Why it doesn't work to advertise the Law of One

So, I've been going on a deep study of the history of the Egyptian tarot, and in my journeys into esoterica from the past, there is always a concept that repeats that I've struggled with integrating: the concept of "to be silent".

A lot of books on ancient magic and mysteries tend to have an air of secrecy about them, with a tongue-in-cheek "partial" reveal. Indeed magical beings/groups (then & now) like to keep tight lips on their "secrets" (often with some sort of pay-to-play access). This obviously tends towards the negative, of keeping the light captive, of obscuring the truth. I'm not a big fan of this energy. As someone who has done a lot of work to interface with the Creator, I want to be as vulnerable and transparent as possible. I don't want to withhold the light from those who are seeking it.

The thing is, there is a delineation between "those who are seeking it" and those who are not. Of course on some profound level, all of us are seeking the Creator, but some people are firmly shut down into a state of lower consciousness, what Ra refers to as "sleep". Those of us who have found the Ra material are, at the very least, on the level of "initiate": Having already been introduced to the concept of spirit in a workable way. Not everyone then goes forward to work with the spirit, but the awareness removes a lot of shock from and creates the potential for the unknown being revealed in other ways.

Some people are very comfortable in the third density box that they have created for themselves. For them, the mundane is enough (at least for now). They are still fast asleep and dreaming - and of course, that's okay. Don asks how Ra would change how they dealt with those who were unpolarized on Venus in a different way with their awareness now. They said no - the way to serve the sleeping is to give them the comforts of sleep, because this is what they have discerned the sleeping want via empathy.

89.30 Questioner: Would Ra’s attitude toward the same unharvestable entities be different at this nexus than at the time of harvest of third density?

Ra: I am Ra. Not substantially. To those who wish to sleep we could only offer those comforts designed for the sleeping. Service is only possible to the extent it is requested. We were ready to serve in whatever way we could. This still seems satisfactory as a means of dealing with other-selves in third density. It is our feeling that to be each entity which one attempts to serve is to simplify the grasp of what service is necessary or possible.

Let's look at another example from the Ra material. When Ra speaks about Jesus, they say that he was able to maximize free will in two ways: By assuring those he healed that it was their own faith that healed them and not him, and advising people to "tell no one".

73.13 Questioner: What was the orientation with respect to this type of communication for the one known as Jesus of Nazareth?

Ra: I am Ra. You may have read some of this entity’s workings. It offered itself as teacher to those mind/body/spirit complexes which gathered to hear and even then spoke as through a veil so as to leave room for those not wishing to hear. When this entity was asked to heal, it oft times did so, always ending the working with two admonitions: firstly, that the entity healed had been healed by its faith, that is, its ability to allow and accept changes through the violet ray into the gateway of intelligent energy; secondly, saying always, “Tell no one.” These are the workings which attempt a maximal quality of free will while maintaining fidelity to the positive purity of the working.

A lot of us get very excited and animated and enlivened when we find the Ra material. It has a profound effect on our lives, and that's an understatement due to the limitations of language. We, understandably, want to share this joy of new awareness with our loved ones.

However, "new awareness" is an experience rooted in the potentials of infinity. It's a very personal and subjective thing. This is the Potentiator of the Spirit. The sudden light of "new awareness" can sometimes cause a total reorientation of our framework of experience. In the Lightning Struck Tower, there are two figures falling from the destroyed building. The tower is gone. Many try to live in a tower that has already been destroyed. Others sit around futilely patching all the holes so that their tower may never falter. Thus we experience the various types of cognitive dissonance that inhibit the potential of our human brains.

Not everyone is ripe for a paradigm shift. In fact, think of how you found the Ra material: did your friend tell you about it? Did someone come door to door handing out pamphlets on the good word of Ra? Not likely. When it happens, it's often one thread in a series of very personal discoveries that have ripened us to receive this information. It's a recognized reward for someone who has turned on their sixth sense and is looking for clues to the unknown. We have all woven our own tapestries for our life experiences. Those who are truly activated by these books in particular are a rare breed.

The Catalyst of the Spirit, then being hope, can also be despair. When our tower is knocked down, sure, sometimes we dust ourselves off and unceremoniously move into the next. Often, however, the despair of losing the useful framework of our hard earned and thoroughly lived thought constructs can be totally devastating, destabilizing, and disorientating. In the spirit, we are working with a tiny candle in the dark. As we do more work, our flame grows brighter. Those who haven't done much work in the spirit have only the tiniest little spark to help them through spiritual catalyst. They don't have the foundation to even begin to integrate what is actually a very high level magical tome. And for some, this can go very, very awry.

