Greetings, friends!
I was thinking on this on my way in to work this morning. I find it exceptional that Ra almost never set down any understanding in absolute terms... "It is absolutely necessary", etc. I do not know- this may be the only time? At any rate, I think there is a lot of insight we can take from this statement, I think it is a rather profound point. Don was, I suppose, just trying to see if conscious knowledge of the Law of One was required in much the same way Christians feel they have to be aware of Jesus to be 'saved'. Ra by-passes this understanding altogether and goes much further, saying that one can NOT be harvested if they [think] that they understand the greater picture. Non-understanding is "absolutely necessary".
This is seen in Don's follow up question:
I believe what Ra was trying to say in the first response was that, to graduate one must not assume a point of view that arrogantly proclaims to know every thing about the universe, but instead assume an attitude of humbleness or awe in the face of creation? I agree with Don, it is a very important point. I would be interested to see what you think about this as well, so that we might fully understand it (or not, ha!)
16.37 Wrote:Questioner: I am assuming that it is not necessary for an individual to understand the Law of One to go from the third to the fourth density. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. It is absolutely necessary that an entity consciously realize it does not understand in order for it to be harvestable. Understanding is not of this density.
