The undeniable truth of Darkness and STS

[Plenum]

thanks Gary. Excellent post.

I would also possibly add that in addition to the definitions of STO and STS that Ra presents, a particularly nuanced view of Free Will is also enunciated.

This Law of Free Will is also referenced as the Law of Confusion, which highlights that invasions of Free Will do not only occur at the physical/action level, but also apply to issues of information and who/how it is conveyed.

to an outsider (and this is not just referring to this case) this fine understanding of Free Will might seem like un-necessary logic chopping.

but it IS the First Distortion, and from which this whole experience of Reality takes place. The understandings we have of STO and STS spring from this foundation stone - as you have referenced here:

Service to others:

---

Seeks to respect the free will of all others and intends to reduce all possible infringement on the free will of others.

Service to self :

---

Seeks to infringe upon the free will of others. The Creator is seen only in the self, others deemed inferior to the self.

perhaps this debate of STO and STS might be more enlightening if we go back ONE STEP, back to where it all began.

THE FIRST DISTORTION.
