Dear Family,
“And here’s something else; I think it’s another kind of seed, the seed of the 5th Epiphany“
I wrote this in the previous Blog when referring to Session 82.6 of the Law, let’s see why:
To the question, Am I correct in assuming that at the beginning of this octave, out of what I would call a void of space, the seeds of an infinite number of galactic systems such as the Milky Way Galaxy appeared and grew in spiral fashion simultaneously? Ra replies that the basic concept is reasonably well expressed with two exceptions:
“The nature of true simultaneity is such that, indeed, all is simultaneous. However, in your modes of perception you would perhaps more properly view the seeding of the creation as that of growth from the center or core outward.
The second confusion lies in the term, “void.” We would substitute the noun, “plenum.” Authors Note:
In this context, plenum can be defined as “a space which is filled [as opposed to empty].”
From < https://www.llresearch.org/channeling/ra-contact/82#fn:2>
The question is practically whether the Big Bang is true? Ra tells us that creation was effected by ‘sowing seeds’, but it did not happen all at once but grew from a central point. On the other hand, he affirms that the sowing was in a ‘filled’ place, not in a void.
I further note an earlier clarification in 82.4 when Ra says that at the beginning of this octave, the phrase ‘infinite intelligence had experienced previous octaves’ was more informative than ‘created and experienced’, as Dr Elkins suggested.
Meditating on all this I arrive at an interpretation (again strictly personal) that includes several points:
- Creation and octave (universe) are related but not the same. Therefore it is feasible to have ‘universes’ within One Creation.
- The Big Bang may come close to describing the origin of a universe but not of a creation. (Science has long pointed out multiple inconsistencies in this theory.)
- From the point of view of Original Thought, before space/time, and Time/space itself, everything had to be ‘though outt’ before it was created and therefore everything is simultaneous. But, in our space/time, the perception of simultaneity is different.
- Finally, and as we say in Colombia: this is the “lid of the pot”, universes do not start at zero but in the middle of ‘everything’.
A Google search for Plenum informs me of the following:
Physics
PLENUM
a space completely filled with matter, or the whole of space so regarded.
“so long as things move simultaneously into each other’s places, motion is possible in a plenum “
And this suggests to me the necessity of the rotational motion that seems to predominate in the universes. (another one of my crazy ideas? Maybe not so much; see note on the ‘ouroboros’ in my second P.S.).
As all this turns my whole previous thinking base upside down, I must necessarily imagine a new Epiphany, the Fifth! Let us consider, then, with this new basis of thinking, the other ‘bricks’ that I promised in Blog 19. Let’s start with God’s Plan revealed in 82:10:
“This is the plan of the One Infinite Creator. The One Original Thought is the harvest of all previous, if you would use this term, experience of the Creator by the Creator.
As It decides to know Itself, It generates Itself into that plenum, full of the glory and the power of the One Infinite Creator, which is manifested to your perceptions as space or outer space. Each generation of this knowing begets a knowing which has the capacity, through free will, to choose methods of knowing Itself.
Therefore, gradually, step by step, the Creator becomes that which may know Itself, and the portions of the Creator partake less purely in the power of the original word or thought. This is for the purpose of refinement of the One Original Thought. The Creator does not properly create as much as It experiences Itself.“
Let’s go slowly and patiently. This may require several more Blogs; but as I emphasize in the highlighted and underlined, it is the same way of the Creator. And it ‘coincides’ with what Ra told us in 13:16 where he explains that our journey ‘recapitulates’ (in biology: repeats) that of the Creator Himself in His discovery of consciousness.
I am Ra. Each step recapitulates intelligent infinity in its discovery of awareness. In a planetary environment, all begins in what you would call chaos, energy undirected and random in its infinity. Slowly, in your terms of understanding, there forms a focus of self-awareness. Thus the Logos moves. Light comes to form the darkness according to the co-Creator’s patterns and vibratory rhythms, so constructing a certain type of experience.
This begins with first density which is the density of consciousness, the mineral and water life upon the planet learning from fire and wind the awareness of being. This is the first density.
From < https://www.llresearch.org/channeling/ra-contact/13#16>
We can therefore think that God contemplated a chaotic infinity, that He eventually focused on something we call energy and this focus or concentration was transformed into a mysterious self-awareness that led Him to realize Himself. It may sound and be very ‘mysterious’ but going back to my first memories I think I glimpse that this is exactly the same thing that happened to me.
