It does change something. How long "does" it take to "do" what is "does"?
Can I give my personal note?
I was once very fixated on non-gradual, instant switch. I defended it with all the "proper" Ra quotes. One day, I shut down my defenses and opened my eyes, and with help from two members on a single thread, my mind was finally capable of seeing the gradual ideas.
Then I looked at myself for why I was walled off defensively. It was something like Austin's view, but from a completely different angle. I wanted to place the Ra work into an ultimatum. I wanted them to be right or wrong by the end of 2011. Either the big switch was going to occur "like Ra says" or else Ra was going to be exposed as a bunch of BS.
As you know, I see past that now. It may all be BS, but, like all things metaphysical, I really won't know until I die.
