Transient, Sustained and Eternal

[Diana]

That which Ra labels the unimportant and the transient is information that is simply consumed and not much else. How many times do you need to read the quotes about the Men In Black and underground bases until it outgrows its appeal? Moreover, where is the call to action? What sense of personal responsibility can be found there? Maybe this information could be useful in attempting to play the planetary game, but that’s not what Ra was about.

This is a good point about Ra, as others have also pointed out. Ra was a messenger of the LOO. It doesn't follow that because they concentrated on their specific message that other aspects of this reality are not important—especially in getting to the point where one can even absorb the idea of unity.

Everyone is different. For example, many members have said they came here by way of David Wilcock, UFO studies, etc., which may be labeled as "transient" material, but it got them to the Ra Material and the LOO. So to extrapolate, the average person who is immersed in the human drama will come across a variety of prompts to open up the consciousness—and much or all of this may be "transient."

So is the transient important? Yes, in that it is part of the path. But also, and I think this is equally important, why not have some fun along the way? We are in this world, and it is rich with endless experience. Why limit oneself to only one way of thinking, one way of experiencing. One's consciousness is what it is at any given moment. I personally am pretty detached from the human drama, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy a well-made movie or go to a MUFON meeting and have fun hearing someone speak about UFOs.

I like the idea of naturally, organically, moving along one's path, because that is—in my view—more accepting; whereas limiting oneself to just the "eternal" may involve resistance of the transient. One eventually, naturally, moves away from the transient—so allowing that organic process is perhaps the best way to progress.