I first noticed an infinity of things, people and animals around me and eventually I became aware of myself and recognized myself in a mirror of water in that river in a place called Bagazal. I did not drown by the timely intervention of a hand and since then I have had an enormous curiosity to know myself. I dare to imagine that the same thing happens to all living beings capable of thinking. (Of course, the river episode has probably been replaced by another catalyst.) So ‘mysterious’, but ordinary and frequent.
Let’s remember what was studied in Blog 18 about distortions, the first, free will was the condition to discover the finite and God make the decision to know Himself and elaborate His Plan. The second, to Create the infinite Force to transform infinite intelligence into infinite energy and the latter from potential to kinetic. This Force is referred to by Ra as Logos or Love. And then the Logos or Love creates the Light, the third distortion that is the key to creating matter and the Universes.
So I can assume that these first three distortions are prior and indispensable to everything material. And the Plan, which includes our creation, our Higher Self, metaphysical and spiritual, precedes the material and finite.
Continuing my walk through the Law, I find in several places references to micro and macrocosm, the definitions I found in 4.17, consciousness is the microcosm of the Law of One. And in 28.1, the one undifferentiated intelligent infinity, unpolarized, full and whole, is the macrocosm of the mystery-clad being.
And in 51.10 he tells us that the Creator, the Intelligent Infinite, in both the micro and macro cosmos, has two aspects, the undifferentiated and the one enhanced by Free Will, through the first distortion.
I can therefore deduce that Creation has two natures, coming from the same Creator but not necessarily subject to the same laws. This and the revelation that God has arranged in His Plan for ‘persons’ to repeat exactly the same path He followed when and after discovering awareness, has made it much easier for me to clarify my perceptions of who I am. I am a person. (And this idiot (me), needs all this blah-blah-blah to reach this conclusion?)
Let’s stop for a moment to review the reference to ‘persons’; for which I must comment here on the complete paragraph 51.10:
The indigo body may be seen to be an analog for intelligent energy. It is, in microcosm, the Logos. The intelligent energy of the mind/body/spirit complex totality draws its existence from intelligent infinity, or the Creator. This Creator is to be understood, both in macrocosm and microcosm, to have, as we have said, two natures: the unpotentiated infinity which is intelligent—this is all that there is. 1
Free Will has potentiated both the Creator of us all and our selves as co-Creators with intelligent infinity which has will. This will may be drawn upon by the indigo, or form-making, body, and its wisdom used to then choose the appropriate locus and type of experience which this co-Creator, or sub-sub-Logos you call so carelessly a person, will take.
The second thing to highlight in order to make sense of this tremendous revelation is to clarify what the indigo body is. In summary, in 47.8 Ra explains that the number seven repeats itself from the macrocosm to the microcosm in structure and experience. Therefore, one would expect that there would be seven basic bodies and he proceeds to point out that to each macro density there are micro correspondences and we can speak of 7 bodies:
Red(1a)- elemental and amorphous chemical body.
Orange (2a)- complex body, in the womb, formed but without self-consciousness, (before the mind/spirit complex enters).
Yellow (3a) – our mind/body/spirit complex,
Green (4a) – a lighter body, the ectoplasm, which can be seen in séances. Also called the astral body.
Blue (5a), or light body, also called Devachanic. There are many types, described especially in the Hindu Sutras (scriptures).
Indigo (6a and 7a)- (also called etheric) is the ‘portal’ body in which form is substance, and you may only see this body as that of light as it may mold itself as it desires. The portal refers to the fact that this is the metaphysical body that is adopted both when entering (incarnating or being born) into 3rd physical density, and when leaving it (physically dying).
Violet (7th and 8th) – you can call it the Buddha’s body, or the body that is complete
. (The number 7 that is repeated refers to the fact that the eighth density is also the first of the next scale or octave, so that there are really only seven densities.)
He also clarifies that this (colored bodies) can be confusing because various teachers have used other names to refer to these ‘subtle bodies’. In reality, in each density there are many types of bodies, just as we can see in ours.
