Correspondence Between Densities and Traditional Planes of Existence

[anagogy]

Red Ray = Physical Plane/Prime Material/This is also the Etheric Plane (as is commonly referenced in occult literature -- not the version Ra was talking about). This is the most congealed manifestation of form, or tangibility.
Orange Ray = Lower Astral Plane (Selfish Vibrations/Vibrations Concerning Self/Lust/Personal Power/Lower Emotional Realm)
Yellow Ray = Middle Astral Plane (Awareness of difference between Self and Other/Societal Vibrations/Personhood in relationship to groups of entities/this is where you begin to see astral cities or conglomerations of souls living together/Lower mental plane.)
Green Ray = Higher Astral Plane (Awareness of others vibrations/empathy/understanding of what another is experiencing/unconditional love/astral heaven type worlds/awareness of harmony/higher emotional plane).
Blue Ray = Devachanic Plane/Mental Plane/vibrations of free communication and pure conceptual ideals/repository of the "pure vibrations" of a thing at a conceptual level/conceptual archetypes after which every further instance of a particular idea is a patternization of, i.e., Plato's ideas of "ideal forms")
Indigo Ray = Causal Plane (Awareness of self as an expression of Intelligent Energy/awareness of self as creator/what Ra called the "etheric body" or the place where light is given form. Think of it as an "eye" or "shutter" that focuses light, giving it form, which is why it is the primal Form Maker.
Violet Ray = Buddhic Plane or alternatively the "Atmic Plane" or the level of 'Christ Consciousness'. Realm of wholeness, and awareness of connection with everything. This is where the m/b/s totality resides. An awareness of the totality of experiential balance. This is the most intangible and "not constrained by form" level.

Ra said astral body is the body of green-ray, but only the pure beings can access the higher astral plane. Do you have any idea to solve that apparent contradiction?

I guess I'm not understanding the contradiction. Maybe you can clarify. Many negative beings dwell in the higher densities, in the *physical* planes of those densities. But after death, they reside in the lower astral planes of those densities. The higher planes aren't pleasant to them due to their vibrational configuration.

Every true color density has a spectrum of vibrations. The true color yellow spectrum of 3rd density contains all the planes I listed above. A 3rd density being can access all these planes, but only if they are evolved enough. This would depend on what energy centers have been penetrated. But understand even if they do penetrate those planes, while they are the same planes in every density, a 3rd density being is going to be translating those energies from a 3rd density perspective. So a higher density being would be able to take in even more of those energies than a 3rd density (they could use the energies of them more efficiently). And different densities interact on these different vibrational planes, just like different densities interact on the physical level. For example, I'm sitting here swatting my cat away from the computer as I type. We are different densities, but we are interacting and both incarnated on the same physical plane.

Ra: "Entities inhabit the various planes due to their vibrational nature. The astral plane varies from thought-forms in the lower extremities to enlightened beings who become dedicated to teach/learning in the higher astral planes.

In the devachanic planes, as you call them, are those whose vibrations are even more close to the primal distortions of love/light.

Beyond these planes there are others."

In the section where Ra said green ray was the astral body they said "some may call it the astral body". Some may not. But we know that the physical fourth density is a place arrived at by natural evolution (sexual reproduction) of physical entities in 3rd density. Ra has said that physical biology still holds sway. For example they said, "The frontal lobes of the brain will, shall we say, have much more use in fourth density." Ethereal beings don't need brain organs, only physical beings need brains to translate perceptions and act as a biological CPU for biological functions. They have also mentioned that while the chemical elements of the body are not the same as a third density body, it is still a chemical body. Just like there is a *massive* variety of *physical* elements that make up our physical world, and physical beings in that world, there is a *massive* variation in *physical* elements that make up 4th density. It is similar to the overlap between 3rd density physical and 2nd density physical. The only difference is 4th density physical is invisible to us, by choice (and our bodies have been genetically tampered with to reduce our ability to see higher vibrational matter. That was part of their choice for the spiritual purposes of our density). Making the choice is a spiritual exercise in reducing entropy. That is what the whole game is about: reducing spiritual entropy. That is just another way of describing polarization.

But back to ethereal planes, which are the *actual* subtle bodies in my opinion:

So dead dudes inhabit the middle, or even lower, astral planes if they have not activated the heart center. As Ra said, "Depending upon this time/space locus there will be certain helpers which assist in this healing process. The process involves seeing in full the experience, seeing it against the backdrop of the mind/body/spirit complex total experience, forgiving the self for all missteps as regards the missed guideposts during the incarnation and, finally, the careful assessment of the next necessities for learning. This is done entirely by the higher self until an entity has become conscious in space/time of the process and means of spiritual evolution at which time the entity will consciously take part in all decisions."  

Once the heart center is activated, the being then resides in the upper middle astral planes, or the higher astral planes of 3rd density (depending upon how activated their heart center is). It will be whatever time/space locus is most comfortable for it and its companions. And that is where they plan their incarnations from with the help of their spirit guides. But the natural dwelling place of a 3rd density being is the middle astral, unless they've started to polarize and raise their vibrational level, just as the natural dwelling place of animals, after death, is the lower astral. Negative beings will deliberately stay in the lower to middle astral planes after death. They can't stand the resounding harmony of the higher ethereal planes. It isn't that they cannot go to them, they are just too positive so they have no desire to. But the *physical* versions of these planes, which are the densities as we know them, are the negatives, or opposite versions, which they *can* tolerate because they can still be negative there.

Consider this section:

47.13 ▶ Questioner: What stimulus would create what we call an Earth-bound spirit or a lingering ghost?

Ra: I am Ra. The stimulus for this is the faculty of the will. If the will of yellow-ray mind/body/spirit is that which is stronger than the progressive impetus of the physical death towards realization of that which comes, that is, if the will is concentrated enough upon the previous experience, the entity’s shell of yellow ray, though no longer activated, cannot either be completely deactivated and, until the will is released, the mind/body/spirit complex is caught. This often occurs, as we see you are aware, in the case of sudden death as well as in the case of extreme concern for a thing or an other-self.

This "shell of yellow ray" is what I would call the true color yellow, red subdensity body (physical body in potentiation, that is the energetic substrate for the actual biological body we incarnate into). I consider it part of the physical world, just like the physical body we have now, though we can't see this level of matter/energy with our physical eyes. This is the physical body that automatically coalesces about our consciousness when it intersects the physical plane. Ra calls it something different than I do. The entity in this situation is so focused on their previous physical life that they are stuck on that level. If they move up a layer, they would find themselves in the lower astral (subdensity orange), and if they kept going the middle astral (subdensity yellow), and eventually the higher astral (subdensity green). But the planes all gradually fade into one another, just like the layers of the atmosphere. There are infinite planes. Changing densities, on the other hand, is a definite threshold challenge though, because it involves almost a completely alternate mode of consciousness.

This is why I really don't favor the occult terminology because it makes everything more difficult to understand. The red-sub-density of every true color represents the physical matter of that density (in my opinion). And every sub-ray thereafter is progressively less physical and more ethereal. But the planes are basically the same in every density. The only difference is the complexity, or density level, of the consciousness complex inhabiting them. Physical 3rd density is physical matter that supports 3rd density awareness. 2nd density matter is physical matter supporting 2nd density awareness. And 1st density matter is matter supporting 1st density awareness. But they are all in the same physical plane. The only difference is the complexity of the arrangement.
