The Male/Female Principles in the Archetypes

[third-density-being]

Hello Dear JustLikeYou,

Mind and Body Paths are fairly intuitive and understood, especially that Ra focus quite greatly on the Mind Path.
Spirit Path on the other hand is extremely elusive and practically indefinable for third-density-Being. Since so little was said about the Spirit Path in fourth Book, I’ve looked back to every statement Ra ever made regarding the “Spirit” (when Ra spoke of the “Spirit” separately, not as “mind/body/spirit complex”).

In following, “Roman numeral” indicates number to the Book, “Arabic numeral” indicates number of the Page. I apologize for a non-standard system of reference.

I, s. 90 - 91
Questioner: Then would it be possible for you to train us in healing
awareness?
(…)
Ra:
(…)
To speak to the third, if you will, imagine the function of the magnet. The
magnet has two poles. One reaches up. The other goes down. The function
of the spirit is to integrate the upreaching yearning of the mind/body energy
with the downpouring and streaming of infinite intelligence. This is a brief
explication of the third area.

In this response Ra gave “synopsis of the program of training required for Healer (same regard that started detailed Archetypal Mind discussion). Here Ra again underlines that firstly Mind and Body must be “balanced” in order to begin Work on the Spirit Path. RA described here relations between Mind/Body and the Spirit in very peculiar way – almost as if Mind/Body was “Male Aspect of the Spirit”, while “Infinite Intelligence” were “Female Aspect of the Spirit. Moreover, if “Spirit” is considered as a “shuttle”, such relations are possible in my opinion / according to my current interpretation.

Next quote is in very same topic – a continuation of “third area”:

I, s. 97
Ra: I am Ra. This is well with us.
We proceed now with the third part of the teach/learning concerning the
development of the energy powers of healing.

The third area is the spiritual complex which embodies the fields of force
and consciousness which are the least distorted of your mind/body/spirit
complex. The exploration and balancing of the spirit complex is indeed the
longest and most subtle part of your learn/teaching. We have considered the
mind as a tree. The mind controls the body. With the mind single-pointed,
balanced, and aware, the body comfortable in whatever biases and
distortions make it appropriately balanced for that instrument, the
instrument is then ready to proceed with the greater work.

That is the work of wind and fire. The spiritual body energy field is a
pathway, or channel. When body and mind are receptive and open, then
the spirit can become a functioning shuttle or communicator from the
entity’s individual energy/will upwards, and from the streamings of the
creative fire and wind downwards.
(…)

Here again close connection of Mind/Body and Spirit was expressed.
“Individual energy/will” I understand as “Individual Body/Mind”.
“Functioning shuttle or communicator” – The Spirit
“Upwards” and “downwards” – those are “the Directions of the Spirit functioning” – and those I try to express in “relations” that combines all three: Mind/Body/Spirit.

When One would assigned dual-Aspect to the Spirit Path, each Arcanum on this Path is capable of expressing both Paths of Mind and Body – or at least to indicate what are the “relations/influences” of each Spirit Arcanum in/within the Arcanum of Mind/Body.

For example:
Catalyst:
Mind – Female
Body – Male
Spirit – Female/Male

Therefore:
Catalyst of the Spirit – Mind/Body

- those are relations One can drawn from such understanding. Interpretation of it, is a different matter and is Unique for Each Being.

---

Similarly with relations I’ve proposed in my previous mail – Arcanum “Catalyst of the Spirit” would be expressed as”

Female/Male

Female/Positive – passive outward action (Female Aspect of the Spirit with assigned Male Aspect of the Body Catalyst)
Female/Negative – passive inward action (Female Aspect of the Spirit with assigned Female Aspect of the Mind Catalyst)

Male/Positive – active outward action (Male Aspect of the Spirit with assigned Male Aspect of the Body Catalyst)
Male/Negative – active inward action (Male Aspect of the Spirit with assigned Female Aspect of the Mind Catalyst)

---

Those are only “dry relations”, meaningless in “them-selves” – they are to be used to interpret each Arcanum by Each Being Individually. Only than they possess any value – if they are able to facilitate that Process.

In terms of “label-ism”, RA offered Us one more “substitute” for understanding labels “Positive(male)/Negative(female)”:

II, s. 29
Ra:
(…)
In green ray there are two possibilities. Firstly, if both vibrate in green ray
there will be a mutually strengthening energy transfer, the negative or
female, as you call it, drawing the energy from the roots of the being-ness
through the energy centers, thus being physically revitalized; the positive, or
male polarity, as it is deemed in your illusion, finding in its energy transfer
an inspiration which satisfies and feeds the spirit portion of the
body/mind/spirit complex, thus both being polarized and releasing the
excess of that which each has in abundance by nature of intelligent energy,
that is, negative/intuitive, positive/physical energies as you may call them;
this energy transfer being blocked only if one or both entities have fear of
possession or of being possessed, of desiring possession or desiring being
possessed.

