The Mind, to me, is an amalgamate of consciousness, so in a way, you are indeed correct, for we exist at the moment within a thought world. There is, of course, only One Mind. However, Mind is not the penultimate of Creation, it is simply the directive tool or organizational configuration of consciousness which allows for the experience of consciousness known as perception.
This is difficult to express, especially to make sense towards those who see the mind as the end all of creation. It is true that all we perceive is thought. It is true that thought, as a complex, or interrelationship ultimately forms one enourmous thought, within the One Mind, but the Mind is not all there is. The Mind is a matrix, it is the archetype of geometric patterns, it is the essence of information. It is, in its complete form, the cosmic Intelligence.
However, this Mind, is not very wise, and does not feel. It is also not very creative, despite its immense intelligence and well of information. This is where "spirit" comes in. I take spirit to mean the same as the feeling you get excited about something you really like, or the feeling of intense fear when you face your worst nightmare. It is the motion, where the mind provides the substance. This is often referred to as Love, this motion. It is the magnetic force where the mind would be the electrical force.
Of course, there is also the relationships between the electrical and magnetic forces, and this interplay I believe is the nature of "distortions" in terms of physical perception. Personally, I perceive physicality to be an aspect of focus. For example, when we die, we will still experience physicality in different form, as we will still possess a type of body, of course, the experience is determined by our conscious awareness which provides a function of our focus' intensity.
Also, even if we are to use common western scientific ideas such as the "big bang" and the "big crunch", it STILL suggests that inherent in every single point of creation is at least in potential the process of expanding and then contracting. Stars go through this process, galaxies go through this process, universes go through this process, it is one of the fundamental motions of this portion of Creation. Reciprocal Theory calls this Scalar Motion.
This pattern is what underlines the relationship potentials between all points of consciousness which could basically considered the strings of mind and spirit behind the body. So you have thoughts which consist of substance, emotions or love which are the motion of substance, and then you have the patterns by which the motion and substance interact, which would be considered wisdom, which deduces "purpose" in accordance with the One Thought of Unification.
So, in truth, I feel this is why Ra refers to the mind/body/spirit, and its complex, because they are all part of a single flow, a single state. Since Mind is something that must also be an idea, we can presume that there is something other than Mind, even if we cannot perceive or conceive of it. I feel that learning to get the mind in to a state whereby it can be bypassed may be a great secret to deep spiritual states, I shall let you know if I discover anything interesting.
Blessings, adonai.
I think one could consider the idea of a Light interaction. A source must lead to an extension, as the very word source implies something from which things have their origin, which must lead to a reflection. If we consider if there was at first no space, then the first flash of all Light, which is energy, and then eventually "cooled down" to begin to create lower levels of energies which formulated densities. Of course, there is a constant, with Light, comes Space, and also Time. Time is Motion, Space is Substance, and Light is the relationship, the constant. So we COULD just say "Light" is everything, but in truth it's more Light/Time/Space in accordance to the state of perception we are in.
