Definition of "Galaxy"

The Law of One, Book I, Session 10

Questioner: Only one, other than what we can do to make the instrument more comfortable.

I would like to have your definition of galaxy, the word “galaxy” as you have used it.


Ra: I am Ra. We use the term known to your people by the sound vibration “galaxy.”

We accept that some galaxies contain one system of planetary and solar groups.

Others contain several.

However, the importance of the locus in infinite time/space dimensionality is so little that we accept the distortion implicit in such an ambiguous term.

Questioner: Then the nine planets and sun which we have here in our system, would you refer to that as a galaxy?

Ra: I am Ra. We would not.

Questioner: How many stars would be—approximately—in a galaxy?

Ra: I am Ra. It depends upon the galactic system.

Your own, as you know, contains many, many, millions of planetary entities and star bodies.

Questioner: I was just trying to get to the definition that you were using for galaxy.

You mentioned a couple of times the term galaxy in reference to what we call a planetary system and it was causing some confusion.

Is there any way that we can make the instrument more comfortable?

The Law of One, Book I, Session 16

Questioner: Would you define the word galaxy as you just used it?

Ra: I am Ra. We use that term in this sense as you would use star systems.

Questioner: I’m a little bit confused as to how many total planets the Confederation that you are in serves?

Ra: I am Ra. I see the confusion.

We have difficulty with your language

The galaxy term must be split

We call galaxy that vibrational complex that is local.

Thus, your sun is what we would call the center of a galaxy. 

We see you have another meaning for this term.

Questioner: Yes.

In our science the term galaxy refers to the lenticular star system that contains millions and millions of stars. 

There was a confusion about this in one of our earlier communications, and I’m glad to get it cleared up. 

Using the term galaxy in the sense that I just stated, using the lenticular star system that contains millions of stars, do you know of evolution in other galaxies besides this one?

Ra: I am Ra. We are aware of life in infinite capacity

You are correct in this assumption.

The Law of One, Book II, Session 28

Questioner: Thank you. 

Does a unit of consciousness, an individualized unit of consciousness, create a unit of the creation? 

I will give an example.


One individualized consciousness creates one galaxy of stars, the type that has many millions of stars in it. 

Does this happen?


Ra: I am Ra. This can happen

The possibilities are infinite

Thus a Logos may create what you call a star system or it may be the Logos creating billions of star systems

This is the cause of the confusion in the term galaxy, for there are many different Logos entities or creations and we would call each, using your sound vibration complexes, a galaxy.

Basic Understanding of The Creation of Universes & Their Corresponding Octaves

The Law of One, Book II, Session 28

Questioner: Thank you. 

Does a unit of consciousness, an individualized unit of consciousness, create a unit of the creation? 

I will give an example.


One individualized consciousness creates one galaxy of stars, the type that has many millions of stars in it. 

Does this happen?


Ra: I am Ra. This can happen

The possibilities are infinite

Thus a Logos may create what you call a star system or it may be the Logos creating billions of star systems

This is the cause of the confusion in the term galaxy, for there are many different Logos entities or creations and we would call each, using your sound vibration complexes, a galaxy.

Questioner: Let’s take as an example the planet that we are on now and tell me how much of the creation was created by the same Logos that created this planet?

Ra: I am Ra. This planetary Logos is a strong Logos creating approximately 250 billion of your star systems for Its creation

The, shall we say, laws or physical ways of this creation will remain, therefore, constant.

Questioner: Then what you are saying is that the lenticular star system which we call a galaxy that we find ourselves in with approximately 250 billion other suns like our own was created by a single Logos. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Since there are many individualized portions of consciousness in this lenticular galaxy, did this Logos then subdivide into more individualization of consciousness to create these consciousnesses?

Ra: I am Ra. You are perceptive

This is also correct although an apparent paradox.

Questioner: Could you tell me what you mean by an apparent paradox?

Ra: I am Ra. It would seem that if one Logos creates the intelligent energy ways for a large system there would not be the necessity or possibility of the further sub-Logos differentiation. 

However, within limits, this is precisely the case, and it is perceptive that this has been seen.

Questioner: Thank you. 

I’ll call the lenticular galaxy that we are in the major galaxy just so we will not get mixed up in our terms. 

