The Experience of the Spirit

[JustLikeYou]

I need to meditate on your interpretation of this Archetype, so I'm not going to comment on it here. Instead, I'm only going to point out one more important feature of the quotation of which you're making heavy use. Ra is here describing the method of harvesting prior to the veiling process. Although Ra does not say whether this method changed after the veiling process, the possibility remains. This suggests that it may have been that prior to the veiling, will and faith were nearly indistinguishable; whereas, after the veiling they become very distinct indeed. How, for example, could faith prior to the veiling involve trust where knowledge is absent? If we strip away from faith the ignorance provided to us by the veiling, all that is left is a kind of certainty or resoluteness. I'm not sure this is distinct from will in any way except that it is felt in the spirit complex rather than the mind complex. Having said this, keep in mind that my analysis is only hypothetical. You may very well be correct about this one. I'll get back to you in a few months when I start meditating on this Archetype seriously.
