I think that people get caught up on the idea of giving up individuality as it sounds like you are being asked to repress elements of the self. Repression is actually counterproductive to that goal. A better way to go about it is to indulge in one's desires and balance the experience within in order to see if they are in alignment with one's true being.
As the mind complex is distilled through the athanor of the body over many lifetimes it becomes purified and sheds distortion.
As for the central discussion of this thread, I think that there is a natural rhythm to creation and by doing the internal work and shedding distortion one becomes more in synch with that rhythm. If one is in synch with the rhythm of creation then they would naturally be in synch with others who are similarly synchronized. As fourth density approaches and social memory becomes accessible, it would be simple for the members of that complex to be in harmony with each other. Perhaps here in third density there is a need for conductors and preaching to choirs, if only to serve as mirrors and signposts pointing back to the self and the work to be done there.
Or something like that.
Quote:18.5 Questioner: Thank you. I have a question here from Jim that I will read verbatim: “Much of the mystic tradition of seeking on Earth holds that belief that the individual self must be erased or obliterated and the material world ignored for an entity to reach ‘nirvana,’ as it’s called, or enlightenment. What is the proper role of the individual self and its worldly activities in aiding an entity to grow more into the Law of One?”
Ra: I am Ra. The proper role of the entity is in this density to experience all things desired, to then analyze, understand, and accept these experiences, distilling from them the love/light within them. Nothing shall be overcome. That which is not needed falls away.
The orientation develops due to analysis of desire. These desires become more and more distorted towards conscious application of love/light as the entity furnishes itself with distilled experience. We have found it to be inappropriate in the extreme to encourage the overcoming of any desires, except to suggest the imagination rather than the carrying out in the physical plane, as you call it, of those desires not consonant with the Law of One; this preserving the primal distortion of free will.
The reason it is unwise to overcome is that overcoming is an unbalanced action creating difficulties in balancing in the time/space continuum. Overcoming thus creates the further environment for holding onto that which apparently has been overcome.
All things are acceptable in the proper time for each entity, and in experiencing, in understanding, in accepting, in then sharing with other-selves, the appropriate description shall be moving away from distortions of one kind to distortions of another which may be more consonant with the Law of One.
It is, shall we say, a shortcut to simply ignore or overcome any desire. It must instead be understood and accepted. This takes patience and experience which can be analyzed with care, with compassion for self and for other-self.
