I don't speak from the Ra material. If I would try I would merely impose my interpretations upon it.
I understand this "imposed darkness" like the flesh to be part of our current collective reality. That which we imposed upon ourselves. To a higher being there are no enemies. There is only truth, and the different interpretations of it. When two interpretations make us appear adversarial this is a distortion. Not an underlying reality. Enemies like flesh express separation and limitation. Self and not self. This I believe to be the basic distortion of human experience.
There are all kinds of myths, for example the biblical fall of man, that refer to this very same principle. And these are all valid ways of perceiving it. The only true measure of a philosophy is in the end the degree to which it helps you cope with life. They're all merely maps.
