I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Two and the concept of the service-to-self path:
The Service-to-Self Path
The description of polarity as service to self and service to others, from the beginning of our creation, dwelt within the architecture of the primal Logos. Before the veiling process the impact of actions taken by mind/body/spirits upon their consciousnesses was not palpable to a significant enough degree to allow the expression of this polarity to be significantly useful. Over the period of what you would call time this expression of polarity did, indeed, work to alter the biases of mind/body/spirits so that they might eventually be harvested. The veiling process made the polarity far more effective.[1]
In our studies with Ra, we discovered that the basis for the service-to-others and the service-to-self paths was inlaid by our Primal Logos at the very beginning of the creation. It is an interesting thought that both polarities are inherent in the framework of the universe because it suggests that there was a grand overview of the upcoming experience of the Creator by Its infinite portions of Itself. It seems that this plan was set in place in case it was needed by the evolving third-density entities that existed before the veil of forgetting was implemented. It would seem that the means of inventing a way to manifest it would be the part of the puzzle that was left to the various Logoi by the Primal Logos.
Ever since that moment long ago when the veil descended upon the third-density experience, we in third density have lived in a world of apparent separation. Ra mentioned that animals, who are second-density beings, do not have a veil. They see themselves as part of their group, and they serve that “group-self “in a way that cannot be considered partaking of polarity, either negative or positive. Likewise, entities who are new to third density still possess some of this “innocence,” or natural tribal thinking. Ra explained that the veil eventually produces a sense of individual self, and therefore, a sense of other-self—or “not me”—which leads to choices that can be considered polarized.
The second-density concept of serving self includes the serving of those associated with tribe or pack. This is not seen in second density as separation of self and other-self. All is seen as self since in some forms of second-density entities, if the tribe or pack becomes weakened, so does the entity within the tribe or pack.
The new or initial third-density entity has this innocent, shall we say, bias or distortion towards viewing those in the family, the society, as you would call, perhaps, country, as self. Thus though a distortion not helpful for progress in third density, it is without polarity.
The break becomes apparent when the entity perceives other-selves as other-selves and consciously determines to manipulate other-selves for the benefit of the self. This is the beginning of the road [to service-to-self polarization] [AB1] of which you speak.[2]
So, a newly minted[AB2] third-density being still thinks a bit like an animal, but only due to not yet fully realizing its individuality, since the animal will see other members of its tribe or pack as itself. This instinctual point of view will dictate behaviors that reflect a kind of service to “self” that is not of a polarizing nature.
Questioner: Then, through free will, sometime in the third-density experience, the path splits and an entity consciously— probably does not consciously choose. Does an entity consciously choose this path at the initial splitting point?
Ra: I am Ra. We speak in generalities which is dangerous for always inaccurate. However, we realize you look for the overview; so we will eliminate anomalies and speak of majorities.
The majority of third-density beings is far along the chosen path before realization of that path is conscious.[3]
Both the positively and the negatively oriented entities utilize pre-incarnative choices to provide the opportunity to proceed along their chosen paths in the manner which they hope will be the most effective within their incarnative experiences. The negative entity will make such pre-incarnative choices with the hope of enhancing its negative choice to the utmost while in incarnation as Ra revealed in this quote:
Questioner[AB3] : In the case of service-to-self polarization, what type of catalyst would entities following this path program when they reach the level of programming their own catalyst?
Ra: I am Ra. The negatively oriented entity will program for maximal separation from and control over all those things and conscious entities which it perceives as being other than the self.4]–
Ra: A negatively oriented individual mind/body/spirit complex will ordinarily program for wealth, ease of existence, and the utmost opportunity for power. Thus many negative entities burst with the physical-complex distortion you call health.
However, a negatively oriented entity may choose a painful condition in order to improve the distortion toward the so-called negative emotive mentations such as anger, hatred, and frustration. Such an entity may use an entire incarnative experience honing a blunt edge of hatred, or anger, so that it may polarize more towards the negative, or separated, pole.[5]
Many negative entities utlize good looks as a means by which to manipulate those around them as our culture seems to value attractive people and give them more attention. When wealth is added into the incarnational equation the potential for acquiring more power in the financial, social, and political arenas is greatly enhanced. These are some of the more effective tools for the negative entity to utilize in pursuing its service-to-self path.
Questioner: What must be the entity’s percentage, shall we say, if he is to be harvested for the negative?