Does all the consciousness in individualized form that goes into what we are calling the major galaxy start out and go through all of the densities in order, one-two-three- four-five-six-seven and into the eighth, or are there some who start up higher in the rank so that there is always a mixture of intelligent consciousness in the galaxy?


Ra: I am Ra. The latter is more nearly correct

In each beginning 
there is the beginning from infinite strength
Free will acts as a catalyst
Beings begin to form the universes
Consciousness then begins to have the potential to experience

The potentials of experience are created as a part of intelligent energy and are fixed before experience begins.

However, there is always, due to free will acting infinitely upon the creation, a great variation in initial responses to intelligent energy’s potential

Thus almost immediately the foundations of the, shall we call it, hierarchical nature of beings begins to manifest as some portions of consciousness or awareness learn through experience in a much more efficient manner.

Questioner: Is there any reason for some portions being much more efficient in learning?

Ra: I am Ra. Is there any reason for some to learn more quickly than others?

Look, if you wish

to the function of the will … 
the, shall we say, attraction to the upward spiraling line of light.

Questioner: I am assuming that there are eight densities created when this major galaxy was created. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is basically correct

However, it is well to perceive that the eighth density functions also as the beginning density or first density, in its latter stages, of the next octave of densities.

Questioner: Are you saying then that there are an infinite number of octaves of densities one through eight?

Ra: I am Ra. We wish to establish that we are truly humble messengers of the Law of One

We can speak to you of our experiences and our understandings and teach/learn in limited ways

However, we cannot speak in firm knowledge of all the creations

We know only that they are infinite.

We assume an infinite number of octaves.

However, it has been impressed upon us by our own teachers that there is a mystery-clad unity of creation in which all consciousness periodically coalesces and again begins

Thus we can only say we assume an infinite progression though we understand it to be cyclical in nature and, as we have said, clad in mystery.

Questioner: Thank you. 

When this major galaxy is formed by the Logos, polarity then exists in a sense that we have electrical polarity. 


We do have electrical polarity existing at that time. Is that correct?

Ra: I am Ra. I accept this as correct with the stipulation that what you term electrical be understood as not only the one, Larson, stipulated its meaning but also in what you would call the metaphysical sense.

Questioner: Are you saying then that we have not only a polarity of electrical charge but also a polarity in consciousness at that time?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct

All is potentially available from the beginning of your physical space/time

it then being the function of consciousness complexes to begin to use the physical materials to gain experience to then polarize in a metaphysical sense

The potentials for this are not created by the experiencer but by intelligent energy.

This will be the last full question of this session due to our desire to foster this instrument as it slowly regains physical complex energy

May we ask if you have one or two questions we may answer shortly before we close?

Questioner: I am assuming that the process of creation, after the original creation of the major galaxy, is continued by the further individualization of the consciousness of the Logos so that there are many, many portions of the individualized consciousness creating further items for experience all over the galaxy

Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct, for within the, shall we say, guidelines or ways of the Logos, the sub-Logos may find various means of differentiating experiences without removing or adding to these ways.

The Law of One, Book II, Session 29

Questioner: Is it possible for you to give me an example of various planetary developments in what I would call a metaphysical sense having to do with the development of consciousness and its polarities throughout the galaxy? 

In other words I believe that some of these planets develop quite rapidly into higher density planets and some take longer times. 

Can you give me some idea of that development?

Ra: I am Ra. This will be the final full query of this session.

The particular Logos of your major galaxy has used a large portion of Its coalesced material to reflect the being-ness of the Creator

In this way there is much of your galactic system which does not have the progression of which you speak but dwells spiritually as a portion of the Logos

Of those entities upon which consciousness dwells there is, as you surmise, a variety of time/space periods during which the higher densities of experience are attained by consciousness.

Is there any short query further before we close?

The Law of One, Book II, Session 30

Questioner: Thank you. 

You stated yesterday that much of this major galactic system dwells spiritually as a part of the Logos. 


Do you mean that near the center of this major galactic system that the stars there do not have planetary systems? Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect

The Logos has distributed itself throughout your galactic system

However, the time/space continua of some of your more central sun systems are much further advanced.

Questioner: Well then, could you generally say that as you get closer to the center of this major system that there is a greater spiritual density or spiritual quality in that area?

Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full question of this session as this instrument is somewhat uncomfortable

We do not wish to deplete the instrument.

The spiritual density or mass of those more towards the center of your galaxy is known. 

