Thanking of the Body Complex

Location: Chatroom 2 - the Lounge

Theme: where would we be without the body complex? Quite unanchored and unmoored, one would think.
Despite it's many difficulties, and the chores we have to do to keep it 'functional', the body complex is an integral part of each life, each manifested experience.
A face, a voice, the way we walk and dress ... such unique indicators of who we are, on some deeper level. Is there mistaking a Tom Baker (from Doctor Who)? Or a George Clooney? Or your Mother? The body complex encodes so many of our unique traits.
So for this Meditation, we can show some appreciation and gratitude for this vital instrument, as perishable and fault-prone as it can be.
There are ways to use it with love. And there are ways to use it with wisdom. I guess experimentation (and feedback) is the only thing we have to go on here.
Namaste.

Quote:61.6 Questioner: I want to ask a few questions Jim had here about the healing exercises. The first is, in the healing exercise concerning the body, what do you mean by the disciplines of the body having to do with the balance between love and wisdom in the use of the body in its natural functions?
Ra: I am Ra. We shall speak more briefly than usual due to this instrument’s use of the transferred energy. We, therefore, request further queries if our reply is not sufficient.
The body complex has natural functions. Many of these have to do with the unmanifested self and are normally not subject to the need for balancing. There are natural functions which have to do with other-self. Among these are touching, loving, the sexual life, and those times when the company of another is craved to combat the type of loneliness which is the natural function of the body as opposed to those types of loneliness which are of the mind/emotion complex or of the spirit.
When these natural functions may be observed in the daily life they may be examined in order that the love of self and love of other-self versus the wisdom regarding the use of natural functions may be observed. There are many fantasies and stray thoughts which may be examined in most of your peoples in this balancing process.
Equally to be balanced is the withdrawal from the need for these natural functions with regard to other-self. On the one hand there is an excess of love. It must be determined whether this is love of self or other-self or both. On the other hand there is an over-balance towards wisdom.
It is well to know the body complex so that it is an ally, balanced and ready to be clearly used as a tool, for each bodily function may be used in higher and higher, if you will, complexes of energy with other-self. No matter what the behavior, the important balancing is the understanding of each interaction on this level with other-selves so that whether the balance may be love/wisdom or wisdom/love, the other-self is seen by the self in a balanced configuration and the self is thus freed for further work.
