teaching the self by the self

Ra then continues ... and the word 'inappropriate' comes up. This could ruffle some feathers as it implies some sort of 'judgement'? but I think that inappropriate here means 'not consonant with the Law of One', which is referenced in the previous q&a.

I would clarify even further to say that I believe Ra meant "not consonant with one's chosen path with the Law of One." What an STO entity and an STS entity view as appropriate are obviously different. And the understanding of "discernment" versus "judgement" helps here. Understanding that one's own discernment is not Universal.



I like this quote in relation to this topic:

18.5
...The proper role of the entity is in this density to experience all things desired, to then analyze, understand, and accept these experiences, distilling from them the love/light within them. Nothing shall be overcome. That which is not needed falls away.

The orientation develops due to analysis of desire. These desires become more and more distorted towards conscious application of love/light as the entity furnishes itself with distilled experience. We have found it to be inappropriate in the extreme to encourage the overcoming of any desires, except to suggest the imagination rather than the carrying out in the physical plane, as you call it, of those desires not consonant with the Law of One, thus preserving the primal distortion of free will.

It might be easy to misunderstand the result of decreased emotional response as the goal. If trying to balance, we should not suppress emotions for the sake of balance.
