This isn't a quote that can necessarily be shared with someone who isn't already at least a bit familiar with the material, but it is one of the most powerful parts of the material for me. It brings together so many aspects of the material, some of them which may need more context than others. We get the idea of the veil and its necessity, the concept of polarity and what its practical meaning is, the meaning of our current experience within this reality, the concepts of time/space and densities, the concepts of reincarnations and incarnational planning, and the idea of "the choice."
It wraps all of these things up and points them all towards the ultimate purpose and underlying message - love. The phrase "melting influence of love" has also been significant for me, as it is a great way to describe the effects of love. When something in us or others seems hardened, cold, and rigid, love can act as "melter." I can sometimes literally feel the warmth from love dissolving barriers in myself.

Quote:Questioner: Thank you. Can you expand on the concept which is this: that it is necessary for an entity to, during incarnation in the physical as we call it, become polarized or interact properly with other entities and why this isn’t possible in between incarnations when he is aware of what he wants to do, but why must he come into an incarnation and lose memory, conscious memory of what he wants to do and then act in a way that he hopes to act? Could you expand on that please?
Ra: I am Ra. Let us give the example of the man who sees all the poker hands. He then knows the game. It is but child’s play to gamble, for it is no risk. The other hands are known. The possibilities are known and the hand will be played correctly but with no interest.
In time/space and in the true-color green density, the hands of all are open to the eye. The thoughts, the feelings, the troubles, all these may be seen. There is no deception and no desire for deception. Thus much may be accomplished in harmony but the mind/body/spirit gains little polarity from this interaction.
Let us re-examine this metaphor and multiply it into the longest poker game you can imagine, a lifetime. The cards are love, dislike, limitation, unhappiness, pleasure, etc. They are dealt and re-dealt and re-dealt continuously. You may, during this incarnation begin — and we stress begin — to know your own cards. You may begin to find the love within you. You may begin to balance your pleasure, your limitations, etc. However, your only indication of other-selves’ cards is to look into the eyes.
You cannot remember your hand, their hands, perhaps even the rules of this game. This game can only be won by those who lose their cards in the melting influence of love; can only be won by those who lay their pleasures, their limitations, their all upon the table face up and say inwardly: “All, all of you players, each other-self, whatever your hand, I love you.” This is the game: to know, to accept, to forgive, to balance, and to open the self in love. This cannot be done without the forgetting, for it would carry no weight in the life of the mind/body/spirit beingness totality.
