Now THIS is REALLY INTERESTING!!

When Don, Carla and Jim first began the Ra contact project, Don's job paid him more than his cost of frugal living. He wanted to make the Ra material available for donations only, and that worked until he made the transition to time/space.

After that, Jim and Carla needed to cover the costs of L/L Research, including continued publishing for donations only. They made one change in the Light Lines newsletter--they put next to each book title the amount of donation money that would cover its cost.

Jim loves being outdoors and is physically fit, so he took on lawn care projects to bring in some money. Carla is not physically fit, due to many factors, so she made known that she would do personal consultations. Both of those jobs are in service to others and support their needs for food clothing and shelter, while also supporting the functions of a continually growing L/L Research foundation. Rest assured that L/L Research is not a profit-making enterprise.

That said, my personal opinion is that doing spiritual work for money can be non-corrupting, but always with a huge risk. I also know of people who set out to exploit the need for spiritual leadership for a profit, and were successful for a time.
