The quote below is from Ra Session 1 and it seems to sum up the whole deal for me. (Why read any further?)
When I query about how I distance myself from Divinity by creating distortions, my first hit has to do with an inherent bent towards interpreting things so that they'll fall in my favor. Because I have a certain knack for cleverness, this appeals to me. But I feel it's a way I strongly diverge from the reality of Oneness. If I didn't do this, down to the level of detail, I expect I'd be living in far deeper communion with Divine Grace.
Another way I amuse myself with distortions is to spin around and around in the same circles of animosity or self-righteousness. Sometimes it's hard for me to let go of patterns that re-enforce for me (note: for ME...I'm only fooling myself) a sense of importance or validation.
I'll stop here for now, but I'm wondering what others might have to say about how amusing themselves with distortions in their "Life on Planet Earth" maintains their separation from Oneness. Or maybe you have a different reaction to the quotation?
Funny, it brings forth a lot of grief from within me as I re-read it.
Thanks.

Thus spake Ra in Session 1:
In truth there is no right or wrong. There is no polarity for all will be, as you would say, reconciled at some point in your dance through the mind/body/spirit complex which you amuse yourself by distorting in various ways at this time. This distortion is not in any case necessary. It is chosen by each of you as an alternative to understanding the complete unity of thought which binds all things. You are not speaking of similar or somewhat like entities or things. You are every thing, every being, every emotion, every event, every situation. You are unity. You are infinity. You are love/light, light/love. You are. This is the Law of One.