However, this is due simply to the varying timelessness states during which the planetary spheres may coalesce, this process of space/time beginnings occurring earlier, shall we say, as you approach the center of the galactic spiral.

The Law of One, Book III, Session 71

Questioner: If an entity has chosen the negative polarization are the processes of healing and review similar for the negative path?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Are the processes that we are talking about processes that occur on many planets in our Milky Way Galaxy, or do they occur on all planets, or what percentage?

Ra: I am Ra. These processes occur upon all planets which have given birth to sub-Logoi such as yourselves. 

The percentage of inhabited planets is approximately 10%.

The Law of One, Book IV, Session 78

Questioner: Why do the densities have the qualities that they have? 

You have named the densities with respect to their qualities, the next density being that of love and so on. 

Can you tell me why these qualities exist in that form? 

Is it possible to answer that question?


Ra: I am Ra. It is possible.

Questioner: Will you please answer that?

Ra: I am Ra. The nature of the vibratory range peculiar to each quantum of the octave is such that the characteristics of it may be described with the same certainty with which you perceive a color with your optical apparatus if it is functioning properly.

Questioner: So the original evolution then was planned by the Logos but the first distortion was not extended to the product. 

At some point this first distortion was extended and the first service-to-self polarity emerged. 

Is this correct and if so, could you tell me the history of this process of emergence?

Ra: I am Ra. As proem let me state that the Logoi always conceived of themselves as offering free will to the sub-Logoi in their care. 

The sub-Logoi had freedom to experience and experiment with consciousness, the experiences of the body, and the illumination of the spirit

That having been said, we shall speak to the point of your query.

The first Logos to instill what you now see as free will, in the full sense, in its sub-Logoi came to this creation due to contemplation in depth of the concepts or possibilities of conceptualizations of what we have called the significators

The Logos posited the possibility of the mind, the body, and the spirit as being complex. 

In order for the significator to be what it is not, it then must be granted the free will of the Creator


This set in motion a quite lengthy, in your terms, series of Logos’s improving or distilling this seed thought. 

The key was the significator becoming a complex.

Questioner: Then our particular Logos, when it created Its own particular creation, was at some point far down the evolutionary spiral of the experiment with the significator becoming what it was not and, therefore, I am assuming, was primarily concerned in designing the archetypes in such a way that they would create the acceleration of this polarization. 

Is this in any way correct?


Ra: I am Ra. We would only comment briefly

It is generally correct

You may fruitfully view each Logos and its design as the Creator experiencing Itself

The seed concept of the significator being a complex introduces two things: 

firstly, the Creator against Creator 
in one sub-Logos in what you may call dynamic tension; 

secondly, the concept of free will
once having been made fuller by its extension into the sub-Logoi known as mind/body/spirit complexescreates and re-creates and continues to create as a function of its very nature

The Law of One, Book IV, Session 82

Questioner: I would like to consider the condition at a time or position just prior to the beginning of this octave of experience.

I am assuming that, just prior to the beginning of this octave, intelligent infinity had created and already experienced one or more previous octaves. Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. You assume correctly.

However, the phrase would more informatively read, infinite intelligence had experienced previous octaves.

Questioner: Does Ra have any knowledge of the number of previous octaves; if so, how many?

Ra: I am Ra. As far as we are aware we are in an infinite creation.

There is no counting.

Questioner: That’s what I thought you might say.

Am I correct in assuming that at the beginning of this octave, out of what I would call a void of space, seeds of an infinite number of galactic systems such as the Milky Way Galaxy appeared and grew in spiral fashion simultaneously?


Ra: I am Ra. There are duple areas of potential confusion.

Firstly, let us say that the basic concept is reasonably well-stated.

Now we address the confusions.

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’.

Questioner: Then, if I were observing the beginning of the octave at that time through a telescope, say from this position, would I see the center of many, many galaxies appearing and each of them then spreading outward in a spiraling fashion over what we would consider billions of years, but the spirals spreading outward in approximately what we would consider the same rate so that all these galaxies began as the first speck of light at the same time and then spread out at roughly the same rate?

Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. The query has confusing elements.

There is a center to infinity.

From this center all spreads
.

Therefore,

there are centers to the creation,
to the galaxies,
to star systems,
to planetary systems, and
to consciousness.