Male/Positive/Physical
Female/Negative/Intuitive

If One would decide to examine Archetypal Mind through proposes “relations” (with proposed terminology) this “additional” understanding of those relations might be helpful.

I, s. 153
Ra:
The indigo-ray
balancing is quite central to the type of work which revolves about the spirit
complex, which has its influx then into the transformation or transmutation
of third density to fourth density, it being the energy center receiving the
least distorted outpourings of love/light from intelligent energy and also the
potential for the key to the gateway of intelligent infinity.

The “transformation or transmutation of third density to fourth density” – may in this case phrase “third density” be understood as Mind/Body with It’s Environment, that through Spirit Path is “transforming/transmuting”?

I, s. 172
Ra: I am Ra. Those who heal may be of any density which has the
consciousness of the spirit. This includes third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and
seventh. The third density can be one in which healing takes place just as
the others. However, there is more illusory material to understand, to
balance, to accept, and to move forward from.

The gate to intelligent infinity can only be opened when an understanding
of the in-streamings of intelligent energy are opened unto the healer. These
are the so-called Natural Laws of your local space/time continuum and its
web of electromagnetic sources or nexi of in-streaming energy.

Know then, first, the mind and the body. Then as the spirit is integrated
and synthesized, these are harmonized into a mind/body/spirit complex
which can move among the dimensions and can open the gateway to
intelligent infinity, thus healing self by light and sharing that light with
others.

True healing is simply the radiance of the self causing an environment in
which a catalyst may occur which initiates the recognition of self, by self, of
the self -healing properties of the self.

Bolded part – I think that in this part Ra spoke about Archetypal Mind – especially the second sentence.

Bolded and underlined part – I think that in those two sentences Ra described an Entire Great Way (all three Paths) and “It’s End Result” (from the point of view of the Healer).

I, s. 184 – 185
Questioner: When this transition from second to third density takes place,
how does the entity, whether it be animal, [vegetable] tree, or mineral,
become enspirited?

Ra: I am Ra. Entities do not become enspirited. They become aware of the
intelligent energy within each portion, cell, or atom, as you may call it, of
its Beingness

This awareness is that which is awareness of that already given. From the
infinite come all densities. The self-awareness comes from within given the
catalyst of certain experiences understanding, as we may call this particular
energy, the upward spiraling of the cell or atom or consciousness.
You may then see that there is an inevitable pull toward the, what you may
call, eventual realization of self.

Here, I pictured Matrix of the Spirit and Potentiator of the Spirit interplay, as similarity to the “conditions of transition” of Mind/Body Complex into Mind/Body/Spirit Complex” up to:

I, s. 141
Ra:
(…)third density, the first density of consciousness of spirit(…)

---

II, s. 24 – 25
Questioner: Thank you. Would you define mind, body, and spirit
separately?

Ra: I am Ra. These terms are all simplistic descriptive terms which equal a
complex of energy focuses; the body, as you call it, being the material of the
density which you experience at a given space/time or time/space; this
complex of materials being available for distortions of what you would call
physical manifestation.

The mind is a complex which reflects the in-pourings of the spirit and the
up-pourings of the body complex. It contains what you know as feelings,
emotions, and intellectual thoughts in its more conscious complexities.
Moving further down the tree of mind we see the intuition which is of the
nature of the mind more in contact or in tune with the total being-ness
complex. Moving down to the roots of mind we find the progression of
consciousness which gradually turns from the personal to the racial
memory, to the cosmic influxes, and thus becomes a direct contactor of that
shuttle which we call the spirit complex.

This spirit complex is the channel whereby the in-pourings from all of the
various universal, planetary, and personal inpourings may be funneled into
the roots of consciousness and whereby consciousness may be funneled to
the gateway of intelligent infinity through the balanced intelligent energy of
body and mind.

You will see by this series of definitive statements that mind, body, and
spirit are inextricably intertwined and cannot continue, one without the
other. Thus we refer to the mind/body/spirit complex rather than
attempting to deal with them separately, for the work, shall we say, that you
do during your experiences is done through the interaction of these three
components, not through any one.

This is the last quote I’m offering here that is consistent (for me, of course) with my “line of Thinking”.

Spirit is a “channel” for Mind/Body, therefore I think “It” can be expressed with Attributes/Aspects of both – Male(positive)/Femal(negative).

---

An addition to above:

Both Mind and Body are strongly divided between that what is conscious and unconscious. This is also expressed in positive/negative polarity.
I suspect that there’s no such division in case of the Spirit (It-Self) and that it is “Spirit-Counterparts” (Mind/Body) that are actively participating in/on/at the “Spirit Path”.

In any case, I’m unable to “grasp” “what” Spirit Is in relation to my own Being-ness/Experience and I think this is my fundamental problem/challenge.

---

As always, I’m very Open for discussion, especially that my Confusion is Significant.


All I have Best in me for You
