The Law of One Category The Two Paths

16.31 Questioner: I would like to make an analogy about why there are
fewer negatively oriented and ask you if the analogy is good.
In a positively oriented society with service to others, it would be simple to
move a large boulder by getting everyone to help move it. In a society
oriented towards service to self, it would be much more difficult to get
everyone to work on the boulder for the good of all; therefore, it is much
easier to get things done to create the service-to-other principle and to grow
in positively oriented communities than it is in negative. Is this correct?
[Inaudible]
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

19.16 Questioner: Then, through free will, some time in the third-density
experience, the path splits and an entity consciously probably does not
consciously choose. Does an entity consciously choose this path at the
initial splitting point?
Ra: I am Ra. We speak in generalities which is dangerous for always
inaccurate. However, we realize you look for the overview; so we will
eliminate anomalies and speak of majorities.
The majority of third-density beings is far along the chosen path before
realization of that path is conscious.
Category: The Two Paths
19.17 Questioner: Can you tell me what bias creates their momentum
toward the chosen path of service to self?
Ra: I am Ra. We can speak only in metaphor. Some love the light. Some
love the darkness. It is a matter of the unique and infinitely various Creator
choosing and playing among its experiences as a child upon a picnic. Some
enjoy the picnic and find the sun beautiful, the food delicious, the games
refreshing, and glow with the joy of creation. Some find the night delicious,
their picnic being pain, difficulty, sufferings of others, and the examination of
the perversities of nature. These enjoy a different picnic.
All these experiences are available. It is free will of each entity which
chooses the form of play, the form of pleasure.

19.18 Questioner: I assume that an entity on either path can decide to
choose paths at any time and possibly retrace steps, the path-changing
being more difficult the farther along is gone. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. The further an entity has, what you would
call, polarized, the more easily this entity may change polarity, for the more
power and awareness the entity will have.
Those truly helpless are those who have not consciously chosen but who
repeat patterns without knowledge of the repetition or the meaning of the
pattern.

19.19 Questioner: I believe we have a very, very important point here. It
then seems that there is an extreme potential in this polarization the same
as there is in to make an analogy, using electricity: We have a positive
and negative pole. The more you build the charge on either of these, the
greater the potential difference and the greater the ability to do work, as we
call it, in the physical.
This would seem to me to be the exact analogy that we have in
consciousness here. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct.
Category: The Two Paths
20.9 Questioner: Thank you. Yesterday we were speaking of the split that
takes place in third density when an entity either consciously or because of
bias chooses the path of service to others or service to self. The
philosophical question of why such a split even exists came up. It is my
impression that as it is in electricity, if we have no polarity in electricity we
have no electricity; we have no action, we have no. Therefore, I am
assuming that in consciousness without such polarity there would be no
action or experience. Is this correct?
Ra: This is correct. You may use the general term work.
Category: The Two Paths

20.10 Questioner: Then the concept of service to self or service to others

is mandatory if we wish to have work, whether it be work in consciousness
or work in the mechanical or Newtonian concept in the physical. Is this
correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct with one addendum. The coil, as you may
understand this term, is wound, is potential, is ready. The thing that is
missing without polarizing is the charge.
Category: The Two Paths
20.11 Questioner: Then the charge is provided by individualized
consciousness. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. The charge is provided by the individualized entity using the
inpourings and instreamings of energy by the choices of free will.
Category: The Two Paths
39.12 Questioner: Is this also true of all the other rays?
Ra: I am Ra. We shall answer briefly. You may question further at another
working.
The negative ray pattern is the red/orange/yellow moving directly to the blue
[indigo?], this being only used in order to contact intelligent infinity.
In positively oriented entities the configuration is even, crystallinely clear,
and of the seven ray description.
Are there any short queries before we leave this instrument?
Categories: Energy Centers, The Two Paths
46.10 Questioner: Then as I understand it you are saying that if the
positively polarizing entity fails to accept the other-self or if the negatively
polarizing entity fails to control the other-self, either of these conditions will
cause cancer, possibly. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is partially correct. The first acceptance, or control
depending upon polarity, is of the self. Anger is one of many things to be
accepted and loved as a part of self or controlled as a part of self, if the
entity is to do work.
Category: The Two Paths

