It seems to me that separating the space opera….or wanting to separate the space opera from the Law of One is more of a personal interpretation that doesn’t resonate with someone. But Don’s original perceptions and personal history were greatly influenced by the space opera facets of acquiring this knowledge. You can see it in his lines of questioning in the early sessions and in his earlier work. Even though Ra wanted to stay away from those subject, Don sometimes forced the issue.
It was Don’s early writings that drew me to the Law of One. I think taking that context out of the writing to make it more acceptable to a broader audience is about the same as the editing of other Holy Books to suit current the priesthood and what they think their audience needs to hear. Sure, its been done before…but should we walk that path again and again? To me…the Law of One should be taken as a whole body of work whose words are there for the individual to decide with what resonates and what doesn’t.
