What does Ra mean by "Will"?

[Ens Entium]

Good question. Will is bringing ones consciousness to bear on something. Since everything is part of one thought, that's a lot to chew on.

Each distortion (of the original Thougt) is an 'act of will' then?

Distortions are transcended when one moves from being 'embedded in/the effect of' those distortions to seeing them as an implementation of 'willing'. Willing in the direction of realisation of Unity- the original Thought. The will now has an active role in or in relation to those distortions. (?)

But what did you mean by "Will is bringing ones consciousness to bear on something" ?

I see creating as simply participating with higher principles, which occurs both on the individual and collective level.

On the collective level..any 'political' thought around this point? Anything currently out there that you can point to? As a tangent to this, it's interesting to note how 'institutionalising' higher values provides context/direction to lower valuing, e.g the green movement marshalling the will of those working with individuality/achievist contexts in a way that echoing of green valuing heightened, creating a pull to those levels.

I liked these:

Something as simple as building a chair is molding consciousness.

When one taps the individual desire to create something unique, you definitely feel the creative force flowing through you.

"All birds are indeed intended to suggest that just as the Matrix figure, the Magician, cannot act without reaching its winged spirit, so neither can the spirit fly lest it be released into conscious manifestation and fructified thereby." It's best to be active.
