I'm new to the Law of One, and this is my very first post.
I just started reading the Ra material a few months ago, and at first glance, it seemed to mesh with my general understanding of various "new age" topics...tarot, aliens, pyramids and all. But it wasn't long before I knew it was much more than that!
Deeper on a level that is just outside my ability to put into words, but somehow resonates with a certain feeling of understanding.
So, as I read through the material, questions and challenges naturally arise, especially involving Service to Self/Service to Others.
For example, I believe the basic principle that I create my own reality through my thoughts, intentions, and emotional state.
I know I have free will to choose my own perception of my own experience.
No doubt, these ideas are centered on me and my personal choices throughout my life.
Self-centered?
Yep....those concepts must surely fall into the "service to self" category.
Yet, if I look deeper into my true intent for seeking personal well-being, I can balance (rationalize?) those concepts as a "service to others" by acknowledging the fact that I am free to accept and appreciate my interpersonal relationships as husband, father, brother, son, employee, humanitarian, etc.
If anyone reading this has had the same thoughts or conflicts with the general idea that "you create your own reality" is outside the path of "service to others", I'd love to read your response!
Thanks for reading!
Welcome,
To me, the connection is that others will react to you according to how you approach them carrying your reality. Working as a door to door salesman, I can see very clearly how the way I look at each home-owner affects the way they respond to me.
What this translates to is that you can best serve others when you are creating the reality that best facilitates you serving others. In other words, create a reality of abundance.
