The Language Barrier in the Ra Material

[Parsons]

It's probably also worth noting, that even though we are reading the Ra Material online 30 years later, and it is a public document, the actual nature of its genesis was intensely personal.  That is, unlike a movie that is made to be seen by millions of people, this dialogue or conversation was between the Ra group and the Questioner.  The answers given were as universal as possible, and Don queried as to general principles, but at heart, this communications was a one-to-one personal chat.

So even though we are eavesdropping, and trying to learn directly from this document, it was essentially a teaching method between a 6d group and those 3 entities who drove the seeking process.

I agree. However, I would be remiss not to point out that they were fully aware many more people were going to read the resulting material.

Example:

Questioner: I’m guessing that there are enough people who would understand what you are saying, interested enough, for us to make a book of communications with it and I wondered if you would agree to this, us making a book, and if so, I was thinking that possibly a bit of historical background on yourself would be in order. [Inaudible] question.

Ra: I am Ra. The possibility of communication, as you would call it, from the One to the One through distortion acceptable for meaning is the reason we contacted this group. There are few who will grasp, without significant distortion, that which we communicate through this connection with this mind/body/spirit complex. However, if it be your desire to share our communications with others we have the distortion towards a perception that this would be most helpful in regularizing and crystallizing your own patterns of vibration upon the levels of experience which you call the life. If one is illuminated, are not all illuminated? Therefore, we are oriented towards speaking for you in whatever supply of speakingness you may desire. To teach/learn is the Law of One in one of its most elementary distortions.

Also, they were clearly aware early on that the material was being published into a book (see session 13).

Furthermore, if Ra were only concerned with the 3 person group, they would have just given the unpublished healing material without any thought to who would see the information.
