			THE LAW OF ONE
 
			Book IVBy Ra, an humble messenger of The Law of One
 
			  
				
					
						| Book Four explores in great detail the archetypical mind which is 
			the framework provided by our Logos or sun body to aid each of us in 
			the evolution of mind, body, and spirit. Tarot, astrology, and 
			ritual magic are three paths offering the study of the archetypical 
			mind, and in Book Four a study of that rich resource is undertaken 
			using the tarot, which Ra gave to the Egyptians 11,000 years ago. 
			Information is also uncovered on the nature and purpose of the veil 
			that we experience between the conscious and the unconscious minds 
			and the process of “forgetting” that occurs during each incarnation 
			in our third-density experience. In Book Four the path of the adept 
			becomes more clear as Ra elucidates the adept’s use of experience to 
			balance its energy centers and penetrate the veil of forgetting.

			RA, Session #76, February 3, 1982 
				
				RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One 
			Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
 
				QUESTIONER: Could you first please give me an indication of the 
			condition of the instrument?RA: I am Ra. This instrument is in a state of physical complex 
			bankruptcy which has existed for some of the measure you call time. 
			The vital energies are normal with a strong spiritual complex 
			counterpart and will lending substance to the mind/body/spirit 
			complex energy levels.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Will our continued communication with Ra be deleterious 
			to the physical energies of the instrument?RA: I am Ra. We may answer in two modes. Firstly, if the instrument 
			were thusly dedicated to this use with no transfer of energy of 
			physical complex nature it would begin to call upon the vital energy 
			itself and this, done in any substantive measure, is actively 
			deleterious to a mind/body/spirit complex if that complex wishes 
			further experience in the illusion which it now distorts.
 
				Secondly, if care is taken, firstly, to monitor the outer parameters 
			of the instrument, then to transfer physical energy by sexual 
			transfer, by magical protection, and, lastly, by the energetic 
			displacements of thought-forms energizing the instrument during 
			contact there is no difficulty in that there is no worsening of the 
			instrument’s mind/body/spirit complex distortions of 
			strength/weakness.
 
				It is to be noted that the instrument, by dedicating itself to this 
			service, attracts greetings of which you are aware. These are 
			inconvenient but, with care taken, need not be lastingly deleterious 
			either to the instrument or the contact.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Of the three things that you mentioned that we could do 
			for the instrument’s benefit, would you clarify the last one? I 
			didn’t quite understand what you meant.RA: I am Ra. As the entity which you are allows its being to 
			empathize with any other being, so then it may choose to share with 
			the other-self those energies which may be salubrious to the 
			other-self. The mechanism of these energy transfers is the thought 
			or, more precisely, the thought-form for any thought is a form or 
			symbol or thing that is an object seen in time/space reference.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Has our use of the Banishing Ritual of the Lesser 
			Pentagram been of any value and what is its effect?RA: I am Ra. This group’s use of the Banishing Ritual of the Lesser 
			Pentagram has been increasingly efficacious. Its effect is 
			purification, cleansing, and protection of the place of working.
 
				The efficacy of this ritual is only beginning to be, shall we say, 
			at the lower limits of the truly magical. In doing the working those 
			aspiring to adepthood have done the equivalent of beginning the 
			schoolwork, many grades ahead. For the intelligent student this is 
			not to be discouraged; rather to be encouraged is the homework, the 
			reading, the writing, the arithmetic, as you might metaphorically 
			call the elementary steps towards the study of being. It is the 
			being that informs the working, not the working that informs the 
			being. Therefore, we may leave you to the work you have begun.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Would it be beneficial for us to perform the banishing 
			ritual more in this room?RA: I am Ra. It is beneficial to regularly work in this place.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I am sorry that we have had such a long delay between 
			the last session and this one. It couldn’t be helped I guess. Could 
			you please tell me the origin of the tarot?RA: I am Ra. The origin of this system of study and divination is 
			twofold:
 
				firstly, there is that influence which, coming in a distorted 
			fashion from those who were priests attempting to teach the Law of 
			One in Egypt, gave form to the understanding, if you will pardon the 
			misnomer, which they had received. These forms were then made a 
			regular portion of the learn/teachings of an initiate.
   
				The second 
			influence is that of those entities in the lands you call Ur, Chaldea, and Mesopotamia who, from old, had received the, shall we 
			say, data for which they called having to do with the heavens. 
			Thusly we find two methods of divination being melded into one with 
			uneven results; the, as you call it, astrology and the form being 
			combined to suggest what you might call the correspondences which 
			are typical of the distortions you may see as attempts to view 
			archetypes.
 
				QUESTIONER: Then am I correct in assuming that the priests of Egypt, 
			in attempting to convert knowledge that they had received initially 
			from Ra into understandable symbology, constructed and initiated the 
			concept of the tarot? Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is correct with the addition of the Sumerian 
			influence.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Were Ra’s teachings focusing on the archetypes for this 
			Logos and the methods of achieving a very close approach to the 
			archetypical configuration? Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is correct without being true. We, of Ra, are 
			humble messengers of the Law of One. We seek to teach/learn this 
			single law. During the space/time of the Egyptian teach/learning we 
			worked to bring the mind complex, the body complex, and the spirit 
			complex into an initiated state in which the entity could contact 
			intelligent energy and so become teach/learner itself so that 
			healing and the fruits of study could be offered to all. The study 
			of the roots of mind is a portion of the vivification of the mind 
			complex and, as we have noted, the thorough study of the portion of 
			the roots of mind called archetypical is an interesting and 
			necessary portion of the process as a whole.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is there, in Ra’s opinion, any present day value for the 
			use of the tarot as an aid in the evolutionary process?RA: I am Ra. We shall repeat information. It is appropriate to study 
			one form of constructed and organized distortion of the archetypical 
			mind in depth in order to arrive at the position of being able to 
			become and to experience archetypes at will. You have three basic 
			choices. You may choose astrology, the twelve signs, as you call 
			these portions of your planet’s energy web, and what has been called 
			the ten planets. You may choose the tarot with its twenty-two 
			so-called Major Arcana. You may choose the study of the so-called 
			Tree of Life with its ten Sephiroth and the twenty-two relationships 
			between the stations.
 
