I'd rather have it come from within as in like a satori moment. Otherwise egos tend to get in the way. Including my own.
I'll leave it at this. In my opinion, everything else in the Ra Material needs must be interpreted in the context of these two quotes. There are many ideas floating around, some which have even appeared to have gained consensus among LOO students at times, which rather fly in the face of what Ra said here, right in their opening session.
Everything else Ra says in the material relates directly back to these points, which are the centerpieces of their philosophy. What could be more central than the statement of their nature and purpose? Ra did not suddenly change their philosophy in the middle of Session 17 or Session 63. Ra did not make these statements here with the intention of contradicting themselves later on, or making exceptions for certain circumstances. Ra was not confused by themselves here.
Ra was perfectly and unequivocally clear about their philosophy right here in Session One. Frankly, there isn't much more to say about it. If somebody doesn't agree with what Ra said here, that's totally fine. We are free to choose a different perspective. But let's stop trying to "creatively interpret" their words in order to conform with our own philosophies.
