I'm glad to hear it, thank you and welcome to the forum! I debated for quite awhile whether or not to join myself.
Yes, we lure our own selves in many directions by identifying with the words themselves, and what we want them to mean, rather than using discernment as to what is actually being said. Regardless, there will always be growth. The main message of outlining everything that I have, was to emphasize how Ra continually asked us to be aware of the influences in our mind, and to use discernment.
For those that have read the thread before, I'd ask that you read it again because I have been continually editing it. The thread definitely reads differently. After a day or two of having originally created it, and reflecting on the channeling process itself, I realized that it can't be said that an Orion entity came through, but its influence was certainly present in Don's mind and is possibly what Ra was referring to.
However, as I say on the first page..I feel that at the very least, this idea that I have formed is an exercise more than anything. It's possible that my interpretation is wrong, but in considering it you reflect on all of the philosophical teachings that Ra imparts. While I have gone into great detail, it is not my intention to get caught up in the details themselves. I simply feel that certain statements have been carried away from their intended meaning entirely too much, and so much confusion has been created that a more thorough step by step explanation is needed. I am simply trying to bring understanding back full circle. Afterwards, it may help you to recognize bias or influence that you weren't able to notice before.
