hi to all! this is my third attempt to post on this thread. my first reply was cheeky and i deleted it after it was posted [which i was surprised at] and by the time i sent my second reply i was logged out and lost my work. it was either a sign that what i was saying was inappropriate or some other force didn't want this stuff floating around.

hi johnasmodeum! my initial reaction to your post was i must admit , negative. as the thread moved along, i became more and more judgemental.
i was really drawn into it however, and felt i should say something. while thinking about it i remembered a dream that i had over 20 years ago. during that period of my life, i was reading as many esoteric material as i could get my hands on and was also into tarot. i was using the thoth deck, so i very much had all the imagery of these particular cards deeply etched in my mind. in my dream, i was brought before the high priestess with justice standing in the distant background to the right. some cards were spread out in front of me and i was supposed to read them. perhaps not so much read them but present the knowledge that i had attained. i couln't think of anything and my reply was that i knew nothing. that was it. end of dream. when i woke up, i felt totally devastated. i had been given a chance to prove myself and i had failed miserably. i kept going over this time and time again, wondering why i had given such an answer when i knew so much.

yesterday, i remembered this dream again and went searching in the forum archives to get others insights on the priestess and came across a thread titled "free will." one of the posts is by tiffani boswell and in it she quotes the following from the ra and qu'o material.

"if you can trust destiny enough to release the attempts to control it, the natural waves moving out from the centre of that kindly destiny which is each seekers will gradually take that seeker upon the path and in the direction which is deeply desired."

"the greatest wisdom that you shall ever learn at this time is that you cannot know anything; in other words, that your incarnation is based completely upon faith. you are on a journey in uncharted waters and your intellect will not be able to be so wise as so steer your spiritual journey. many mistakenly attempt to live a spiritual life coming from the intellect and from wisdom. however, this energy does not make use of the open heart and it will not take you far. and those seas into which it pitches you will be as the seas you left behind to seek wisdom. it is our understanding, rather, that your destiny is a starkly simple stage set for making one choice again and again and that is the choice to love and to be loved."

isn't it just beautiful!

love