				It is well to investigate each discipline, not as a dilettante, but 
			as one who seeks the touchstone, one who wishes to feel the pull of 
			the magnet. One of these studies will be more attractive to the 
			seeker. Let the seeker, then, investigate the archetypical mind 
			using, basically, one of these three disciplines. After a period of 
			study, the discipline mastered sufficiently, the seeker may then 
			complete the more important step: that is, the moving beyond the 
			written in order to express in an unique fashion its understanding, 
			if you may again pardon the noun, of the archetypical mind.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Would I be correct in saying that the archetypes of this 
			particular Logos are somewhat unique with respect to the rest of the 
			creation? The systems of study that we have just talked about would 
			not translate quickly or easily in other parts of the creation. This 
			is a very difficult question to state. Could you clear that up for 
			me?RA: I am Ra. We may draw from the welter of statement which you 
			offer the question we believe you ask. Please requestion if we have 
			mistaken your query. The archetypical mind is that mind which is 
			peculiar to the Logos under which influence you are at this 
			space/time distorting your experiences. There is no other Logos the 
			archetypical mind of which would be the same any more than the stars 
			would appear the same from another planet in another galaxy. You may 
			correctly infer that the closer Logoi are indeed closer in 
			archetypes.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Since Ra evolved initially on Venus Ra is of the same 
			archetypical origin as that which we experience here. Is this 
			correct?RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: But I am assuming that the concepts of the tarot and the 
			magical concepts of the Tree of Life, etc. were not in use by Ra. I 
			suspect, possibly, some form of astrology was a previous Ra concept. 
			This is just a guess. Am I correct?RA: I am Ra. To express Ra’s methods of study of the archetypical 
			mind under the system of distortions which we enjoyed would be to 
			skew your own judgment of that which is appropriate for the system 
			of distortions forming the conditions in which you learn/teach. 
			Therefore, we must invoke the Law of Confusion.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I am going to ask some questions now that may be a 
			little off the center of what we are trying to do. I’m not sure 
			because I’m trying to, with these questions, unscramble something 
			that I consider very basic to what we are doing. Please forgive my 
			lack of ability in questioning since this is a difficult concept for 
			me.Could you give me an idea of the length of the first and second 
			densities as they occurred for this planet?
 RA: I am Ra. There is no method of estimation of the time/space 
			before timelessness gave way in your first density. To the 
			beginnings of your time, the measurement would be vast and yet this 
			vastness is meaningless. Upon the entry into the constructed 
			space/time your first density spanned a bridge of space/time and 
			time/space of perhaps two billion of your years.
 
				Second density is more easily estimated and represents your longest 
			density in terms of the span of space/time. We may estimate that 
			time as approximately 4.6 billion years. These approximations are 
			exceedingly rough due to the somewhat uneven development which is 
			characteristic of creations which are built upon the foundation 
			stone of free will.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Did you state that second density was 4.6 billion years? 
			B, b-i-l?Is that correct?
 RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then we have a third density that is, comparatively 
			speaking, the twinkling of an eye, the snap of a finger in time 
			compared to the others. Why is the third density cycled so extremely 
			rapidly compared to the first and second?RA: I am Ra. The third density is a choice.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Third density, then, compared to the rest of the 
			densities, all of them, is nothing but a uniquely short period of 
			what we consider to be time and is for the purpose of this choice.Is this correct?
 RA: I am Ra. This is precisely correct. The prelude to choice must 
			encompass the laying of the foundation, the establishment of the 
			illusion and the viability of that which can be made spiritually 
			viable. The remainder of the densities is continuous refining of the 
			choice. This also is greatly lengthened, as you would use the term. 
			The choice is, as you put it, the work of a moment but is the axis 
			upon which the creation turns.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is this third-density choice the same throughout all of 
			the creation of which you are aware?RA: I am Ra. We are aware of creations in which third density is 
			lengthier and more space/time is given to the choosing. However, the 
			proportions remain the same, the dimensions all being somewhat 
			etiolated and weakened by the Logos to have a variant experience of 
			the Creator. This creation is seen by us to be quite vivid.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I didn’t understand what you meant by what you said “as 
			seen by you to be quite vivid”. What did you mean?RA: I am Ra. This creation is somewhat more condensed by its Logos 
			than some other Logoi have chosen. Thus each experience of the 
			Creator by the Creator in this system of distortions is, relatively 
			speaking, more bright or, as we said, vivid.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I am assuming that upon entry into third density, for 
			this planet, disease did not exist in any form. Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is incorrect.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What disease or form of disease was there and why did 
			this exist at the beginning of the third density?RA: I am Ra. Firstly, that which you speak of as disease is a 
			functional portion the body complex which offers the body complex 
			the opportunity to cease viability. This is a desirable body complex 
			function. The second portion of the answer has to do with 
			second-density other-selves of a microscopic, as you would call it, 
			size which have in some forms long existed and perform their service 
			by aiding the physical body complex in its function of ceasing 
			viability at the appropriate space/time.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What I am trying to understand is the difference between 
			the plan of the Logos for these second-density entities and the 
			generation of what I would guess to be more or less a runaway array 
			of feedback to create various physical problems to act as catalyst 
			in our present third-density condition. Could you give me an 
			indication of whether my thinking is anywhere near right on that?RA: I am Ra. This instrument’s physical body complex is becoming 
			more distorted towards pain. We shall, therefore, speak to this 
			subject as our last full query of this working. Your query contains 
			some internal confusion which causes the answer to be perhaps more 
			general than desired. We invite refinements of the query.
 