In each case you may see growth from the center outward

Thus you may see your query as being over-general in concept.

Questioner: Considering only our Milky Way Galaxy at its beginnings, I will assume that the first occurrence that we could find with our physical apparatus was the appearance of a star of the nature of our sun. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra.

In the case of the galactic systems
the first manifestation of the Logos is a cluster of central systems which generate the outward swirling energies producing, in their turn, further energy centers for the Logos or what you would call stars.

Questioner: Are these central original creations or clusters what we call stars?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

However, the closer to the, shall we say, beginning of the manifestation of the Logos the star is, the more it partakes in the one original thought.

Questioner: Why does this partaking in the original thought have a gradient radially outward?

That’s the way I understand your statement.


Ra: I am Ra. 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 willto 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.

The Creator does not properly create as much as It experiences Itself.

Percentage of Stars in the Universe With Planetary Systems

The Law of One, Book III, Session 71

Questioner: If an entity has chosen the negative polarization are the processes of healing and review similar for the negative path?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Are the processes that we are talking about processes that occur on many planets in our Milky Way Galaxy, or do they occur on all planets, or what percentage?

Ra: I am Ra. These processes occur upon all planets which have given birth to sub-Logoi such as yourselves. 

The percentage of inhabited planets is approximately 10%.

Questioner: What percentage of stars, roughly, have planetary systems?

Ra: I am Ra. This is unimportant information, but harmless.

Approximately 32% of stars
have planets as you know them
 while

another 6%
have some sort of clustering material which upon some densities might be inhabitable
.

Questioner: This would tell me that roughly 3% of all stars have inhabited planets.

This process of evolution is in effect throughout the known universe then. Is this correct?


RA; I am Ra. This octave of infinite knowledge of the one Creator is as it is throughout the One Infinite Creationwith variations programmed by sub- Logoi of what you call major galaxies and minor galaxies.

These variations are not significant but may be compared to various regions of geographical location sporting various ways of pronouncing the same sound vibration complex or concept.

The Root of Astrology

The Law of One, Book I, Session 19

Questioner: Is this then the root of what we call astrology?

Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full question of this session.

The root of astrology, as you speak it, is one way of perceiving the primal distortions which may be predicted along probability/possibility lines given, shall we say, cosmic orientations and configurations at the time of the entrance into the physical/mental complex of the spirit and at the time of the physical/mental/spiritual complex into the illusion.

This then has the possibility of suggesting basic areas of distortion.

There is no more than this.

The part astrology plays is likened unto that of one root among many.

A 'Metaphysical Galactic Clock' or Intelligent Energy That Moves The Universe

The Law of One, Book I, Session 9 

Questioner: The way that I understand the process of evolution is that our planetary population has a certain amount of time to progress. 

This is generally divided into three 25,000-year cycles.

At the end of 75,000 years the planet progresses itself. 

What caused this situation to come about with the preciseness of the years in each cycle?


Ra: I am Ra. Visualize, if you will, the particular energy which, outward flowing and inward coagulating, formed the tiny realm of the creation governed by your Council of Saturn

Continue seeing the rhythm of this process. 

The living flow creates a rhythm which is as inevitable as one of your timepieces. 

Each of your planetary entities began the first cycle when the energy nexus was able in that environment to support such mind/body experiences

Thus, each of your planetary entities is on a different cyclical schedule as you might call it

The timing of these cycles is a measurement equal to a portion of intelligent energy.

This intelligent energy offers a type of clock. 

The cycles move as precisely as a clock strikes your hour. 

Thus, the gateway from intelligent energy to intelligent infinity opens regardless of circumstance on the striking of the hour.

The Law of One, Book II, Session 28

Questioner: I am assuming that there are eight densities created when this major galaxy was created. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is basically correct

However, it is well to perceive that the eighth density functions also as the beginning density or first density, in its latter stages, of the next octave of densities.

Questioner: Are you saying then that there are an infinite number of octaves of densities one through eight?

Ra: I am Ra. We wish to establish that we are truly humble messengers of the Law of One

We can speak to you of our experiences and our understandings and teach/learn in limited ways

However, we cannot speak in firm knowledge of all the creations

We know only that they are infinite.

We assume an infinite number of octaves.

However, it has been impressed upon us by our own teachers that there is a mystery-clad unity of creation in which all consciousness periodically coalesces and again begins

Thus we can only say we assume an infinite progression though we understand it to be cyclical in nature and, as we have said, clad in mystery.