Ra: I am Ra. The entity who wishes to pursue the path of service to self must attain a grade of five, that is five percent service to others, ninety-five percent service to self. It must approach totality. The negative path is quite difficult to attain harvestability upon and requires great dedication.[6]
In order to make the harvest into the fourth density, the negatively-oriented entity must be very effective in its separation from and control over others. The negative entity uses the lower three energy centers to bring others under its enslaving influence, utilizing the red-, orange-, and yellow-ray chakras to impose its will on others in various ways through personal and societal relationships. This can be done through interactions like sexual domination and control, vying for control and power in their individual relationships, or attempting to control or enslave social groups on the societal level.
All of these negative interactions with other-selves require that the negative entity omit love from all interactions. The negative adept refuses to open its heart because it is of the firm opinion that the green-ray energy of love and compassion for others is the height of foolishness. Closing the heart and becoming disciplined in their conquest of other-selves polarizes the negative entity towards harvestability. Once this harvest has been obtained, it finds itself in negative fourth density, practicing service only to the self.
Questioner: […] Could you give me some idea of what conditions are like on a fourth-density negative or self-service planet? Can you do this?
Ra: I am Ra. The graduation into fourth-density negative is achieved by those beings who have consciously contacted intelligent infinity through the use of red, orange, and yellow rays of energy. Therefore, the planetary conditions of fourth-density negative include the constant alignment and realignment of entities in efforts to form the dominant patterns of combined energy.
The early fourth density is one of the most intensive struggle. When the order of authority has been established and all have fought until convinced that each is in the proper placement for power structure, the social memory complex begins. Always the fourth-density effects of telepathy and the transparency of thought are attempted to be used for the sake of those at the apex of the power structure.
This, as you may see, is often quite damaging to the further polarization of fourth-density negative entities, for the further negative polarization can only come about through group effort. As the fourth-density entities manage to combine, they then polarize through such services to self as those offered by the crusaders of Orion.[7]
So, after the fourth-density negative graduates have made the Harvest they find themselves having to do a kind of battle of wills with a multitude of other negative graduates, all of whom wish to be the boss. Once everyone has had an opportunity to exercise their desire for power to determine just what the pecking order will be, then the group mind takes shape. This is called a social memory complex by Ra, wherein each entity has access to one another’s thoughts, memories, and experiences. Though the social memory complex also exists upon the positive path, it is used differently in negative fourth density where each entity utilizes whatever it learns about the others to help it vie for power. This results in a constant rearranging of the pecking order.
At some point the negative social memory complex will find itself in competition for power with other negative social memory complexes so that there then forms a pecking order of social memory complexes according to the relative power of each, and a group of such social memory complexes is born. In our portion of creation, the active negative group is referred to by Ra as the Orion group, simply because the leaders of this group hail from the area of the Orion constellation.
Questioner: What is the density of the Orion group?
Ra: I am Ra. Like the Confederation, the densities of the mass consciousnesses which comprise that group are varied. There are a very few third density, a larger number of fourth density, a similarly large number of fifth density, and very few sixth-density entities comprising this organization. Their numbers are perhaps one-tenth ours at any point in the space/time continuum as the problem of spiritual entropy causes them to experience constant disintegration of their social memory complexes. Their power is the same as ours. The Law of One blinks neither at the light or the darkness, but is available for service to others and service to self. However, service to others results in service to self, thus preserving and further harmonizing the distortions of those entities seeking intelligent infinity through these disciplines.
Those seeking intelligent infinity through the use of service to self create the same amount of power but, as we said, have constant difficulty because of the concept of separation which is implicit in the manifestations of the service to self which involve power over others. This weakens and eventually disintegrates the energy collected by such mind/body/spirit complexes who call the Orion group and the social memory complexes which comprise the Orion group.
It should be noted, carefully pondered, and accepted, that the Law of One is available to any social memory complex which has decided to strive together for any seeking of purpose, be it service to others or service to self. The laws, which are the primal distortions of the Law of One, then are placed into operation and the illusion of space/time is used as a medium for the development of the results of those choices freely made. Thus all entities learn, no matter what they seek. All learn the same, some rapidly, some slowly.[8]
The natural outgrowth of negative activities is [G4] the formation of an empire that may be ruled in a manner that gives more power to the apex of the social memory complexes which comprise the Orion group. This grouping of negative social memory complexes attempts to continue to gain more power by adding third-density planets to their ranks of the enslaved before those planets can achieve the level of a social memory complex of either the positive or the negative path.
