Your mind is a electromagnetic manifestation

[anagogy]

Hmm, well I do get what you are saying although I still don't see/understanding how you are making the division of "inner" and "outer". What are those exactly? Do you mean space/time and time/space in that red-ray is polarized to space/time forming a gradient with violet-ray polarized in time/space? Not sure what you mean by inner and outer so that kind of puts a block on the idea for me.

Yes, you've got it exactly.

Outer is polarized towards space/time (matter). Inner is polarized towards time/space (mind). And what creates the division between "inner" and "outer"? The self. The ego is the demarcation between who you are, and where you are. So as you proceed away from the outer planes and more toward the inner planes, you are turning away from matter, and more towards mind. Mind is inner projection, matter is outer projection. And spirit is the integrator.

When Ra calls time/space "inner planes" they mean that literally. They are within our consciousness.

If I am to translate this musically, I see the individual being as a musical chord, the "key" of the chord corresponds with the yellow-ray or whichever body is currently in activation, and then the other bodies, through potentiation, modify the "tone" or harmony of that key tone. In this way, I would equate physicality with "timbre", in that physicality is actually the perception of energy according to particular qualities.

Yes, the rays could be looked at as tones. Vibrations can be discriminated among in various ways and sound is certainly a valid way to look at it. Red ray is the lowest note, the most outer expression. The lack of consciousness at this level translates to a very pronounced outer expression, and a very muted inner expression. So lots of tangible form going on, but not much mind. As you go up the tones, the reverse becomes true -- mind becomes the more predominant characteristic.

The quality of physicality is that of tangibility. I do agree that red-ray is responsible for the tangibility of any density. However, I disagree that it is solely responsible for the appearances.

Yes, tangible is what puts the "physical" in physicality. The manifestation of form.

It's not solely responsible for the appearances. It is just where the appearances show up, or manifest, in the physical. As I said, in the lower astral, orange ray is the "tangible" expression. Less tangible than what we know as matter, but tangible to the lower astral inhabitants. Yellow ray is the tangible substance of the middle astral -- less tangible than the lower astral matter, but some semblance of form nonetheless.

Were I to use the analogy of a painted sculpture I would consider red-ray to be the raw material, orange-ray is the form applied to the raw material, yellow-ray is the paint, the colouring and "fleshing out" of the form through tones, green-ray would be the feeling or mood the colouring and form together form, blue-ray would be the many possible interpretations according to its design, what it communicates, indigo-ray would be the raw idea or concept itself inherent in the sculpture, and violet-ray is the fact that is itself, individuated, yet is also an extension of the sculptor.

The outer always reflects the inner. So all these forms start out as formless violet ray (the apex of inner mind), and then seep down into more and more tangible levels until, finally, they crystallize into red ray vibrational manifestation. It's very much like steam gradually coalescing into water, and lowering in vibration to the point where it "freezes" into a solid, red ray crystallization of form. The difference between the violet ray and red ray is that violet ray is undifferentiated, and general, and formless. Red ray is like "specific-ness". So as it lowers into vibration is coalesces into specific form from the infinity of probable thoughts. So it goes from pure thought, to thought-form, and then to form. And of course, all the gradations in between.

This is also why red ray is the basic strengthening ray for the densities. As the most "outer" manifestation, it is the "energizer" of form. Violet ray is passive potential, and red ray is active, aggressive, and kinetic.

So I agree that the red-ray forms the basis for physicality (raw material), but I believe the "appearances" we perceive are a feature of the yellow-ray painting over the orange-ray (individuation of the raw material), or in otherwords, it is through the yellow-ray that things have "characteristics". At least, that is how it appears to me.

The way I see it is that density level is a measure of complexity of consciousness. Or we could say, the level of closeness or resonance with the one undifferentiated consciousness. Rays, on the other hand, are more like "environments of expression".

Or, we could say, that rays are like notes to be played, and density level, is a measure of one's degree of mastery over such notes. That sounds good, I like that analogy best, I think.

So as an example, a 3rd density being incarnating in the red ray, or physical level, naturally coalesces a red ray form that can overlap with its true color yellow consciousness. This is why our physical 3rd density body has a brain with sufficient cognitive capacity to entertain self awareness, whereas a 2nd density physical body does not have that support to as a great a degree. The red ray expression that forms around the individual consciousness complex incarnating in that plane expresses that perspective within the limitations of its plane of existence.

So a third density being has a more "complex" red ray manifestation than a 2nd density red ray expression, because of the higher consciousness level. And a fourth density being would have a more complex red ray manifestation than we do. And the same is true for all the other vibrational levels.
