Unity100, it sounds as if you are speaking of a personal experience. Is this the case?
So "dearly bought" to you means that the attainment of the jewels "require a lot of effort from the entity in regard to balance and activity of energy centers".
Your description of the event happening in the span of milliseconds sounds like a glimpse of something. My understanding, however - to deviate momentarily from my primary questions - is that this state can be sustained between two entities for a much longer time span than milliseconds or even whole seconds. More so, it can permanently transform the two entities rather than be confined to the limits of sexual energy exchange.
Ali, I resonate with your definition of "jewels" as spiritual truths, insights, and understandings. Though I would add to that list the word "experience" and the concepts of "revelation" and "transformation".
Ali, "dearly bought" means to you what it does to Unity100, means essentially hard work/energy expenditure/applied effort.
I have thoughts/questions to offer:
JEWELS
By jewel does Ra mean a moment of revelation regarding the truth of ones identity? An unveiling of the Creator-self to the incarnate-self and the experience of the unbroken unity between?
If so, why is the other self so important in catalyzing this inner discovery?
DEARLY BOUGHT
In addition to the hard work and effort described by you two, Unity100 and Ali, I associate this concept with sacrifice. It seems to me that the price or cost of these jewels is some sort of sacrifice, some big sort of sacrifice.
"Dearly bought" seems to connote the significance and difficulty of the sacrifice. It is not a giving up anything material, per se, and definitely not a giving up of something easy, but a giving up or sacrificing of some portion of ones identity, some cherished but distorted image of the self to which the entity is attached.
Dearly bought also seems to indicate pain in the process of sacrificing or letting go. And it echoes Ra's incredibly illuminating statement on the nature and result of sacrifice as it occurs in the resonating chamber, "wherein the entity dies to self and through this confrontation of apparent loss and realization of essential gain, is transmuted into a new and risen being."

BEYOND PRICE
This concept to me seems to indicate the value of that which is gained and revealed to the self as a result of the sacrifice.
In essence, I think they are saying that there is no price too high, no sacrifice too great for gaining these jewels.
I would really, really enjoy any thoughts on the above statements and would love to see these three concepts framed in the context of an intimate relationship. Especially regarding what precisely it is the entity sacrifices in the relationship in order to participate in this two-person gateway opening. What is so great that the jewel, once attained, is understood to be "dearly bought".
