Ra: I am Ra. That which you call the Sarcophagus in your system may be seen to be the material world, if you will. This material world is transformed by the spirit into that which is infinite and eternal. The infinity of the spirit is an even greater realization than the infinity of consciousness, for consciousness which has been disciplined by will and faith is that consciousness which may contact intelligent infinity directly. There are many things which fall away in the many, many steps of adepthood. We, of Ra, still walk these steps and praise the One Infinite Creator at each transformation.
I would change the emphasis to: "The infinity of the spirit is an even greater realization than the infinity of consciousness", and that the infinity of the spirit is the same as the infinity of consciousness.
My definition is that consciousness is infinity being aware of the finite manifestation of itself. And spirit to me means the perspective consciousness has. The realization of consciousness being connected to infinity is "lesser" than the reality of spirit as having infinite potential, since consciousness is already complete whereas there is an endless expansion to the spirit.
Infinity within infinity doesn't work in my opinion because infinity is "too big" to fit into itself, loosely speaking.
That's a cool way to think about it actually. One could say that consciousness has its focus on the finite creation, while the spirit has its focus on the infinity which is the source of the finite creation, in other words, the One Infinite Creator. And considering that the Creator is infinite, then wouldn't the finite creation also contain an infinite amount of finity? Science has not ruled out the idea that the universe could be infinite, we don't know what is outside the observable universe (i.e. light that has had the opportunity to reach planet Earth). Therefore the infinite finity of creation means that consciousness must also be infinite, with an endless potential for thought and speculation. Like what I'm doing right now. : )