The analogies with the macrocosm go further, and in 48.7 Ra he reveals to us this beauty:
“Entrance into incarnation requires the investment, or activation, of the indigo-ray, or etheric body, for this is the form maker. The young, or small, physical mind/body/spirit complex has the seven energy centers potentiated before the birthing process. There are also analogs in time/space of these energy centers corresponding to the seven energy centers in each of the seven true-color densities. Thus in the microcosm exists all the experience that is prepared. It is as though the infant contains the universe.”
I have highlighted and underlined the word “investiture” to refer to it in a postscript at the end of this Blog, that I consider important. But here I must emphasize how the microcosm (consciousness) can be considered as the seed of all Creation and of the Creator Himself. And I, a person, am part of that seed! Ra is right when he says that we are careless in giving almost no importance to the concept of person.(Let’s note why the blah-blah-blah is needed).
There are other clues to be found but for now let me summarize in the following paragraphs the perceptions that I have visualized based on what I have found, but without detailing the specific sites as that would disproportionately increase the heaviness and length of this Blog. (It is undoubted that in later Blogs there will be the need to go into these details).
The repetition of the number 7 seems to extend throughout creation. Therefore we can anticipate that there are seven types of mind and also of spirit. But also each type of mind, body, spirit and density has 7 sub-types and each of these, 7 sub-sub-types and so on. And this seems to be due to evolution; Before ‘Our Universe’ things were much simpler
Indeed, at the beginning of our octave our personalities (mind, body, spirit) were simple. The complexity increased as the Veil was introduced and caused the “forgetfulness” of God. The Law contains numerous Sessions where Ra comments on the secrets of the Tarot (a teaching aid that Ra initially used in his contacts with the Egyptians). He concentrates on the 21 cards called archetypes (7 for each: mind, body and spirit) and reveals that before the veil he would have only needed 9, (three for each). And I dare to think that for the original creation he would have only needed one.
The complexity has been growing as the universes repeat themselves. Our 3rd density chemical bodies are only vehicles that God, through our Higher Selves, uses to acquire the experiences conducive to increasing Self-knowledge.
Specifically about evolution in 3rd density, let’s go to 21.9 and for today, let’s linger only at the part where Ra tells us that the animal newly entering this density is only oriented towards the innocent survival of the fittest behavior, (remember Darwin), but that it slowly becomes aware of non-animal needs and useless for survival. such as company, laughter, beauty and getting to know the universe that surrounds him. As he accumulates incarnations, he discovers new needs, that of trading, that of loving, that of being loved, and that of elevating his animal behavior to a more universal perspective. Your energy centers (chakras) begin to be activated and the content of the experience has more and more to do with the lessons of love.
Then the divine Plan for incarnations in 3rd density should be clear to me: to understand in the depths of our mind the nature and need to transcend our animal instincts and behavior. But, in this octave (or Universe), freely and through love. These are the two variables that the Creator has arranged to keep fixed for this experiment. And this gives me an answer to the third existential question: Why did we come here?
Ra insists that in order to continue evolving we must succeed in lifting the Veil. And how to do it? Ra tells us to balance our chakras. The Course, without going into detail, tells us to forget the Veil, just remember that you are as God originally created you. This gives me a basis for many thoughts and comparisons, but as I have already extended myself beyond the normal, let’s leave it for the next Blog, along with the comments on the Trillion Theory, but not before noting that both the Course and the Theory fit perfectly within the Law divulged by Ra.
I love you with or without a Veil,
Alberto
P.S. Invest/Investiture. Nowadays this word in English refers exclusively to investing money for profit; but the meaning that Ra gives it in this and other passages is ‘wrapping the body with some garment’ which it had some time in the past. There is no doubt that capitalis, in the last two hundred years, has appropriated this word.
P.S.#2 Suddenly (of course just by coincidence), I had the impulse to google ‘oroboros’. Just look what I found:
The Ouroboros is an ancient symbol of a serpent or dragon eating its own tail, representing eternity, cyclicality, and the infinite loop of self-creation, destruction, and rebirth. Originating in ancient Egypt (found in Tutankhamun’s tomb), it signifies unity, primordial wholeness, and the continuous cycle of life, death, and regeneration, adopted by Gnosticism, Hermeticism, and notably alchemy to symbolize the alchemist’s circular work, as described on the Willamette University Library and as detailed in a Willamette University Library exhibit.

Isn’t it estrange that just ‘by coincidence’ I(we) have landed on this millenary knowledge? Thanks dear hand!.