				The Logos planned for entities of mind/body/spirit complex to gain 
			experience until the amount of experience was sufficient for an 
			incarnation. This varied only slightly from second-density entities 
			whose mind/body complexes existed for the purpose of experiencing 
			growth and seeking consciousness. As the third density upon your 
			planet proceeded, as has been discussed, the need for the physical 
			body complex to cease became more rapidly approached due to 
			intensified and more rapidly gained catalyst. This catalyst was not 
			being properly assimilated. Therefore, the, shall we say, lifetimes 
			needed to be shorter that learning might continue to occur with the 
			proper rhythm and increment. Thus more and more opportunities have 
			been offered as your density has progressed for disease. May we ask 
			if there are further brief queries before we close?
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I have one question that is possibly of no value. You 
			don’t have to expand on it, but there is a crystal skull in the 
			possession of a woman near Toronto. It may be of some value in 
			investigating these communications with Ra since I think possibly 
			this had some origin from Ra. Can you tell me anything about that, 
			and then is there anything that we can do to improve the contact or 
			to make the instrument more comfortable?RA: I am Ra. Although your query is one which uncovers interesting 
			material we can not answer due to the potential an answer may have 
			for affecting your actions. The appurtenances are carefully placed 
			and requisite care taken. We are appreciative. All is well.
 
				I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, in the love and the light of the 
			One Infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, glorying and rejoicing in 
			the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
   
				
				Go Back 
			 
			  
			RA, Session #77, February 10, 1982 
				
				RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One 
			Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
 
				QUESTIONER: Could you please give me an indication of the condition 
			of the instrument?RA: I am Ra. It is as previously stated.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Was the instrument under attack just prior to this 
			session?RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is there anything that we could do to help protect the 
			instrument from these attacks prior to the session?RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What could we do?RA: I am Ra. Your group could refrain from continuing this contact.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is that the only thing that we could do?RA: I am Ra. That is the only thing you could do which you are not 
			already attempting with a whole heart.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I have three questions that the instrument asked me to 
			ask which I will get out of the way first. She wants to know if the 
			preparation for her hospital experience could be improved if she 
			should ever have to repeat it?RA: I am Ra. All was done well with one exception. The instrument 
			was instructed to spend space/time contemplating its self as the 
			Creator. This, done in a more determined fashion, would be 
			beneficial at times when the mind complex is weakened by severe 
			assaults upon the distortions of the body complex towards pain. 
			There is no necessity for negative thought-forms regardless of pain 
			distortions. The elimination of such creates the lack of possibility 
			for negative elementals and other negative entities to use these 
			thought-forms to create the worsening of the mind complex deviation 
			from the normal distortions of cheerfulness/anxiety.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: The instrument would also like to know if what we call 
			tuning could be improved during times when we do not communicate 
			with Ra?RA: I am Ra. That which has been stated in regard to the latter 
			question will suffice to point the way for the present query.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Finally, she wishes to know why several days ago her 
			heart rate went up to 115 per minute and why she had extreme pain in 
			her stomach? Was that an Orion greeting?RA: I am Ra. Although this experience was energized by the Orion 
			group the events mentioned, as well as others more serious, were 
			proximally caused by the ingestion of certain foodstuffs in what you 
			call your tablet form.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Can you tell me what these tablets were, specifically?RA: I am Ra. We examine this query for the Law of Confusion and find 
			ourselves close to the boundary, but acceptably so.
 The substance which caused the bodily reaction of the heartbeat was 
			called Pituitone by those which manufacture it. That which caused 
			the difficulty which seemed to be cramping of the lower abdominal 
			musculature but was, in fact, more organic in nature was a substance 
			called Spleentone.
 This instrument has a physical body complex of complicated balances 
			which afford it physical existence. Were the view taken that certain 
			functions and chemicals found in the healthy, as you call it, body 
			complex are lacking in this one and, therefore, simply must be 
			replenished, the intake of the many substances which this instrument 
			began would be appropriate. However, this particular physical 
			vehicle has, for approximately twenty-five of your years, been vital 
			due to the spirit, the mind, and the will being harmoniously 
			dedicated to fulfilling the service it chose to offer.
 Therefore, physical healing techniques are inappropriate whereas 
			mental and spiritual healing techniques are beneficial.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is there any technique that we could use that we have 
			not been using that would be beneficial for the instrument in this 
			case?RA: I am Ra. We might suggest, without fractiousness, two. Firstly, 
			let the instrument remove the possibility of further ingestion of 
			this group of foodstuffs.
 Secondly, each of the group may become aware of the will to a 
			greater extent. We cannot instruct upon this but merely indicate, as 
			we have previously, that it is a vital key to the evolution of the 
			mind/body/spirit complex.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Thank you. I would like to go back to the plan of this 
			Logos for Its creation and examine the philosophical basis that is 
			the foundation for what was created in this local creation and the 
			philosophy of the plan for experience. I am assuming that I am 
			correct in stating that the foundation for this, as has been stated 
			many times before, is the first distortion. After that, what was the 
			plan in the philosophical sense?RA: I am Ra. We cannot reply due to a needed portion of your query 
			which has been omitted; that is, do we speak of this particular 
			Logos?
 