54.25 Questioner: Then it seems that those on the positive path as

opposed to those on the negative path would have precisely the reciprocal
objective in the first three rays; red, orange, and yellow. Each path would be
attempting to utilize the rays in precisely opposite manners. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. It is partially and even substantially correct. There is an
energy in each of the centers needed to keep the mind/body/spirit complex,
which is the vehicle for experience, in correct conformation and
composition. Both negative and positive entities do well to reserve this
small portion of each center for the maintenance of the integrity of the
mind/body/spirit complex. After this point, however, it is correct that the
negative will use the three lower centers for separation from and control
over others by sexual means, by personal assertion, and by action in your
societies.
Contrary-wise, the positively oriented entity will be transmuting strong redray sexual energy into green-ray energy transfers and radiation in blue and
indigo and will be similarly transmuting selfhood and place in society into
energy transfer situations in which the entity may merge with and serve
others and then, finally, radiate unto others without expecting any transfer in
return.
Category: The Two Paths
64.16 Questioner: Let us assume that a bodily distortion occurs within a
particular entity who then has a choice of seeking allopathic aid or
experiencing the catalyst of the distortion and not seeking correction of the
distortion. Can you comment on [the] two possibilities for this entity and his
analysis of each path?
Ra: I am Ra. If the entity is polarized towards service to others, analysis
properly proceeds along the lines of consideration of which path offers the
most opportunity for service to others.
For the negatively polarized entity the antithesis is the case.
For the unpolarized entity the considerations are random and most likely in
the direction of the distortion towards comfort.
Category: The Two Paths
69.11 Questioner: Can you tell me of the situation that the Wanderer finds
itself in and why the path back cannot be the simple moving back into the
same value of positive time/space?

Ra: I am Ra. The path back revolves, firstly, about the higher selfs
reluctance to enter negative space/time. This may be a significant part of
the length of that path. Secondly, when a positively oriented entity
incarnates in a thoroughly negative environment it must needs learn/teach
the lessons of the love of self thus becoming one with its other-selves.
When this has been accomplished the entity may then choose to release
the potential difference and change polarities.
However, the process of learning the accumulated lessons of love of self
may be quite lengthy. Also the entity, in learning these lessons, may lose
much positive orientation during the process and the choice of reversing
polarities may be delayed until the mid-sixth density. All of this is, in your
way of measurement, time-consuming although the end result is well.
Category: The Two Paths
71.14 Questioner: You have made the statement that pure negativity acts
as a gravity well pulling all into it. I was wondering first if pure positivity has
precisely the same effect? Could you answer that please?
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. Positivity has a much weaker effect due to
the strong element of recognition of free will in any positivity approaching
purity. Thus although the negatively oriented entity may find it difficult to
polarize negatively in the midst of such resounding harmony it will not find it
impossible.
Upon the other hand, the negative polarization is one which does not
accept the concept of the free will of other-selves. Thusly in a social
complex whose negativity approaches purity the pull upon other-selves is
constant. A positively oriented entity in such a situation would desire for
other-selves to have their free will and thusly would find itself removed from
its ability to exercise its own free will, for the free will of negatively oriented
entities is bent upon conquest.
Category: The Two Paths
73.4 Questioner: What I was trying to get at was that this alerting of light
strength is, as I see it, a process that must be totally a function of free will,
as you say, and as the desire and will and purity of desire of the adept or
operator increases, the alerting of light strength increases. Is this part of it
the same for both positive and negative potentials and am I correct with this
statement?

Ra: I am Ra. To avoid confusion we shall simply restate for clarity your
correct assumption.
Those who are upon the service-to-others path may call upon the light
strength in direct proportion to the strength and purity of their will to serve.
Those upon the service-to-self path may call upon the dark strength in
direct proportion to the strength and purity of their will to serve.
Category: The Two Paths
78.25 Questioner: Then you are saying as a result of the polarization in
consciousness that has occurred later in the galactic evolution, that the
experiences are much more, shall I say, profound or deeper along the two
paths. Are these experiences independent of the other path or must there
be action across the potentiated difference between the positive and
negative polarity, or is it possible to have this experience simply because of
the single polarity? This is difficult to ask.
Ra: I am Ra. We would agree. We shall attempt to pluck the gist of your
query from the surrounding verbiage.
The fourth and fifth densities are quite independent, the positive polarity
functioning with no need of negative and vice-versa. It is to be noted that in
attempting to sway third-density mind/body/spirit complexes in choosing
polarity there evolves a good bit of interaction between the two polarities. In
sixth density, the density of unity, the positive and negative paths must
needs take in each other for all now must be seen as love/light and
light/love. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, which sends love and
light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for service-to-self polarized
entities that at some point the negative polarity is abandoned.

80.9 Questioner: Are you saying, then, that this power is of the spirit and
not of the mind or the body?
Ra: I am Ra. The work of the adept is based upon previous work with the
mind and the body, else work with the spirit would not be possible on a
dependable basis. With this comment we may assert the correctness of
your assumption.
Category: The Two Paths

