Ra's understanding of Person.

[Shin'Ar]

The careless part comes from vastly underestimating one's own power over its experiences, in almost any front.
It also implies things that are untrue. We are not shells ready to be shed, we are the current represenatation of what our consciousness wants to experience RIGHT NOW.

'We' are not the physical bodies which we wear. We are not those shells. They are the vehicle of the fragmented field of consciousness.

But just because we know that they will be shed at some point, this does not mean that they bare not of great value while we have them. There is much to appreciate.

Like a fine car.

But NOT 'we'.

'We' experience creation in many forms like this and many very different from it. Compared to countless forms in which 'we' will experience creation, the human one will be a speck in time.

It is only when you attach your self to the flesh, this temporary form, that you feel empathy for the well being of your body, thinking it to be what you are.

You think that you are the shell, and so in your mind, the shell becomes a matter of both whether you continue to exist or not, as well as what you will continue as, after death.

I do not think like this. It is not my understanding.

The conscious awareness that you sense as 'you', is not your head, or your face, or any single part of your body. It exists within the body, but not attached to the physical as material. It exists within the very energy that flows through your entire system, making it a thing filled with life. This 'energy' is the conduit by which we are linked to The One from which it spawns. And it is found within the form of every creation.

It is in your brain. And it is in your foot. It is in your blood and it is in the depths of your atomic structure. And yet it is not bound to any of those parts, except as a utilizer. This is how a field of consciousness interacts with other fields. They can connect without being consumed by the other. Their fragmented individuality and independence from the body remains intact even though it is fully assimilated into the physical body in every essence of it.


This energy is what 'you' are. A fire.

And when this body falls victim to the Thermodynamic laws of nature, that 'fire' which you actually are, will move on to the places and further experiences it is called to move into.

We should never be ready to shed, if we are managing to establish some sort of effective and productive life in this shell. This is an opportunity, of which advantage should be taken.

But we also should never become attached to the body in such a way that we believe it to be what we think is our 'self'.

One should also follow the same advice with regard to their BMW.
