"The Orange Monkey" -- PJ Harvey, The Hope Six Demolition Project (2016)

A restlessness took hold my brain
And questions I could not hold back
An orange monkey on a chain
On a bleak uneven track

Told me that to understand
You must travel back in time
I took a plane to a foreign land
And said, "I'll write down what I find"

Beneath a mountain's jagged shelves
Cloaked with snow and shadows sheer
Plates tipped up upon themselves
The pain of fifty million years

And mules and goats were running wild
A happy chaos carried on
And old men and the young boys smiled
And worked until the day was gone

The packs of sandy-coloured dogs
Walked streets that looked like building sites
But piles of rocks and dust and smog
Could not block out a different light

When I returned I ran to meet
The monkey, but his face had changed
He stood before me on two feet
The track was now a motorway


In the Hindu pantheon, Hanuman allegorizes the service-to-other excellences of inner self-control 
and intrepid faithfulness in support of a noble cause. The quixotic poignancy of his being is that 
though sapient, he is yet an animal, in the form of an Ape-Man Vanara -- who is, nonetheless, 
sincerely aspiring to humanness via surrendering his innate genetically-conditioned personal urges 
to unreserved and even self-sacrificing service to the true cultural needs of his betters, the STO 
human community (embodied in the persons of Hanuman's master and mistress, the royal Rhagupati 
couple, Prince Ram and Princess Sita, themselves the relatively-diminished, merely-human avatars of 
Deity).
Saffron-orange has the most sacred color-connotations for the Hindus, representing the fire of purity 
that burns away the impurities of human incarnation, often through abstinence from conditioned be-
havior. It is the color of holy men and ascetics who have renounced the world; wearing the color sym-
bolizes the quest for clarifying light. It is also the battle-color of the Rajputs, the warrior caste.

^ Child Hanuman reaches for the Sun, thinking it a mango.
"A great lesson in this is that if we aim for the Sun, we may not get it, but we won't come
up with something petty. Also, we might get shot down in attempting the impossible but the 
Universe will work to ensure that things are set right."


"In the Dark Places" -- PJ Harvey, Let England Shake (2011)

We got up early, washed our faces
Walked the fields and put up crosses
Passed through the damned mountains
Went hellwards
And some of us returned
And some of us did not



In the fields and in the forests
Under the Moon and under the Sun
Another summer has passed before us
And not one man has
And not one woman has
Revealed the secrets of this world

So our young men hit with guns in the dirt
And in the dark places
Our young men hit with guns in the dirt
And in the dark places
Our young men hit with guns in the forests
And in the dark places

And not one man has
And not one woman has
Revealed the secrets of this world


^ Allegorical of typical force-asymmetrical encounter between sufficiently-secret Truth and
innocently-unsuspecting, unworldly-wise Seeker After Truth

84.20 Questioner: Then, with respect to the green, blue, and indigo transfers of energy: How 
would the mechanism for these transfers differ in making them possible or setting the ground-
work for them than the orange ray? I know this is very difficult to ask and I may not be making 
any sense, but what I am trying to do is get to an understanding of the foundation for transfers 
in each of the rays and the preparations for the transfers, you might say, or the fundamental 
requirements and biases and potentials for these transfers. Could you expand on that for me 
please? I am sorry for the poor question.

Ra: I am Ra. We would take a moment to state in reply to a previous comment that we shall 
answer each query whether or not it has been previously covered for not to do so would be to 
baffle the flow of quite another transfer of energy.

To respond to your query we firstly wish to agree with your supposition that the subject you now 
query upon is a large one, for in it lies an entire system of opening the gateway to intelligent
infinity. You may see that some information is necessarily shrouded in mystery by our desire to
preserve the free will of the adept. The great key to blue, indigo, and finally, that great capital of
the column of sexual energy transfer, violet energy transfers, is the metaphysical bond or distortion
which has the name among your peoples of unconditional love. In the blue-ray energy transfer the
quality of this love is refined in the fire of honest communication and clarity; this, shall we say,
normally, meaning in general, takes a substantial portion of your space/time to accomplish although
there are instances of matings so well refined in previous incarnations and so well remembered
that the blue ray may be penetrated at once. This energy transfer is of great benefit to the seeker
in that all communication from this seeker is, thereby, refined and the eyes of honesty and clarity
look upon a new world. Such is the nature of blue-ray energy and such is one mechanism of potenti-
ating and crystallizing it.

As we approach indigo-ray transfer we find ourselves in a shadowland where we cannot give you 
information straight out or plain, for this is seen by us to be an infringement. We cannot speak at all 
of violet-ray transfer as we do not, again, desire to break the Law of Confusion.

We may say that these jewels, though dearly bought, are beyond price for the seeker and might 
suggest that just as each awareness is arrived at through a process of analysis, synthesis, and 
inspiration, so should the seeker approach its mate and evaluate each experience, seeking the jewel.



94.12 Questioner: It seems to me that the Experience of the Mind would act in such a way as to 
change the nature of the veil so that catalyst would be filtered so as to be more acceptable in the 
bias that is increasingly chosen by the entity. For instance, if the entity had chosen the right-hand 
path the Experience of the Mind would change the permeability of the veil to accept more and more 
positive catalyst, and also the other would be true for accepting more negative if the left-hand path 
were the one that was repeatedly chosen. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is not only correct but there is a further ramification. As the entity increases in 
experience it shall, more and more, choose positive interpretations of catalyst if it is upon the service-
to-others path and negative interpretations of catalyst if its experience has been along the service-to-
self path.