 
				QUESTIONER: That is correct. I am asking with respect to this 
			particular sub-Logos, our sun.RA: I am Ra. This query has substance. We shall begin by turning to 
			an observation of a series of concept complexes of which you are 
			familiar as the tarot.
 The philosophy was to create a foundation, first of mind, then of 
			body, and then of spiritual complex. Those concept complexes you 
			call the tarot lie then in three groups of seven: the mind cycle, 
			one through seven; the physical complex cycle, eight through 
			fourteen; the spiritual complex cycle, fifteen through twenty-one. 
			The last concept complex may best be termed The Choice.
 Upon the foundation of the transformation of each complex, with free 
			will guided by the root concepts offered in these cycles, the Logos 
			offered this density the basic architecture of a building and the 
			constructing and synthesizing of data culminating in The Choice.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then to condense your statement, I see it meaning that 
			there are seven basic philosophical foundations for mental 
			experience, seven for bodily, seven for spiritual, and that these 
			produce the polarization that we experience sometime during the 
			third-density cycle. Am I correct?RA: I am Ra. You are correct in that you perceive the content of our 
			prior statement with accuracy. You are incorrect in that you have no 
			mention of the, shall we say, location of all of these concept 
			complexes; that is, they exist within the roots of the mind and it 
			is from this resource that their guiding influence and leitmotifs 
			may be traced. You may further note that each foundation is itself 
			not single but a complex of concepts. Furthermore, there are 
			relationships betwixt mind, body, and spirit of the same location in 
			octave, for instance: one, eight, fifteen, and relationships within 
			each octave which are helpful in the pursuit of The Choice by the 
			mind/body/spirit complex. The Logos under which these foundations 
			stand is one of free will. Thusly the foundations may be seen to 
			have unique facets and relationships for each mind/body/spirit 
			complex. Only twenty-two, The Choice, is relatively fixed and 
			single.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then I am probably having a problem with the concept of 
			time since it appears that the Logos was aware of the polarization 
			choice. It seems that this choice for polarization at the end of 
			third density is an important philosophical plan for the experience 
			past third density. Am I correct in assuming that this process is a 
			process to create the proper or desired experience that will take 
			place in the creation after third density is complete?RA: I am Ra. These philosophical foundations are those of third 
			density. Above this density there remains the recognition of the 
			architecture of the Logos but without the veils which are so 
			integral a part of the process of making the choice in third 
			density.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: The specific question that I had was that it seems to me 
			that the choice was planned to create intense polarization past 
			third density so that experience would be intense past third 
			density. Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. Given that our interpretation of your sound vibration 
			complexes is appropriate, this is incorrect. The intensity of fourth 
			density is that of the refining of the rough-hewn sculpture. This 
			is, indeed, in its own way, quite intense causing the 
			mind/body/spirit complex to move ever inward and onward in its quest 
			for fuller expression. However, in third density the statue is 
			forged in the fire. This is a type of intensity which is not the 
			property of fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh densities.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What I am really attempting to understand, since all of 
			these twenty-one philosophical bases result in the twenty-second 
			which is The Choice, is why this choice is so important, why the 
			Logos seems to put so much emphasis on this choice, and what 
			function this choice of polarity has, precisely, in the evolution or 
			the experience of that which is created by the Logos?RA: I am Ra. The polarization or choosing of each mind/body/spirit 
			is necessary for harvestability from third density. The higher 
			densities do their work due to the polarity gained in this choice.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Would it be possible for this work of our density to be 
			performed if all of the sub-Logoi chose the same polarity in any 
			particular expression or evolution of a Logos? Let us make the 
			assumption that our sun created nothing but, through the first 
			distortion, positive polarity. There was no product except positive 
			polarity. Would work then be done in fourth density and higher as a 
			function of only the positive polarization evolving from the 
			original creation of our sub-Logos?RA: I am Ra. Elements of this query illustrate the reason I was 
			unable to answer your previous question without knowledge of the 
			Logos involved. To turn to your question, there were Logoi which 
			chose to set the plan for the activation of mind/body/spirit 
			complexes through each true color body without recourse to the prior 
			application of free will. It is, to our knowledge, only in an 
			absence of free will that the conditions of which you speak obtain. 
			In such a procession of densities you find an extraordinarily long, 
			as you measure time, third-density; likewise, fourth density. Then, 
			as the entities begin to see the Creator, there is a very rapid, as 
			you measure time, procession towards the eighth density. This is due 
			to the fact that one who knows not, cares not.
 Let us illustrate by observing the relative harmony and unchanging 
			quality of existence in one of your, as you call it, primitive 
			tribes. The entities have the concepts of lawful and taboo, but the 
			law is inexorable and all events occur as predestined. There is no 
