea, it seems to me having expectations, being attached to outcome, is the real difference between STS and STO, which makes sense considering free will. It is not necessarily arrogance vs. humility as that can be very layered and nuanced.