80.11 Questioner: Could I say, then, that implicit in the process of

becoming adept is the possible partial polarization towards service to self
because simply the adept becomes disassociated with many of his kind or
like in the particular density which he inhabits?
Ra: I am Ra. This is likely to occur. The apparent happening is
disassociation whether the truth is service to self and thus true
disassociation from other-selves or service to others and thus true
association with the heart of all other-selves and disassociation only from
the illusory husks which prevent the adept from correctly perceiving the self
and other-self as one.
Category: The Two Paths
80.12 Questioner: Then you say that this effect of disassociation on the
service-to-others adept is a stumbling block or slowing process in reaching
that goal which he aspires to? Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. This disassociation from the miasma of
illusion and misrepresentation of each and every distortion is a quite
necessary portion of an adepts path. It may be seen by others to be
unfortunate.
Category: The Two Paths
80.14 Questioner: [I] didnt intend to get too far ahead of my questioning
process here. The either positively or negatively polarized adept, then, is
building a potential to draw directly on the spirit for power. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. It would be more proper to say that the adept is calling directly
through the spirit to the universe for its power, for the spirit is a shuttle.
Category: The Two Paths
85.9 Questioner: I am assuming that, if for no other reason, since our fifthdensity companion has been monitoring our communications with Ra it has
been made aware of the veiling process of which we have been speaking.
And it seems to me that, from an intellectual point of view, that conscious
knowledge and acceptance of the fact that this veiling process was used for
the purpose for which it was used, that it would be difficult to maintain high
negative polarization once it was intellectually consciously accepted that
this veiling process did in fact occur the way that you have described. Could
you clear up my thinking on that point?

Ra: I am Ra. We are unsure as to our success in realigning your modes of

mentation. We may, however, comment.
The polarization process, as it enters fourth density, is one which occurs
with full knowledge of the veiling process which has taken place in third
density. This veiling process is that which is a portion of the third-density
experience. The knowledge and memory of the outcome of this and all
portions of the third-density experience informs the higher-density polarized
entity. It, however, does not influence the choice which has been made and
which is the basis for further work past third density in polarization. Those
which have chosen the service-to-others* path have simply used the veiling
process in order to potentiate that which is not. This is an entirely
acceptable method of self-knowledge of and by the Creator.
* This should be service-to-self. Don and Ra corrected the error later in the
session.
Categories: The Two Paths, Third Density: The Veil
85.10 Questioner: You just stated that those who are on the service-toothers* path use the veiling process to potentiate that which is not. I believe
I am correct in repeating what you said. Is that correct?
* This should be service-to-self. Don and Ra corrected the error later in the
session.
Ra: I am Ra. Yes.
Category: The Two Paths
85.11 Questioner: Then the service-to-others path have potentiated that
which is not. Could you expand that a little bit so I can understand it better?
Ra: I am Ra. If you see the energy centers in their various colors
completing the spectrum you may see that the service-to-others* choice is
one which denies the very center of the spectrum; that being universal love.
Therefore, all that is built upon the penetration of the light of harvestable
quality by such entities is based upon an omission. This omission shall
manifest in fourth density as the love of self; that is, the fullest expression of
the orange and yellow energy centers which then are used to potentiate
communication and adepthood.
When fifth-density refinement has been achieved that which is not is carried
further, the wisdom density being explored by entities which have no

compassion, no universal love. They experience that which they wish by

free choice, being of the earnest opinion that green-ray energy is folly.
That which is not may be seen as a self-imposed darkness in which
harmony is turned into an eternal disharmony. However, that which is not
cannot endure throughout the octave of third density and, as darkness
eventually calls the light, so does that which is not eventually call that which
is.
* This should be service-to-self. Don and Ra corrected the error later in the
session.
Category: The Two Paths
85.12 Questioner: I believe that there were salient errors in the
communication we just completed because of transmission difficulties. Are
you aware of these errors?
Ra: I am Ra. We are unaware of errors although this instrument is
experiencing flares of pain, as you call this distortion. We welcome and
encourage your perceptions in correcting any errors in transmission.
Category: The Two Paths
85.13 Questioner: I think simply that the statement was made that we were
speaking of the service-to-others path. Would you check that, please?
Ra: I am Ra. May we ask that you be apprised of our intention to have
spoken of the service-to-self path as the path of that which is not.
Category: The Two Paths
93.3 Questioner: Thank you. The foundation of our present illusion we
have stated previously to be the concept of polarity. I would ask that since
we have defined the two polarities as service to others and service to self,
is there a more complete or eloquent or enlightening definition or any more
information that we dont have at this time on the two ends of the poles that
would give us a better insight into the nature of polarity itself?
Ra: I am Ra. It is unlikely that there is a more pithy or eloquent description
of the polarities of third density than service to others and service to self
due to the nature of the mind/body/spirit complexes distortions towards
perceiving concepts relating to philosophy in terms of ethics or activity.
However, we might consider the polarities using slightly variant terms. In

this way a possible enrichment of insight might be achieved for some.

One might consider the polarities with the literal nature enjoyed by the
physical polarity of the magnet. The negative and positive, with their
electrical characteristics, may be seen to be just as in the physical sense. It
is to be noted in this context that it is quite impossible to judge the polarity
of an act or an entity, just as it is impossible to judge the relative goodness
of the negative and positive poles of the magnet.
Another method of viewing polarities might involve the concept of
radiation/absorption. That which is positive is radiant; that which is negative
is absorbent.
