Real World Action

[Plenum]

What's your take on this quote Plenum? What does power mean exactly, and how does one use it? I see the bit about "constructive or destructive activity," would that mean that the power Ra is referring to is simply the ability to apply ones energy towards such activities (in power's physical manifestation at least)? 

to answer that more fully, I'll probably have to reference some other material.

in other places, Ra said that one of the reasons why this group could contact them was that the three as a collective represented certain qualities of the Higher Self to an archetypal level.  That is, Love (Carla), Wisdom (Don), and Power (Jim).  The Higher Self is a 6th density manifestation, as is Ra.  And so being able to harmonize those qualities to such a high degree meant that the blending of vibrations would be much easier.

in Jim's case, I believe that this is an ability to work with intelligent energy or the indigo ray with ease.  Intelligent energy does have to do with physical manifestation, as you mentioned.  This physical manifestation is not producing objects out of thin air; it's about being the physical alchemist, and getting in there with your hands, and changing stuff.  I believe that Jim lived on the land by himself for some time, and was pretty much self sufficient.  He was also a handy worker with wood.

I think that type of 'power' is about directly engaging with the physical, and being able to shape it intuitively, along certain harmonized lines.  It's a form of 'intelligence' that knows how physical/metaphysical things work. Not in the theory way that a physicist does with equations, but in a way that is deeper and more connected to the currents of intelligent energy.  They just 'know' how to do it.  But it does mean getting your hands dirty, and getting involved.  But the shaping would most likely be effortless to them.

Come to think of it, a lot of Jim's blog posts were about the work he was doing around the house. I suppose that sort of thing is a real world application of one's abilities and providing that sort of service for people would lead to positive polarization.

Is it as simple as that?

I think we all have special skills and talents; and it's almost incumbent on us to find out what those are so that we can offer something to the Creation that is our unique voice.  There are writers which inspire millions with their stories (sci-fi for eg), there are musicians which make the songs which people find comfort in.

We all have abilities according to Ra, and those can be used for service to do/show other-selves something they can't do themselves with a lack of that ability.  So that's positive service right there.  Supplying someone else's lack with that ability or skill you happen to have uniquely.