			concept of right and wrong, good or bad. It is a culture in 
			monochrome. In this context you may see the one you call Lucifer as 
			the true light-bringer in that the knowledge of good and evil both 
			precipitated the mind/body/spirits of this Logos from the Edenic 
			conditions of constant contentment and also provided the impetus to 
			move, to work and to learn.
 Those Logoi whose creations have been set up without free will have 
			not, in the feeling of those Logoi, given the Creator the quality 
			and variety of experience of Itself as have those Logoi which have 
			incorporated free will as paramount. Thusly you find those Logoi 
			moving through the timeless states at what you would see as a later 
			space/time to choose the free will character when elucidating the 
			foundations of each Logos.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I guess, under the first distortion, it was the free 
			will of the Logos to choose to evolve without free will. Is this 
			correct?RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Do the Logoi that choose this type of evolution choose 
			both the service-to-self and the service-to-others path for 
			different Logoi, or do they choose just one of the paths?RA: I am Ra. Those, what you would call, early Logoi which chose 
			lack of free will foundations, to all extents with no exceptions, 
			founded Logoi of the service-to-others path. The, shall we say, saga 
			of polarity, its consequences and limits, were unimagined until 
			experienced.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: In other words you are saying that originally the Logoi 
			that did not choose this free will path did not choose it simply 
			because they had not conceived of it and that later Logoi, extending 
			the first distortion farther down through their evolution, 
			experienced it as an outcropping or growth from that extension of 
			the first distortion. Am I correct in saying that?RA: I am Ra. Yes.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then did this particular Logos that we experience plan 
			for this polarity and know all about it prior to its plan? I suspect 
			that this is what happened.RA: I am Ra. This is quite correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: In that case, as a Logos, you would have an advantage of 
			selecting the form of acceleration, you might say, of spiritual 
			evolution by planning what we call the major archetypical 
			philosophical foundations and planning these as a function of the 
			polarity that would be gained in third density. Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is exquisitely correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: In that case, it seems that a thorough knowledge of the 
			precise nature of these philosophical foundations would be of 
			primary importance to the study of evolution of mind, body, and 
			spirit, and I would like to carefully go through each, starting with 
			the mind. Is this agreeable with Ra?RA: I am Ra. This is agreeable with two requests which must be made. 
			Firstly, that an attempt be made to state the student’s grasp of 
			each archetype. We may then comment. We cannot teach/learn to the 
			extent of learn/teaching. Secondly, we request that it be constantly 
			kept before the mind, as the candle before the eye, that each 
			mind/body/spirit complex shall and should and, indeed, must perceive 
			each archetype, if you use this convenient term, in its own way. 
			Therefore, you may see that precision is not the goal; rather the 
			quality of general concept complex perception is the goal.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Now, there are several general concepts that I would 
			like to be sure that we have clear before going into this process 
			and I will certainly adhere to the requests that you have just 
			stated.When our Logos designed this particular evolution of experience It 
			decided to use a system of which we spoke allowing for polarization 
			through total free will. How is this different from the Logos that 
			does not do this? I see the Logos creating the possibility of 
			increase in vibration through the densities. How are the densities 
			provided for and set by the Logos, if you can answer this?
 RA: I am Ra. This shall be the last full query of this working. The 
			psychic attack upon this instrument has, shall we say, left scars 
			which must be tended, in our own opinion, in order to maintain the 
			instrument.
 Let us observe your second density. Many come more rapidly to third 
			density than others not because of an innate efficiency of catalysis 
			but because of unusual opportunities for investment. In just such a 
			way those of fourth density may invest third, those of fifth density 
			may invest fourth. When fifth density has been obtained the process 
			takes upon itself a momentum based upon the characteristics of 
			wisdom when applied to circumstance. The Logos Itself, then, in 
			these instances provides investment opportunities, if you wish to 
			use that term. May we enquire if there are any brief queries at this 
			space/time?
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is there anything that we can do after this contact to 
			increase the comfort as related to the psychic attack, or is there 
			anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable and 
			to improve the contact in the present situation?RA: I am Ra. The faculties of healing which each has commenced 
			energizing may be used. The entity may be encouraged to remain 
			motionless for a period. As it will not appreciate this, we suggest 
			the proper discussion.
 The physical appurtenance called the censer was just a degree off, 
			this having no deeper meaning. We do ask, for reasons having to do 
			with the physical comfort of the instrument, that you continue in 
			your careful efforts at alignment. You are conscientious. All is 
			well.
 We leave you, my friends, in the glorious love and light of the One 
			Creator. Go forth, therefore, rejoicing in the power and in the 
			peace of the One Infinite Creator. I am Ra. Adonai.

