I have not familiarized myself with details of the Ra material, and thus I am to blame myself for the confusion I have found here. It seems that there is great difference between what you know as the Law of One, and that which I know as the Law of One.
Although some here would agree on the aspect of the All being One Consciousness, there seems to be a great deal of focus on Ra's teachings about color and density. And somewhere within that emphasis there develops a great difference between our understandings of Intelligent Design and Divine process. One truth you should All remember is that every being relates opinion and within that can be error as with any other opinion. All teachings are afflicted with this and it is the obligation of the true wanderer or seeker to discern what seems wrong as much as what seems right. This channeled material may have much truth, but there is no reason to believe that it may not be subject to some error as well. Ra is the channeled information from another group of beings. Error and confusion is as possible there as anywhere else. It is also subject to our own inability to accurately translate and interpret.
You seem to view reincarnation and the flesh as a natural part of the human experience and an aspect that you intentionally choose to develop and enjoy. We, the Children of the Law of One, are more inclined to follow the teachings of Thoth and our ancient philosophies that tell us that reincarnation is a darkness imposed upon us and a cycle from which we must escape by discovering the divine within us, thereby casting off the flesh and the need to reincarnate.
Therefore I will leave you to your Ra material and wish you wisdom and revelation. I have mistakenly assumed that the Law of One was unique, but as with many things it has also been spread abroad. I am not sure that this global communication is always a good thing. We have enemies of our teaching, and although I have not studied the Ra Material and therefore cannot say what your group may or may not be. However, I do see teaching here that I know to be not of the Light, and so I would not want to intrude where my thoughts would not be welcomed or may cause agitation to you. I now realize why I had been brought here, and it was not to bring Light, but to become aware of a particular dark enemy that does reside here whom I will not name, but will evade at all cost. Beware the Son of Belial that walks among you. You must discern that one for yourselves for they are masters of infiltration, deception and seduction.
Harmony and Unselfish Love to you All,
Namaste

Hello Shin'Ar,
To share your thoughts with respect for other members of the community, to disagree about an idea while loving the author of the idea, is completely welcome here. In fact our goal is not uniformity of thought but disagreement in love. (Disagreement implying a non-alignment of surface-level thoughts, love implying a deeper, more fundamental, and thus more important recognition of the Creator in the other.)
At any rate, if you have your own take on what the Law of One is, or that reincarnation is a "darkness imposed upon us", or that "teachings" here are not what you would define as coming from "the light", okay, great. Like you wrote above:
"One truth you should All remember is that every being relates opinion and within that can be error as with any other opinion. All teachings are afflicted with this and it is the obligation of the true wanderer or seeker to discern what seems wrong as much as what seems right."
I think most of us, more or less, approach the seeking of truth with that humility, with that understanding that our opinions don't encompass or encapsulate or capture ultimate reality, and are limited and distorted, and will evolve as we evolve. Though we all, myself included, certainly and pridefully get stuck on our own opinions, I think most if not all of us have the capacity to step back and recognize the subjective and impermanent nature of our thoughts patterns.
If you would like to share your opinions with the community regarding ultimate truth or relative truth, or whether there is a difference, or what is and is not illusion, and what the role of the human is in the cosmos, and what our relationship to the Creator is, and so on and so forth - this is all great fodder for philosophical discussion and is welcome. You are not, as you mention above, "intruding", or causing "agitation", though you may naturally meet disagreement. To whatever extent I'm able to determine these things, you seem positively oriented, willing to take responsibility, caring, and intent on framing your opinions so as to respect other members of the community. This is paramount, and appreciated. In other words, please feel free to share and participate!
We do however have a basic prerequisite for participation -- that being familiarity with that body of work alternately known as the "Law of One" books or "The Ra Material". Do you have to agree with everything in the Law of One material? Nope. Do you have to uphold it as the representing final truth? Not at all. But, this forum, though it serves many functions, is built first and foremost as a place of shared study and discussion about this particular body of material.
