Great thread, Lavazza.
It makes sense to me that an entity need not be consciously aware of the Law of One in order to move from this to the next density, but I've never quite grasped why it is "absolutely necessary that an entity consciously realize it does not understand in order for it to be harvestable".
The only logical deduction I can make from this statement is that an entity who believes it ultimately knows what is happening within the moment is to some extent closed off to experience. Truth, I believe (or think I believe) is something which is alive and flowing and forever available only in the present. Our "understanding", on the other hand, is concerned with truth's shadows - the physical world, the past, and the future.
Intellectual formulation does not equate with experiential reality. Truth (aka: WHO WE ARE) is beyond the intellect. Therefore, intellectual certainty must to some extent be released in order to sink into the current or stream of truth, otherwise we are building and indulging fantasies without realizing that we are already neck-deep in the flow of truth.
To put it another way, our certainty in that which we think we understand may reinforce separation, creating a mentality which excludes more than it accepts. This would contradict the open heart that, in its fully activated and unblocked state, accepts unconditionally. This unconditionally accepting heart is that which is necessary for graduation.
Thus, as Ra says, it is absolutely necessary that an entity realize it doesn't understand in order for it to be harvestable.
Speculation, of course!
Much love, GLB
