Ra on Patience (one quality amongst many)

[Plenum]

I thought I'd collect a few patience quotes for my own consideration.

thank you for your patience.

5.2 The polarity of your dimension must be internalized. Where you find patience within your mind you must consciously find the corresponding impatience and vice versa. Each thought that a being has, has in its turn an antithesis. The disciplines of the mind involve, first of all, identifying both those things of which you approve and those things of which you disapprove within yourself, and then balancing each and every positive and negative charge with its equal. The mind contains all things. Therefore, you must discover this completeness within yourself.

18.5 It is, shall we say, a shortcut to simply ignore or overcome any desire. It must instead be understood and accepted. This takes patience and experience which can be analyzed with care, with compassion for self and for other-self.

35.4 We have advised and suggested caution and patience in previous communications and do so again, using this entity as an example of the over-hasty opening of polarization without due attention to the synthesized and integrated mind/body/spirit complex. To know your self is to have the foundation upon firm ground.

42.9 Thus the gradual increase in the ability to observe one’s reactions and to know the self will bring the self ever closer to a true balance. Patience is requested and suggested, for the catalyst is intense upon your plane and its use must be appreciated over a period of consistent learn/teaching.

43.18 This is incorrect. The fourth-density being desires to serve and the preparation of foodstuffs is extremely simple due to increased communion between entity and living foodstuff. Therefore, this is not a significant catalyst but rather a simple precondition of the space/time experience. The catalyst involved is the necessity for the ingestion of foodstuffs. This is not considered to be of importance by fourth-density entities and it, therefore, aids in the teach/learning of patience.

105.22 Therefore look you to your love and thanksgiving for each other and join always in fellowship, correcting each broken strand of that affection with patience, comfort, and quietness. We find all meticulously observed in the alignments and give you these words only as reminder. All that can be done for the instrument seems done with an whole heart, and the instrument itself is working in the indigo ray with perseverance.

I sort of want to keep driving in the fast lane of spirituality; when sometimes one needs to sit back, and digest the material thoroughly.

namaste friends!

Yes this is one of my biggest challenges in my life as I have recognized the pattern of impatience throughout numerous instances of this incarnation. Especially considering my life is in quite a state of disarray in just about every single aspect, it's quite difficult and almost seems impossible to keep the faith in the creators will and the predetermined plan by my higher self that this will work out.

I keep reminding myself that things will be ok but there are times like over just the past 5 days when catalysts such as my car breaking down and I don't have the money to fix it, the girl that I cared very much for breaks it off with me, being relegated to only every other weekend with my daughter instead of every weekend, allergies going insane, along with not being able to find a second job while sleeping on a mattress on my parents living room floor makes one definitely wonder why so many catalysts must be activated at once

The Lesser Work of the Alchemist, in the Black Phase, whereby the athanor (body) temperament or temperature must be kept even over an extended period of time by the maintenance of the flame and constant attention to its heat to allow for the raw matter to process and blend alchemically, translates psychologically as the development of patience, mindfulness and awareness within the alchemist.

Eternal, your Alchemical analogy is nearly identical to the way I have both understood and experienced it.

First, "Temperance" in the tarot card is an well-known double-entendre for the tempering of steel. The crystallization of this archetype for me coincided with discovering this old Chinese quote on the day of the Venus transit:

"Only with tempering is steel produced"

Translates to me as maintenance of the flame of experience with care and patience until the given the crystallization point is reached and steel is produced.

This is new because i can see in my psychology that i both get and not get what you mean.

These are rare these days and mean that should i try to fully understand the quote, a quest/experience/journey will be involved.

Thanks for the adventure =D

Well...ahem...I feel compelled to reply here......I am impatient for Homecoming, and excited and pleased that (more than the usual number of) regular posters on this board will attend. This is 2012, folks...we should have a party.

Please do not hold it against me, that I have an issue with patience here. We all have our lessons to learn in third density.

In some versions the Temperance card is even called the Alchemist. This is a good proverb which expresses this very principle. With patience comes integrity, for care is then put in to work, and with integrity comes strength and consistency.