However, it is interesting that the negative path suffers from what Ra called “spiritual entropy” that is due to the basic nature of separation. Because each entity wishes to gather power for itself—and not share it with the group—there is a continual loss of spiritual energies by the group that weakens the group. At some point this spiritual entropy will result in the negative path being abandoned as Ra mentions in the following passage.
Questioner: Then you are saying as a result of the polarization in consciousness that has occurred later in the galactic evolution, that the experiences are much more, shall I say, profound or deeper along the two paths. Are these experiences independent of the other path or must there be action across the potentiated difference between the positive and negative polarity, or is it possible to have this experience simply because of the single polarity? This is difficult to ask.
Ra: I am Ra. We would agree. We shall attempt to pluck the gist of your query from the surrounding verbiage.
The fourth and fifth densities are quite independent, the positive polarity functioning with no need of negative and vice-versa. It is to be noted that in attempting to sway third-density mind/body/spirit complexes in choosing polarity there evolves a good bit of interaction between the two polarities. In sixth density, the density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, which sends love and light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative polarity is abandoned.[9]
So now, having traveled the road of service-to-self long enough to see how it functions as the “path of that which is not”—that is, separation and control rather than unity and free will—what is the eventual outcome for these power-hungry souls? They have made the harvest into the fourth density; they have joined a negatively-oriented social memory complex; they have expanded further into a super group of negative social memory complexes.[AB5] Ra suggested that this path would move through the fourth and the fifth densities, but in the sixth density a problem develops that halts further progress.
In the sixth density the work is to balance the love and compassion of the fourth density with the wisdom of the fifth density. This blending of love and wisdom realizes and reflects the ultimate unity of all creation and all entities within the creation. When the negatively oriented entity [AB6] encounters this basic requirement necessary to continue progress within the sixth density, the spiritual entropy which has constantly plagued the negative path becomes the stopper to the negative progress.
The concept of unity requires that all see each entity within the creation as part of the One Self. This is not difficult for the positive path of service to others, for this path has always seen all beings as one and has always sent love and light to all beings—including those on the service-to-self path—for they are their other-selves. This necessity of seeing all as one is impossible for those on the service-to-self path. As a result, in order to progress any further in unity with the One Creator, the negative path must be abandoned[G7] [AB8] . Then the power accumulated by the negative entities is used to switch polarities and become positively oriented as Ra described in 78.25:
In sixth density, the density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, which sends love and light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative polarity is abandoned.
Thusly the two paths merge and all move forward. The One Creator has become immensely enriched by all of the positively and negatively oriented entities that have given It a wealth of ways to know Itself. This would not have been possible without the two paths polarizing so effectively through the mid-sixth density. After that point all progress is made without the need to use the concept of polarity.
Those of [AB9] Ra summarized this type of seeking process:
We seek now without polarity. Thus we do not invoke any power from without, for our search has become internalized as we become light/love and love/light. These are the balances we seek, the balances between compassion and wisdom which more and more allow our understanding of experience to be informed that we may come closer to the unity with the One Creator which we so joyfully seek.[10]
This morning I ran some errands with my first stop being Feeder’s Supply where I bought another bag of birdseed. My next stop was at First Watch where I had a brunch of blueberry pancakes. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at the vet’s where I picked up some meds for Bosco. The I came home and vacuumed the first floor of the house.
This afternoon I went outside and cleaned the filters for the fountain in the fish pond. Then I netted the Syamore tree seeds that were floating in the pond. My last job was to bring the water lilies up from the bottom of the pond and set them on their stone pedestals as they have begun their growth and will do better closer to the sun.
Last evening I was on a Gaia TV discussion about the process and value of channeled information. The Ra contact and the Law of One were discussed in some detail. You can access this discussion here: https://www.gaia.com/share/clfmy60xg000301ageqkx93ib?language[]=en&utm_source=share
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
March 24
The Ore Of Humankind
I am of the spirit of Christ and I greet you in the full consciousness of love.
The gem-like quality of the pilgrim’s soul may be seen seldom with your dark physical eyes, for the ore of humankind is rough and the exterior of most gem-like souls is pitted, darkened and scarred by erosion and age.
It is the function of the spirit of love to enhance one’s eyesight when gazing at gold and gems in the rough. There is a vision which comes only to those who refuse to trust their physical eyes.
May you ask this boon of the spirit of Christ, for each time that you see the Christ in another, you have become Christ to that other, and the gem that is your pilgrim’s soul is polished and faceted by deed and thought.
We leave you in the peace and comfort of love. Amen.
I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:
We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our love, light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