The Law of One, Book III, Session 63

Questioner: I will make this statement and have you correct me. 

What we have is, as our planet is spiraled by the spiraling action of the entire major galaxy and our planetary system spirals into the new position, the fourth-density vibrations becoming more and more pronounced. 

These atomic core vibrations begin to create, more and more completely, the fourth-density sphere and the fourth-density bodily complexes for inhabitation of that sphere. 

Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. This is partially correct. 

To be corrected is the concept of the creation of green-ray density bodily complexes.

This creation will be gradual and will take place beginning with your third-density type of physical vehicle and, through the means of bisexual reproduction, become by evolutionary processes, the fourth-density body complexes.

Questioner: Is there a clock-like face, shall I say, associated with the entire major galaxy so that as it revolves it carries all of these stars and planetary systems through transitions from density to density?

Is this how it works?


Ra: I am Ra. You are perceptive.

You may see a three-dimensional clock face or spiral of endlessness which is planned by the Logos for this purpose.

Our Milky Way Galaxy: Its Application of The Law Of One, Its Octaves, Densities and Planets Therein

The Law of One, Book I, Session 16

Questioner: I was wondering how many inhabited planets there are in our galaxy and if they all reach higher density by the Law of One?

It doesn’t seem that there would be any other way to reach higher density? Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. Please restate your query.

Questioner: How many inhabited planets are there in our galaxy?

Ra: I am Ra. We are assuming that you intend all dimensions of consciousness or densities of awareness in this question.

Approximately one-fifth of all planetary entities contain awareness of one or more densities

Some planets are hospitable only for certain densities.

Your planet, for instance,
is at this time hospitable for densities one, two, three, and four.

Questioner: Roughly how many total planets in this galaxy of stars that we are in are aware regardless of density?

Ra: I am Ra. Approximately 67 million.

Questioner: Can you tell me what percentage of those are third, fourth, fifth, sixth etc., density?

Ra: I am Ra.

A percentage seventeen for first density,
a percentage twenty for second density,
a percentage twenty-seven for third density,
a percentage sixteen for fourth density,
a percentage six for fifth density.

The other information must be withheld.

Questioner: Of these first five densities, have all of the planets progressed from the third density by knowledge and application of the Law of One?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Then the only way for a planet to get out of the situation that we are in is for the population to become aware of and start practicing the Law of One. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Can you tell me what percentage of the third-, fourth-, and fifth-density planets which you have spoken of here are polarized negatively towards service to self?

Ra: I am Ra. This is not a query to which we may speak given the Law of Confusion.

We may say only that the negatively or self-service oriented planetary spheres are much fewer.

To give you exact numbers would not be appropriate.

Questioner: I would like to make an analogy as to why there are fewer negatively oriented, and then 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 for the good of all to move the boulder; therefore, it is much easier to get things done to create the service to others principle and to grow in positively oriented communities than in negatively oriented communities.

Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Can you tell me if the progression of life in other galaxies is similar to the progression of life in our galaxy?

Ra: I am Ra. The progression is somewhat close to the same, asymptotically approaching congruency throughout infinity.

The free choosing of what you would call galactic systems causes variations of an extremely minor nature from one of your galaxies to another.

Questioner: Then the Law of One is truly universal in creating a progression towards the eighth density in all galaxies. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

There are infinite forms, infinite understandings, but the progression is one.

Questioner: I am assuming that it is not necessary for an individual to understand the Law of One to go from the third to the fourth density. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. It is absolutely necessary that an entity consciously realize it does not understand in order for it to be harvestable.

Understanding is not of this density.

Questioner: That is a very important point.

I used the wrong word.

What I meant to say was that I believed that it was not necessary for an entity to be consciously aware of the Law of One to go from the third to the fourth density.


Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: At what point in the densities is it necessary for an entity to be consciously aware of the Law of One in order to progress?

Ra: I am Ra. The fifth density harvest is of those whose vibratory distortions consciously accept the honor/duty of the Law of One.

This responsibility/honor is the foundation of this vibration.

Questioner: Can you tell me a little more about this honor/responsibility concept?

Ra: I am Ra. Each responsibility is an honor; each honor, a responsibility.

The Law of One, Book II, Session 28

Questioner: Thank you.

