[split] Declassified CIA Document on Gateway Experience [the Cult posts]

[YinYang]

I couldn't be fased by others' opinions, and I have never felt the need to defend the Ra material. It isn't in need of defence. It is either for you or it isn't, and if it isn't, no worries and find something that's more to your liking. Organised religion is crazy to me, but if that's someone's thing, then so it is. I mean no one seems to think that Jonah and the fish is crazy, or God asking Abraham to kill his son, or Moses opening the Red Sea with his staff. I mean if you wanna talk about crazy, the bible wins hands down! Not to mention the Book of Revelations...

It is also to be noted that an adept is one which has freed itself more and more from the constraints of the thoughts, opinions, and bonds of other-selves.

Not that I consider myself an adept by any stretch of the imagination, lol, but at least I have stopped worrying about others' opinions a long time ago. That's just a recipe for unhappiness. That skeptics discussion you mentioned earlier was an entertaining read, but I'm afraid as long as they demand proof, they will always end up with short end of the stick.

Ra: I am Ra. The vibratory distortion of sound, faith, is perhaps one of the stumbling blocks between those of what we may call the infinite path and those of the finite proving/understanding.

You are precisely correct in your understanding of the congruency of faith and intelligent infinity; however, one is a spiritual term, the other more acceptable perhaps to the conceptual framework distortions of those who seek with measure and pen.

The world will always match your view of it. If you see it as a hostile place not to be trusted, it will show you exactly that. It will show you what you believe. I had this discussion recently with a person who has a bit of a persecution complex, and I said "if you believe you are persecuted, then you will be persecuted. That's how powerful you are as a creator". Everyone's personal worlds are conforming to their view of it. Someone who believes they are constantly harassed by malevolent entities, will be. They made that reality come true. To me, that's the magic of the adept, he/she knows they're actively creating it, whereas the rest still needs to wake up to that fact. Most people think things just randomly 'happen to them', not realising they're actively creating it by their thoughts. That's the magic. Thoughts are things, powerful things! You create consciously or unconsciously, but you constantly create.

It happened with the Ra contact as well. When Don became worried and afraid, he lost his faith. It can happen to the best of us under those circumstances.

Ra: You are dancing thoughts.

I love this little clip by Terrence Mckenna:

Well I keep saying, de-emphasise anxiety. Reassure people. You need people who's saying "you know I'm really scared. I'm scared about my job, I'm scared about my rela... I'm scared-scared-scared." And say "don't worry. You don't know enough to worry. That's God's truth. Who do you think you are that you should worry, for crying out loud? I mean, it's a total waste of time. It presupposes such a knowledge of the situation, that it is in fact a form of hubris. You know? What you do is just pay your bills, and you know, pack heat if you need to and DON'T WORRY! That's all. Worry is praying to the devil. Worry is betting against yourself. You know, Wei Po Yang, a great Chinese Daoist, who wrote many-many commentaries on the I-Ching, he was asked at the end of his life what was his conclusion of a life of studying the I-Ching, and he said "worry is preposterous". That was it.

I hope you create for yourself a wonderful day today, Coordinate_Apotheosis, and tomorrow, and going forward! You will worry as long as you need to worry, and then one day you will realise how preposterous it is, and just laugh. And then you will be in a position to console others. This doesn't stem from ignorance about the dark side, I'm not ignorant of the dark side. Let them who are wicked, be wicked still. Let them who lie, keep lying still. Let them who deceive, keep deceiving still. Respect their chosen path, and leave them behind.