 RA, Session #78, February 19, 1982
 
				
				RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One 
			Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
 
				QUESTIONER: Was there some problem with the ritual we performed that 
			made it necessary to perform the ritual twice?RA: I am Ra. There was a misstep which created a momentary lapse of 
			concentration. This was not well.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What was the misstep?RA: I am Ra. It was a missed footing.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Did this have any detrimental effect on the instrument?RA: I am Ra. Very little. The instrument felt the presence it has 
			come to associate with cold and spoke. The instrument did the 
			appropriate thing.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Could you tell me the condition of the instrument?RA: I am Ra. The physical complex is as previously stated. There is 
			some slight loss of vital energy. The basic complex distortions are 
			similar to your previous asking.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: The instrument would like for me to ask if there is any 
			problem with her kidneys?RA: I am Ra. This query is more complex than its brevity certifies. 
			The physical complex renal system of this instrument is much 
			damaged. The time/space equivalent which rules the body complex is 
			without flaw. There was a serious question, due to psychic attack, 
			as to whether the spiritual healing of this system would endure. It 
			did so but has the need to be re-enforced by affirmation of the 
			ascendancy of the spiritual over the apparent or visible.
 When this instrument began ingesting substances designed to heal in 
			a physical sense, among other things, the renal complex, this 
			instrument was ceasing the affirmation of healing. Due to this, 
			again, the healing was weakened. This is of some profound distortion 
			and it would be well for the instrument to absorb these concepts. We 
			ask your forgiveness for offering information which may abridge free 
			will, but the dedication of the instrument is such that it would 
			persevere regardless of its condition, if possible. Thusly we offer 
			this information that it may persevere with a fuller distortion 
			towards comfort.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: What was the experience that caused the healing of the 
			time/space kidney?RA: I am Ra. This experience was the healing of self by self with 
			the catalyst of the spiritual healer whom you call Pachita.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Thank you. In utilizing the energetic displacements of 
			thought-forms energizing the instrument during contact most 
			efficiently, what specifically could we do?RA: I am Ra. Each of the support group has an excess of love and 
			light to offer the instrument during the working. Already each sends 
			to the instrument love, light, and thoughts of strength of the 
			physical, mental, and spiritual configurations. These sendings are 
			forms. You may refine these sendings until the fullest 
			manifestations of love and light are sent into the energy web of 
			this entity which functions as instrument. Your exact sending is, in 
			order to be most potent, the creature of your own making.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Thank you. I am going to go back to an earlier time, if 
			you could call it that, in evolution to try to establish a very 
			fundamental base for some of the concepts that seem to be the 
			foundation of everything that we experience so that we can more 
			fully examine the basis of our evolution.I am guessing that in our Milky Way Galaxy (the major galaxy with 
			billions of stars) that the progress of evolution was from the 
			center outward toward the rim and that in the early evolution of 
			this galaxy the first distortion was not extended down past the 
			sub-Logos simply because it was not thought of or conceived of and 
			that this extension of the first distortion, which created 
			polarization, was something that occurred in what we would call a 
			later time as the evolution progressed outward from the center of 
			the galaxy. Am I in any way correct in this statement?
 RA: I am Ra. You are correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: We have the first, second, and third distortions of the 
			Law of One as free will, love, and light. Am I correct in assuming 
			that the central core of this major galaxy began to form with the 
			third distortion? Was that the origin of our Milky Way Galaxy?RA: I am Ra. In the most basic or teleological sense you are 
			incorrect as the One Infinite Creator is all that there is. In an 
			undistorted seed-form you are correct in seeing the first 
			manifestation visible to the eye of the body complex which you 
			inhabit as the third distortion, light, or to use a technical term, 
			limitless light.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I realize that we are on very difficult ground, you 
			might say, for precise terminology. It is totally displaced from our 
			system of coordinates for evaluation in our present system of 
			language.These early Logoi that formed in the center of the galaxy wished, I 
			assume, to create a system of experience for the One Creator. Did 
			they then start with no previous experience or information about how 
			to do this? This is difficult to ask.
 RA: I am Ra. At the beginning of this creation or, as you may call 
			it, octave there were those things known which were the harvest of 
			the preceding octave. About the preceding creation, we know as 
			little as we do of the octave to come. However, we are aware of 
			those pieces of gathered concept which were the tools which the 
			Creator had in the knowing of the self.
 These tools were of three kinds. Firstly, there was an awareness of 
			the efficiency for experience of mind, body, and spirit. Secondly, 
			there was an awareness of the most efficacious nature or, if you 
			will, significator of mind, body, and spirit. Thirdly, there was the 
			awareness of two aspects of mind, of body, and of spirit that the 
			significator could use to balance all catalyst. You may call these 
			two the matrix and the potentiator.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Could you elaborate please on the nature and quality of 
			the matrix and the potentiator?RA: I am Ra. In the mind complex the matrix may be described as 
			consciousness. It has been called the Magician. It is to be noted 
			that of itself consciousness is unmoved. The potentiator of 
			consciousness is the unconscious. This encompasses a vast realm of 
			potential in the mind.
 In the body the matrix may be seen as Balanced Working or Even 
			Functioning. Note that here the matrix is always active with no 
			means of being inactive. The potentiator of the body complex, then, 
			may be called Wisdom for it is only through judgment that the 
			unceasing activities and proclivities of the body complex may be 
			experienced in useful modes.
 The Matrix of the Spirit is what you may call the Night of the Soul 
			or Primeval Darkness. Again we have that which is not capable of 
			movement or work. The potential power of this extremely receptive 
			matrix is such that the potentiator may be seen as Lightning. In 
			your archetypical system called the tarot this has been refined into 
			the concept complex of the Lightning Struck Tower. However, the 
			original potentiator was light in its sudden and fiery form; that 
			is, the lightning itself.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Would you elucidate with respect to the significator you 
			spoke of?RA: I am Ra. The original significators may undifferentiatedly be 
			termed the mind, the body, and the spirit.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then we have, at the beginning of this galactic 
			evolution, an archetypical mind that is the product of the previous 
			octave which this galaxy then used as and acts upon under the first 
			distortion so as to allow for what we experience as polarity. Was 
			there any concept of polarity carried through from the previous 
			octave in the sense of service-to-others or service-to-self 
			polarity?RA: I am Ra. There was polarity in the sense of the mover and the 
			moved. There was no polarity in the sense of service-to-self and 
			service-to-others.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then the first experiences, as you say, were in 
			monochrome. Was the concept of the seven densities of vibration with 
			the evolutionary process taking place in discrete densities carried 
			through from the previous octave?RA: I am Ra. To the limits of our knowledge, which are narrow, the 
