It is typical for humanity and its disciplines at any given time to purport to "know" things (geocentricity, Newtonian universe, women = chattel), and the resulting dogmas are pretty much ingrained and act like a gravity well, making thinking outside the box a challenge.
It does make sense that, referencing the densities according to Ra, love or the creative principle would be arrived at first (4th density), then wisdom (5th density), then the balancing of the two in 6th density. I would like to say then, that the deeper understanding of wisdom may be just as important as the deeper understanding of love. The problem with discussing it is that we in our density just can't comprehend it. Wisdom is not just thinking, just as love is not just tribal associations.
So perhaps it is efficacious to explore the deeper meanings of love, first, here in 3D since this is, according to Ra and the Confederation sources, what lies ahead in the next density of experience, and, it would seem that there might be some reason why opening to love first is a prerequisite to accessing wisdom (free will > love > light).
Quote:15.21 Questioner: Well, in yesterday’s material you stated “we offer the Law of One, the solving of paradoxes.” You also mentioned earlier that the first paradox, or the first distortion I meant, was the distortion of free will. Could you tell me if there’s a sequence? Is there a first, second, third, fourth distortion of the Law of One?
Ra: I am Ra. Only up to a very short point. After this point, the many-ness of distortions are equal one to another. The first distortion, free will, finds focus. This is the second distortion known to you as Logos, the Creative Principle or Love. This intelligent energy thus creates a distortion known as Light. From these three distortions come many, many hierarchies of distortions, each having its own paradoxes to be synthesized, no one being more important than another.
More important or perhaps essential, to me, is to free oneself from the dogma and indoctrination of human constructs. An open-mindedness and willingness to question beliefs is essential to reaching any higher understandings of what love and wisdom may actually be in the larger view.
The Matrix of the Spirit is in darkness and fear and until the lightning strikes, or simply light, illuminates.
I do have a tendency to monologue.
That's a nice and wise monologue Diana.
One can really say that a core element of the New Age is to judge every thought and every action and then compulsively make a decision for what has been judged as positive.
The compulsion to judge can indeed be called human.
Arguing over competing understandings of faith is another human trait, incited by religions.
As opposite movement could be seen the dualism, where it is recognized that each polarity is in fact only the two sides of the same coin and ultimately everything is one.
You have raised another interesting core issue here, that many people think they have achieved something, that is not yet possible in this density. Development means to do one step after the other in the order it is possible.
