"The power of the group goes up much faster than the number of people. I've said elsewhere it can be compared to a laser. Ordinary light is called 'incoherent,' which means that it is going in all sorts of directions, and the light waves are not in phase with each other so they don't build up. But a laser produces a avery intense beam which is coherent. The light waves build up strength because they are all going in the same direction.
"Now, you could say that our ordinary thought in society is incoherent. It is going in all sorts of directions, with thoughts conflicting and canceling each other out. But if people were to think together in a coherent way, it would have tremendous power."
David Bohm, Physicist (quantum)
This seems like a good description of what a mind/body/spirit complex like Ra could achieve easily, or perhaps exists in this way consistently. The inference is that we can do it too, but for us it would take organizing it and making it happen. Then there is the idea also, that as society gels in its beliefs, those beliefs hold sway, and can work as a mechanism for change (evolution) when enough individuals accept a new paradigm (hundredth monkey).
