Yes, I was referring to the most infinitely small facet of unity at the end of my statement there.
I do not disagree with you. I just do not take any problem with Ra's description of the STS path, either. Of course it is paradoxical, almost all of this is, that is the point. And of course STS offers a much more varied, in-depth, multi-faceted view of creation. And yes, "service to others" involves a high degree of "service to self", that's why those words are not meant to be taken in their singular definition, either. I mean, we can use different descriptions, like "one who spends 3rd density opening the heart chakra" and "one who spends 3rd density bypassing the heart chakra". One of these is deliberately denying a portion of its being, but in doing so offers a gift to the rest of Creation to make it more varied. Paradoxes all around!
