I've had a question rolling around in my head this week. What is the value of faith? It's a tough question that I don't have a fast answer to. Where metaphysics / religion / spirituality is concerned, the only thing I can think of is perhaps it reassures one that our consciousness doesn't go to oblivion upon bodily death? Does it help an individual in any other way than that?
Food for thought / bonus question- is it a hallmark of the negative path to see absolutely no point in or to place no value on faith? Demanding proof, being cynical etc? Or is that just another polarity neutral choice in attitude / perspective among the infinite attitudes one could form?
I may not have time to participate (so busy these days), but I will be listening. And thank you in advance!
L&L,

Ra states that to build faith in the Creation and unity of all, while under the veil, is one of the 'graduation requirements' to fourth density.
Quote:82.29 Questioner: You have stated in a much earlier session that it is necessary to polarize more than 50% service-to-others to be harvestable fourth-density positive. Was this condition the same at the time before the veil?
Ra: I am Ra. This shall be the last full query of this working.
The query is not answered easily, for the concept of service to self did not hold sway previous to what we have been calling the veiling process. The necessity for graduation to fourth density is an ability to use, welcome, and enjoy a certain intensity of the white light of the One Infinite Creator. In your own terms at your space/time nexus this ability may be measured by your previously stated percentages of service.
Prior to the veiling process the measurement would be that of an entity walking up a set of your stairs, each of which was imbued with a certain quality of light. The stair upon which an entity stopped would be either third-density light or fourth-density light. Between the two stairs lies the threshold. To cross that threshold is difficult. There is resistance at the edge, shall we say, of each density. The faculty of faith or will needs to be understood, nourished, and developed in order to have an entity which seeks past the boundary of third density. Those entities which do not do their homework, be they ever so amiable, shall not cross. It was this situation which faced the Logoi prior to the veiling process being introduced into the experiential continuum of third density.
Faith is very healthy for you. Studies have shown that those with a shared faith, living in a community based environment, 'rank' higher in happiness/satisfaction.
Not to mention the health benefits. If one has faith that there is a healing and loving Divine force within them, their neurological mindset/patterns will in turn illicit the secretion of hormones and chemicals highly beneficial for cell regeneration.