Ra speaks of this. Don, at one point during the contact, gave a lecture on UFOs, and was a bit disappointed in the turn out. He assumes in his question to Ra that if there was a UFO flap that had happened recently, it would have served as good "advertisement" and more people may have showed up. Ra says this may be true, however, the people who find Confederation philosophy via UFOs are in a very, very small minority. Finding this philosophy requires a "seniority of vibration": being further along the path than the default. People who are interested in UFOs run the gamut of spiritual awareness, however, the primary effects of UFOs on our social memory complex is so negative that it's arresting the harvest. So disclosure, according to Ra, isn't actually the smoothest path to fourth density on our warfare and conspiracy obsessed planet.

48.5 Questioner: My lecture yesterday was attended by only a few. If this had occurred during a UFO flap, as we call them, many more would have attended. But since Orion entities cause the flaps, primarily, what is Orion’s reward, shall I say, for visibility in that they actually create greater chances and opportunities for dissemination of information such as mine at this time?

Ra: I am Ra. This assumption is incorrect. The flaps cause many fears among your peoples, many speakings, understandings concerning plots, cover-ups, mutilations, killings, and other negative impressions. Even those supposedly positive reports which gain public awareness speak of doom. You may understand yourself as one who will be in the minority due to the understandings which you wish to share, if we may use that misnomer.

We perceive there is a further point we may posit at this time. The audience brought about by Orion-type publicity is not seeded by seniority of vibration to a great extent. The audiences receiving teach/learnings without stimulus from publicity will be more greatly oriented towards illumination. Therefore, forget you the counting.

If you're in tune with spirit, spirit leads you. All of us here know and have experienced this. Ra speaks of this as well when Don specifically asks about advertising the books. Ra says don't do that, it's not useful for everyone. People will find it when they need it, just as you have received what you need. Have faith!

8.1 Questioner: I have a question about \[what\] I call the advertising of the Confederation. It has to do with free will. There have been certain contacts allowed, as I understand, by the Council, but this is limited because of free will of those who are not oriented in such a way that they could maybe want contact. This material that we are doing now will be disseminated. Dissemination of this material will be dependent upon the wants of \[a\] relatively small number of people on the planet. Many people on the planet now want this material, but even though we disseminate it they will not be aware it is available. Is there any possibility of creating some effect which I would call advertising, or is this against the principle of free will?

Ra: I am Ra. Consider, if you will, the path your life-experience complex has taken. Consider the coincidences and odd circumstances by which one thing flowed to the next. Consider this well.

Each entity will receive the opportunity that each needs. This information source-beingness does not have uses in the life-experience complex of each of those among your peoples who seek. Thus the advertisement is general and not designed to indicate the searching out of any particular material, but only to suggest the noumenal aspect of the illusion.

Bursting at the seems wanting to talk about the metaphysical is a common state of being for those of us energized by the spirit. However, there is a time and a place. For some, that moment in space/time may be long coming. Others may easily find a metaphysically oriented group to talk about these concepts. Maybe you get super extra lucky and get to have family to talk about this stuff with. We all have different paths. For most of us, the path of the spirit is quite lonely. Of course we want friends to try to find the words to talk about this whole new experience of self, and we want to bring those we love into the peace we've received from this new awareness of being. It's a very very normal desire. This loneliness and apparent rejection is also incredible grist for the mill of the spirit.

What I can tell you is that patience is often the catalyst. And for me, I can say that at my last job, I actually gave two people hard copies of the Ra books because we had organic conversations that I was able to bring there. And one of those people actually followed up with increased questions and interest afterwards. Finding people who resonate with this material is very rare, but it's possible. Others have different plans/journeys/experiences that will lead them to the Creator, whether they find it in a book, a person, a religion, a song... whatever it may be. It will be profound for them in the same way that the Law of One has been profound for us.

Ra says the best way to "advertise" the material is twofold: One, learn to embody the Creator yourself, so other seekers can see the divine through you. Second, to speak of the "noumenal aspects" of the illusion - that is, the metaphysical. The way I've interpreted and engaged with this is to drop timely hints about how we are creating our reality with our minds. This is an art of itself, but if you have a job where you are engaging with a high number of people each day (I was a waitress), you will begin to see the opportunities to, for instance, draw attention to or make jest about coincidences. I always find this a fun way to drop a little seed with no attachment to the outcome.

We all have a path. Religious/spiritual/evangelical trauma may delay someone from finding their specific path in the future. So, please don't go around smashing people's towers. Remember their free will to experience the Creator on their terms. Maybe you'll find someone who is peering out of the cracks of a pile of rubble, talking about how crappy their current tower is, and longing for a new one. There you may find an open door. Otherwise, you should assume the door is shut, and continue working on the self as a means of increasing the available light to those who remain in darkness.
