Hello all,
this section,for me,is about the intellect;very important to own this for sure.What would be the next level after that? What lies beyond the intellect?Miracles?
Kind regards,
frans

First paragraph on page 39 -"...the planes can be thought of as furnishing the background for the activity of the planet, while the Rays modify the nature of that activity." I like this concise description. Like the beautifully diverse Rays of Spirit having incredible variety of playgrounds to explore and create in.
Frans- "Does the observer change the space or do we become aware of what was always there?" - could it be both like... The act of observing what was there changes it?... I don't know, yet for me your question makes me think of statements like 'union of opposites' & 'resolution of paradox'.

for me these pages are very hard to grasp,don't really understand it yet. my earlier comment revers to the pages 20-30, by mistake i put it here. there are 7 planes and each plane is devided again into 7 and so on.there are 7 rays that correspond to ursa major while the planes relate to the pleiades. don't really understand it  as for our earlier discussion Bryan,having read on i think space was never empty,space is god/all that is we just cannot observe it all. yes Karin the soul level the miracles are in the virgin earth....lazaris. |

hi all... first of all i liked how involution and evolution are explained..somehow never realised what is what..now i do..  second, how the etheric body is so important in relation to the physical body, i feel there is so much information behind all that..........cannot fully grasp it yet..but i hope i will at some point.. great bit about cause and effect, and riddle, combined with the idea that time is an illusion, makes me smile...what is the cause of what effect, or is the effect the cause of...etc..love it...and then the statement that if this law was not around, all would vanish..makes me wonder about what cause we are the effect of.!!! |

Bryan - I agree with your response to Frans' question "Does the observer change the space or do we become aware of what was always there?" - could it be both like... The act of observing what was there changes it?... I don't know, yet for me your question makes me think of statements like 'union of opposites' & 'resolution of paradox'. My thought was 'truth lies in paradox'.
Karin - I feel the same about the etheric body. I feel a hunger to fill an emptiness in my understanding. It's the same with the 7 planes and 7 rays and how they triangulate with zodiacal signs, sun then planets. It would be nice if we had a 3-D model showing how this works.
Overall, this section feels like a fleeting glance at something spectacularly delicious.

Aloha ALL -
pp20 through p40 was like a jump into hyper space-speed through the ideas from HP Blavatsky's The Secret Doctrine and DK's-AAB A Treatise on Cosmic Fire; the 2 alleged volumes one describing the physical formations of cosmogenesis and anthropogenesis and the other the psychological key to the same material. On page 40: " To realize how karma can be offset, it is necessary to see its relationship to the idea of time."....
I find the thought that time is suggested to be considered as an idea from which Cause and Effectcan be reconditioned. This idea is also indicated in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and in other Ancient Wisdom Teachings both Eastern and Western especially when what I have heard it compared to a re-mortgaging to create different balances and differing pivot points in the life of those who have chosen to practice service where life needs some cooperative efforts to adapt or adjust time-space limiting conditions [karmas] not only those that we have made, but from aeons of time ago from the very nature of the substances that have been left with residual effects from planetary lives that have long been outlived.
Some of these ideas came from the questions and comments of the RB Study group about the impact of the Observer on the witnessing of that which is observed. I want to read again the section in full through p52 to try to get a an increased nuance of essential understanding. And for me, the mental is moved towards the Buddhic and Atmic perceptions from which the first glimpses of the Real can reveal the distinction from the Unreal as it is sometimes described when considerting the Higher Triad in relationship to the Soul. Plenty gratitude for this opportunity.
Kindly,David
