What's the Point of Jim McCarty?

[Jade]

Ra: I am Ra. This is indeed an appropriate technique. In this particular group there is an additional aid in that each entity manifests one of these qualities in a manner which approaches the archetype. Thusly visualization may be personalized and much love and support within the group generated.

Thanks for that contribution (your post), Jade.  I have a rather divergent guess about why Ra said Jim manifests power nearly to an archetypal extent. 

And, btw, you'd sure as hell never think this by just looking at him.  He does resemble Ghengis Khan even a little bit.

But Ra sees stuff we don't, and they prioritize what they see differently.  This is to say, I don't believe they were making a reference to his yellow ray capabilities, but to his metaphysical signature formed by many, many lifetimes of studying power, both for good and for ill, to the point where these are highly balanced and refined (and somewhat hidden) deep within his subtle being.  It never occurred to me to ask hm about it, but I imagine some of his meditation experiences have given him glimpses into this.

BTW, by the same token, I'll bet Ra also observed that Carla spent many lifetimes perfecting love and Donald perfecting wisdom.  (Of course, I'm using the word "perfecting" here loosely.)

I just think the quote I posted implies that meditating on power, then love, then wisdom - appropriate as confirmed by Ra, even though it was quite specific - maps again the chakra body which Ra says must be opened seriatim. Jim was also instructed by Ra to work his body daily towards physical exhaustion (another third-ray centric task) as a means of balancing this power/abundance of physical energy. Before he met Don and Carla he had his own land where he hand built a log cabin all on his own, another manifestation of third density physical power. Ra also comments on Jim's overabundance towards wisdom during the contact, this tending towards the negative use, as evidenced by the catalyst of the spider bite. They also mention that Jim has a problem with discipline in meditation (obviously he has gotten past this) that the other two did not suffer from.

So, while Jim in his ripe old age of being basically a reclusive monk for many years has achieved a lot of balance, I do not get the impression from Ra's comments during the contact that Jim was a balance of the higher aspects that Don and Carla embodied.

101.2 Questioner: Thank you. What has caused the swelling in Jim’s body, and what can be done to heal it?

Ra: I am Ra. For the answer to this query we must begin with the consideration of the serpent, signifying wisdom. This symbol has the value of the ease of viewing the two faces of the one who is wise. Positive wisdom adorns the brow indicating indigo-ray work. Negative wisdom, by which we intend to signify expressions which effectually separate the self from the other-self, may be symbolized by the poison of the fangs. To use that which a mind/body/spirit complex has gained of wisdom for the uses of separation is to invite the fatal bite of that wisdom’s darker side.

The entity has a mental/emotional tendency, which has been lessening in distortion for some of your space/time, towards negative wisdom. The entity being already aware of this causes us not to dwell upon this point but merely to specifically draw the boundaries of the metaphysical background for the energizing of a series of bites from one of your second-density species. In this case the bite was no more than that of one of the arachnids, sometimes called the wood spider. However, it is possible that were enough work done to test the origin of the pathology of the entity, it is within possibility/probability limits that the testing would show the bite of the cottonmouth rather than the bite of the common wood spider.

The energizing took its place within the lymphatic system of the entity’s yellow-ray, physical body. Therefore, the working continues. There is increasing strain upon the spleen, the supra-renal glands, the renal complex, and some possibility/probability of difficulty with the liver. Further, the lymphatic difficulties have begun to strain the entity’s bronchial system. This is some general information upon what is to be noted as a somewhat efficient working.

The removal of these distortions has several portions. Firstly, it is well to seek the good offices of the one known as Stuart so that harsh chemical means may be taken to reawaken the histaminic reflexes of the entity and to aid in the removal of edema.

Secondly, we suggest that which has already begun; that is, the request of the one known now to this group as Bob that this entity may focus its aid upon the metaphysical connections with the yellow-ray body.

Thirdly, the entity must take note of its physical vehicle’s need for potassium. The ingesting of the fruit of the banana palm is recommended.

Fourthly, the links between the swelling of contumely and the apparent present situation is helpful. As always the support of the harmonious group is an aid, as is meditation. It is to be noted that this entity requires some discipline in the meditation which the others of the group do not find necessary in the same manner. Therefore, the entity may continue with its forms of meditation knowing that each in the group supports it entirely although the instinct to share in the discipline is not always present. Each entity has its ways of viewing and learning from the illusion, and each processes catalyst using unique circuitry. Thus all need not be the same to be equal in will and faith.