			ways of the octave are without time; that is, there are seven 
			densities in each creation infinitely.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then I am assuming that the central suns of our galaxy, 
			in starting the evolutionary process in this galaxy, provided for, 
			in their plans, the refinement of consciousness through the 
			densities just as we experience it here. However, they did not 
			conceive of the polarization of consciousness with respect to 
			service-to-self and service-to-others. Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Why do the densities have the qualities that they have? 
			You have named the densities with respect to their qualities, the 
			next density being that of love and so on. Can you tell me why these 
			qualities exist in that form? Is it possible to answer that 
			question?RA: I am Ra. It is possible.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Will you please answer that?RA: I am Ra. The nature of the vibratory range peculiar to each 
			quantum of the octave is such that the characteristics of it may be 
			described with the same certainty with which you perceive a color 
			with your optical apparatus if it is functioning properly.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: So the original evolution then was planned by the Logos 
			but the first distortion was not extended to the product. At some 
			point this first distortion was extended and the first 
			service-to-self polarity emerged. Is this correct and if so, could 
			you tell me the history of this process of emergence?RA: I am Ra. As proem let me state that the Logoi always conceived 
			of themselves as offering free will to the sub-Logoi in their care. 
			The sub-Logoi had freedom to experience and experiment with 
			consciousness, the experiences of the body, and the illumination of 
			the spirit. That having been said, we shall speak to the point of 
			your query.
 The first Logos to instill what you now see as free will, in the 
			full sense, in its sub-Logoi came to this creation due to 
			contemplation in depth of the concepts or possibilities of 
			conceptualizations of what we have called the significators. The 
			Logos posited the possibility of the mind, the body, and the spirit 
			as being complex. In order for the significator to be what it is 
			not, it then must be granted the free will of the Creator. This set 
			in motion a quite lengthy, in your terms, series of Logos’s 
			improving or distilling this seed thought. The key was the 
			significator becoming a complex.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then our particular Logos, when it created Its own 
			particular creation, was at some point far down the evolutionary 
			spiral of the experiment with the significator becoming what it was 
			not and, therefore, I am assuming, was primarily concerned in 
			designing the archetypes in such a way that they would create the 
			acceleration of this polarization. Is this in any way correct?RA: I am Ra. We would only comment briefly. It is generally correct. 
			You may fruitfully view each Logos and its design as the Creator 
			experiencing Itself.
 The seed concept of the significator being a complex introduces two 
			things:
 firstly, the Creator against Creator in one sub-Logos in what you 
			may call dynamic tension; secondly, the concept of free will, once 
			having been made fuller by its extension into the sub-Logoi known as 
			mind/body/spirit complexes, creates and re-creates and continues to 
			create as a function of its very nature.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: You stated previously that The Choice is made in this 
			third-density and is the axis upon which the creation turns. Could 
			you expand on your reason for making that statement?RA: I am Ra. This is a statement of the nature of creation as we 
			speak to you.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I did not understand that. Could you say that in a 
			different way?RA: I am Ra. As you have noted, the creation of which your Logos is 
			a part is a protean entity which grows and learns upon a macrocosmic 
			scale. The Logos is not a part of time. All that is learned from 
			experience in an octave is, therefore, the harvest of that Logos and 
			is further the nature of that Logos.
 The original Logos’s experience was, viewed in space/time, small; 
			Its experience now, more. Therefore we say, as we now speak to you 
			at this space/time, the nature of creation is as we have described. 
			This does not deny the process by which this nature has been 
			achieved but merely ratifies the product.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: After third density, in our experience, social memory 
			complexes are polarized positively and negatively. Is the 
			interaction of social memory complexes of opposite polarity 
			equivalent, but on a magnified scale, to the interaction between 
			mind/body/spirit complexes of opposite polarity? Is this how 
			experience is gained as a function of polarity difference in fourth 
			and fifth densities?RA: I am Ra. No.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: This is a hard question to ask, but what is the value 
			experientially of the formation of positive and negative social 
			memory complexes, of the separation of the polarities at that point 
			rather than the allowing for the mixing of mind/body/spirit 
			complexes of opposite polarity in the higher densities?RA: I am Ra. The purpose of polarity is to develop the potential to 
			do work. This is the great characteristic of those, shall we say, 
			experiments which have evolved since the concept of The Choice was 
			appreciated. Work is done far more efficiently and with greater 
			purity, intensity, and variety by the voluntary searching of 
			mind/body/spirit complexes for the lessons of third and fourth 
			densities. The action of fifth density is viewed in space/time the 
			same with or without polarity. However, viewed in time/space, the 
			experiences of wisdom are greatly enlarged and deepened due, again, 
			to the voluntary nature of polarized mind/body/spirit action.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then you are saying that as a result of the polarization 
			in consciousness which has occurred later in the galactic evolution, 
			the experiences are much more intense along the two paths. Are these 
			experiences each independent of the other? Must there be action 
			across the potentiated difference between the positive and negative 
			polarity, or is it possible to have this experience simply because 
			of the single polarity? This is difficult to ask.RA: I am Ra. We would agree. We shall attempt to pluck the gist of 
			your query from the surrounding verbiage.
 The fourth and fifth densities are quite independent, the positive 
			polarity functioning with no need of negative and visa-versa. It is 
			to be noted that in attempting to sway third-density 
			mind/body/spirit complexes in choosing polarity there evolves a good 
			bit of interaction between the two polarities. In sixth density, the 
			density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in 
			each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love. 
			This is not difficult for the positive polarity which sends love and 
			light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for 
			service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative 
			polarity is abandoned.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: The choice of polarity being unique as a circumstance, 
			shall I say, for the archetypical basis for the evolution of 
			consciousness in our particular experience indicates to me that we 
			have arrived, through a long process of the Creator knowing Itself, 
			at a position of present or maximum efficiency for the design of a 
			process of experience. That design for maximum efficiency is in the 
			roots of consciousness and is the archetypical mind and is a product 
			of everything that has gone before. There are, unquestionably, 
			relatively pure archetypical concepts for the seven concepts for 
			mind, body, and spirit. I feel that the language that we have for 
			these is somewhat inadequate.However, we shall continue to attempt to investigate the foundation 
			for this and I am hoping that I have laid the foundation with some 
			degree of accuracy in attempting to set a background for the 
			development of the archetypes of our Logos. Have I left out anything 
			or made any errors, or could you make any comments on my attempt to 
			lay the foundation for the construction that our Logos used for the 
			archetypes?
 RA: I am Ra. Your queries are thoughtful.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Are they accurate, or have I made mistakes?RA: I am Ra. There are no mistakes.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Let me put it this way. Have I made missteps in my 
