Are you going to take the vaccine?

[Louisabell]

Since there are many interesting links you guys posted, here is another one.
A very interesting „talk“ about the subject I came across:

After reviewing the video that was posted above, it would seem that the biggest concern people have with the COVID vaccine causing "permanent damage" is because it is an RNA vaccine. I am actually quite excited about this new generation of RNA vaccine because there is no need to add adjuvants (chemicals which agitate the immune system like mercury or aluminum) or preservatives, which have been the main causes of concern in previous vaccines. This vaccine is therefore potentially much safer. 

If one would like to get informed, below is a great interview discussing this type of vaccine with Professor Shane Crotty, PhD (La Jolla Institute for Immunology, Center for Infectious Disease and Vaccine Research, Crotty Lab and the University of California San Diago). Many good questions were asked.



I will take the vaccine as I want to be part of the solution to eradicate this disease, and it will likely be a requirement to travel to the USA, which I would like to do in the near future as my sister and nephew live in NYC. If I turn into a crazed zombie, I'll let you all know! (right before I try to eat your brains of course) I kid!

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and this is a discussion board, so that's why we are here. The whole COVID situation is very divisive. Many people seem to think "the other side" of the vaccination issue is deluded. This reminds me of politics here in the US, where Republicans think Democrats are idiots/wrong and vice versa. One might say I am being cavalier in that analogy, but recall that governments send hundreds of thousands of people to war to maim and kill other people (not to mention the wildlife and environment in the wake of it).

I personally don't like the inference in this thread that in order to be STO one must take the vaccine. This kind of thinking reminds me of the Christian Jesus, who died for others' sins. If I were to believe that, I would argue that Jesus had no right to do that, to take away catalyst from others and even more, take away their responsibility and accountability.

Service to others is not so simple as everything you do is for others. This leads to martyrdom, and as Ra pointed out, this is not a state that is in balance. It seems to me that extremity either way on this issue might be examined in the light of balance and free will. I will repost Ra's words on a contagion:

34.7 ▶ Questioner: Do what we call contagious diseases play any part in this process with respect to the unmanifested self?

Ra: I am Ra. These so-called contagious diseases are those entities of second density which offer an opportunity for this type of catalyst. If this catalyst is unneeded, then these second-density creatures, as you would call them, do not have an effect. In each of these generalizations you may please note that there are anomalies so that we cannot speak to every circumstance but only to the general run or way of things as you experience them.

Well, we can't help that inferences get made. I do believe that getting the COVID vaccine in order to reduce potentially spreading the disease to more vulnerable people is a STO act. Choosing not to take the vaccine doesn't mean you're not a STO person in general, but in that specific choice, I don't see how it's STO. Not everything is a slippery slope to martyrdom. It's only an act of martyrdom if you truly believe that the vaccine has a significant chance to kill or maim you. I acknowledge that some people do believe that, so for them, it would be an act of martyrdom. But usually, it is the very people who would recover from COVID easily (the young with strong immune systems) that are also the best candidates to take the vaccine.

In my interpretation of the text, the standard of "not needing catalyst" is very high. There is catalyst that works on the societal self, and even wanderers come to Earth to help ameliorate societal karma (that they may of had no personal hand in creating). Catalyst is no longer needed when it offers no more teach/learning. I see this COVID situation as offering much learn/teaching for humanity on the global and individual scale... I mean it's allowing us to have this discussion, isn't it?

54.18 Questioner: Which entities incarnate at this time on this planet would be of that category, manufacturing all of their catalyst?

Ra: I am Ra. We find your query indeterminate but can respond that the number of those which have mastered outer catalyst completely is quite small.

Most of those harvestable at this space/time nexus have partial control over the outer illusion and are using the outer catalyst to work upon some bias which is not yet in balance.
