The Detuning of Session 17 and Ra's True Intentions Regarding 2011 - Part II

[Tenet Nosce]

The banishing ritual is not the same thing as the circle of one.

I got that part. I also got that walking the circle of one prevented any entities but Ra from using Carla's body during the sessions. But then... what was the banishing ritual used for, and what sort of effect could its relative effectiveness have on the sessions?

I guess not. Are you saying that Ra pausing while Jim unpacked groceries caused confusion?

It could have caused distraction, which could have caused confusion. Certainly there IS confusion among students of the material, and the confusion seems to revolve around the same quotes over and over again.

Here is a specific example. Jim's bringing in the groceries resulted in confusion in you, mis-transcribing the interruption as the tape being flipped. [Tape gets flipped] appears in lawofone.info, and causes confusion in me as my subconscious picks up on the change, but instead of realizing that there actually WAS a change, I thought I had misread it the last time. I started to draw certain conclusions based on this, and shared them in the threads. This led to more confusion. And here we are now. See? This is a direct causal chain of events resulting in confusion.

Thanks also, for providing the general intent of the outline for the books. This is still curious to me though.... when Ra came in for Session One the group had no foreknowledge, right? So Don's questions here surely weren't planned. Can you please explain where in the process the questions began to be planned, and the outline of the books developed?

No, I don't know anything about Leonard.

Bummer. Can you point me to anybody who might be willing to share more info?