			analysis of what has led to the construction of the archetypes that 
			we experience?RA: I am Ra. We may share with you the observation that judgment is 
			no part of interaction between mind/body/spirit complexes. We have 
			attempted to answer each query as fully as your language and the 
			extent of your previous information allow. We may suggest that if, 
			in perusing this present material, you have further queries, 
			refining any concept, these queries may be asked and, again, we 
			shall attempt adequate rejoinders.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I understand your limitations in answering that. Thank 
			you.Could you tell me how, in the first density, wind and fire teach 
			earth and water?
 RA: I am Ra. You may see the air and fire of that which is chaos as 
			literally illuminating and forming the formless, for earth and water 
			were, in the timeless state, unformed. As the active principles of 
			fire and air blow and burn incandescently about that which nurtures 
			that which is to come, the water learns to become sea, lake, and 
			river offering the opportunity for viable life. The earth learns to 
			be shaped, thus offering the opportunity for viable life.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Are the seven archetypes for mind a function of or 
			related to the seven densities that are to be experienced in the 
			octave?RA: I am Ra. The relationship is tangential in that no congruency 
			may be seen. However, the progress through the archetypes has some 
			of the characteristics of the progress through the densities. These 
			relationships may be viewed without being, shall we say, pasted one 
			upon the other.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: How about the seven bodily energy centers? Are they 
			related to archetypes in some way?RA: I am Ra. The same may be said of these. It is informative to 
			view the relationships but stifling to insist upon the limitations 
			of congruency. Recall at all times, if you would use this term that 
			the archetypes are a portion of the resources of the mind complex.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Is there any relationship between the archetypes and the 
			planets of our solar system?RA: I am Ra. This is not a simple query. Properly, the archetypes 
			have some relationship to the planets. However, this relationship is 
			not one which can be expressed in your language. This, however, has 
			not halted those among your people who have become adepts from 
			attempting to name and describe these relationships. To most purely 
			understand, if we may use this misnomer, the archetypes it is well 
			to view the concepts which make up each archetype and reserve the 
			study of planets and other correspondences for meditation.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: It just seemed to me that since the planets were an 
			outgrowth of the Logos and since the archetypical mind was the 
			foundation of the experience that the planets of this Logos would be 
			somewhat related. We will certainly follow your suggestion.I have been trying to get a foothold into an undistorted perception, 
			you might say, of the archetypical mind. It seems to me that 
			everything that I have read having to do with archetypes has been, 
			to some degree or another, distorted by the writers and by the fact 
			that our language is not really capable of description.
 You have spoken of the Magician as a basic archetype and that this 
			seems to have been carried through from the previous octave. Would 
			this be in order-if there is an order-the first archetypical concept 
			for this Logos, the concept that we call the Magician?
 RA: I am Ra. We would first respond to your confusion as regards the 
			various writings upon the archetypical mind. You may well consider 
			the very informative difference between a thing in itself and its 
			relationships or functions. There is much study of archetype which 
			is actually the study of functions, relationships, and 
			correspondences. The study of planets, for instance, is an example 
			of archetype seen as function. However, the archetypes are, first 
			and most profoundly, things in themselves and the pondering of them 
			and their purest relationships with each other should be the most 
			useful foundation for the study of the archetypical mind.
 We now address your query as to the archetype which is the Matrix of 
			the Mind. As to its name, the name of Magician is understandable 
			when you consider that consciousness is the great foundation, 
			mystery, and revelation which makes this particular density 
			possible. The self-conscious entity is full of the magic of that 
			which is to come. It may be considered first, for the mind is the 
			first of the complexes to be developed by the student of spiritual 
			evolution.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Would the archetype then that has been called the High 
			Priestess, which represents the intuition, be properly the second of 
			the archetypes?RA: I am Ra. This is correct. You see here the recapitulation of the 
			beginning knowledge of this Logos; that is, matrix and potentiator. 
			The unconscious is indeed what may be poetically described as High 
			Priestess, for it is the Potentiator of the Mind and as potentiator 
			for the mind is that principle which potentiates all experience.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: Then for the third archetype would the Empress be 
			correct and be related to disciplined meditation?RA: I am Ra. I perceive a mind complex intention of a query, but was 
			aware only of sound vibratory statement. Please requestion.
 QUESTIONER. I was asking if the third archetype was the Empress and 
			was it correct to say that this archetype had to do with disciplined 
			meditation?
 RA: I am Ra. The third archetype may broadly be grasped as the 
			Catalyst of the Mind. Thus it takes in far more than disciplined 
			meditation. However, it is certainly through this faculty that 
			catalyst is most efficiently used. The Archetype, Three, is perhaps 
			confusedly called Empress although the intention of this number is 
			the understanding that it represents the unconscious or female 
			portion of the mind complex being first, shall we say, used or 
			ennobled by the male or conscious portion of the mind. Thus the 
			noble name.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: The fourth archetype is called the Emperor and seems to 
			have to do with experience of other-selves and the green-ray energy 
			center with respect to other-selves. Is this correct?RA: I am Ra. This is perceptive. The broad name for Archetype Four 
			may be the Experience of the Mind. In the tarot you find the name of 
			Emperor. Again this implies nobility and in this case we may see the 
			suggestion that it is only through the catalyst which has been 
			processed by the potentiated consciousness that experience may 
			ensue. Thusly is the conscious mind ennobled by the use of the vast 
			resources of the unconscious mind.
 This instrument’s dorsal side grows stiff, and the instrument tires. 
			We welcome one more query.
 
 
				QUESTIONER: I would like to ask the reason for this session having 
			been longer than most previous sessions and also if there is 
			anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable or 
			to improve the contact?RA: I am Ra. This instrument was given far more than the, shall we 
			say, usual amount of transferred energy. There is a limit to the 
			amount of energy of this type which may, with safety, be used when 
			the instrument is, itself, without physical reserves. This is 
			inevitable due to the various distortions such as we mentioned 
			previously in this working having to do with growing dorsal 
			discomfort.
 The alignments are fastidious. We appreciate your conscientiousness. 
			In order to enhance the comfort of the instrument it might be 
			suggested that careful manipulation of the dorsal area be 
			accomplished before a working.
 It is also suggested that, due to the attempt at psychic attack, 
			this instrument will require warmth along the right side of the 
			physical complex. There has been some infringement but it should not 
			be long-lasting. It is, however, well to swaddle this instrument 
			sufficiently to ward off any manifestation of this cold in physical 
			form.
 I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, in the love and in the light of 
			the One Infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, merrily rejoicing in 
			the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
