Do you see this as something to do with evolution of consciousness, whereby the human race may be now moving into the beginning possibilities of (more open) 4th-density relationships? And in referencing history, how do you imagine the wounds promoted by societal and cultural institutions such as certain religions being healed, and in this I refer especially to women.
Beyond that, how do you imagine the perceptions of sexual experience becoming more open and accepting given our cultures today? Do you see this as an individual transformation, or a cultural one—both, or other way to get "there" from "here"?
Wow, these are some delightfully chewy questions, Diana! As I dive in here, please know that I am NOT an expert in the Law of One, and everything I say here is based on my loose memory of what I've read, and my personal interpretations. No authority here, that's for sure!
This may seem like a tangent, but bear with me a moment ... I have been binge watching stories of near death experiences. In one of these stories, the person was given information during the experience about the relationship between the animal body and the spirit that is using the body as a tool for learning in this physical dimension. There was something about this depiction that resonated with me in a way that I had not connected to before. I have always felt like we are bodies that have a soul, and this made me feel like I am a spirit that is using a body. Not only did I then feel the relative dominance of the spirit in a new way, but I also felt the separation or distinction of body and spirit whereas before they felt pretty melded. Perceiving this distinctness felt relevant to my experience of conventional sex versus this energetic ecstatic energy I'm talking about. Conventional action-based sex pertains to the physical animal, and the ecstatic energy is what the spirit experiences.
So yes, I do see this as something to do with the evolution of consciousness. I think of the physical three dimensional instinct toward pro-creation (red ray) as corresponding to the mechanical model of sex that predominates within our species (and all animal species, frankly). I want to talk about sexuality as if it is the same thing as spiritual evolution, because I'm suspecting that's the case more and more. When our evolution is stuck in the first three rays, so is our experience of sexuality limited to the conventional model. It's my understanding that the tipping point, spiritually/sexually, is at the heart level. Once the heart begins to open, I believe there is the potential for a thinning or lifting of the veil of forgetting who we really are (our spirits). Then, if we direct our mind focus to that heart opening, and its relationship to our sexual energy, we can open the floodgates of ecstatic energy.
Ra laid out quite specifically the blockages of the first three energy centers and how they thwart the transfer of sexual energy in a sexual encounter. But I am wondering, if questions had been posed further along those lines, whether it would have been revealed that there is a direct correlation between the removal of these blocks and the evolution of consciousness through the experience of sexual energy, whether with another or alone. Austin noted how there is nothing in the Ra material about the solo experience, and I'm wondering if that is just that it had not yet been discussed. Ra specifically spoke to sexual energy transfers between opposite sexes, and even controversially appeared to discount sexual exchanges that fall outside of that specific gender pairing. By the solo experience, I'm talking about the experience of one's own ecstatic energy, regardless of whether any physical action present.
I'd like to imagine that maybe some of the healing of the deep wounds related to sexuality, judgment, shame, violence, abuse, begin within the solo experience of the ecstatic energy. As I said above, an experience of this requires some measure of an open heart, and an open heart, even without a focus on ecstatic energy, would presumably result in the kind of compassion that itself would work a powerful healing. So my view would be that to reach the cultural shift, or the collective evolution, it begins on the individual level. I do not expect to see the kind of acceptance and heart-opening related to sexuality happen on a grand scale in my lifetime. Sadly.