Does a unit of consciousness, an individualized unit of consciousness, create a unit of the creation?

I will give an example.


One individualized consciousness creates one galaxy of stars, the type that has many millions of stars in it.

Does this happen?


Ra: I am Ra. This can happen.

The possibilities are infinite.

Thus a Logos may create what you call a star system or it may be the Logos creating billions of star systems.

This is the cause of the confusion in the term galaxy, for there are many different Logos entities or creations and we would call each, using your sound vibration complexes, a galaxy.

Questioner: Let’s take as an example the planet that we are on now and tell me how much of the creation was created by the same Logos that created this planet?

Ra: I am Ra. This planetary Logos is a strong Logos creating approximately 250 billion of your star systems for Its creation.

The, shall we say, laws or physical ways of this creation will remain, therefore, constant.

Questioner: Then what you are saying is that the lenticular star system which we call a galaxy that we find ourselves in with approximately 250 billion other suns like our own was created by a single Logos. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Since there are many individualized portions of consciousness in this lenticular galaxy, did this Logos then subdivide into more individualization of consciousness to create these consciousnesses?

Ra: I am Ra. You are perceptive.

This is also correct although an apparent paradox.

Questioner: Could you tell me what you mean by an apparent paradox?

Ra: I am Ra. It would seem that if one Logos creates the intelligent energy ways for a large system there would not be the necessity or possibility of the further sub-Logos differentiation.

However, within limits, this is precisely the case, and it is perceptive that this has been seen.

Questioner: Thank you.

I’ll call the lenticular galaxy that we are in the major galaxy just so we will not get mixed up in our terms.

Does all the consciousness in individualized form that goes into what we are calling the major galaxy start out and go through all of the densities in order, one-twothree- four-five-six-seven and into the eighth, or are there some who start up higher in the rank so that there is always a mixture of intelligent consciousness in the galaxy?


Ra: I am Ra. The latter is more nearly correct.

In each beginning
there is the beginning from infinite strength.
Free will acts as a catalyst.
Beings begin to form the universes.
Consciousness then begins to have the potential to experience.

The potentials of experience are created as a part of intelligent energy and are fixed before experience begins.

However, there is always, due to free will acting infinitely upon the creation, a great variation in initial responses to intelligent energy’s potential.

Thus almost immediately the foundations of the, shall we call it, hierarchical nature of beings begins to manifest as some portions of consciousness or awareness learn through experience in a much more efficient manner.

Questioner: Is there any reason for some portions being much more efficient in learning?

Ra: I am Ra. Is there any reason for some to learn more quickly than others?

Look, if you wish,

to the function of the will …
the, shall we say, attraction to the upward spiraling line of light.

Questioner: I am assuming that there are eight densities created when this major galaxy was created. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is basically correct.

However, it is well to perceive that the eighth density functions also as the beginning density or first density, in its latter stages, of the next octave of densities.

We can speak to you of our experiences and our understandings and teach/learn in limited ways.

However, we cannot speak in firm knowledge of all the creations.

We know only that they are infinite.

We assume an infinite number of octaves.

However, it has been impressed upon us by our own teachers that there is a mystery-clad unity of creation in which all consciousness periodically coalesces and again begins.

Thus we can only say we assume an infinite progression though we understand it to be cyclical in nature and, as we have said, clad in mystery.

Questioner: Thank you.

When this major galaxy is formed by the Logos, polarity then exists in a sense that we have electrical polarity.


We do have electrical polarity existing at that time. Is that correct?

Ra: I am Ra. I accept this as correct with the stipulation that what you term electrical be understood as not only the one, Larson, stipulated its meaning but also in what you would call the metaphysical sense.

Questioner: Are you saying then that we have not only a polarity of electrical charge but also a polarity in consciousness at that time?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

All is potentially available from the beginning of your physical space/time;

it then being the function of consciousness complexes to begin to use the physical materials to gain experience to then polarize in a metaphysical sense.

The potentials for this are not created by the experiencer but by intelligent energy.

This will be the last full question of this session due to our desire to foster this instrument as it slowly regains physical complex energy.

May we ask if you have one or two questions we may answer shortly before we close?

Questioner: I am assuming that the process of creation, after the original creation of the major galaxy, is continued by the further individualization of the consciousness of the Logos so that there are many, many portions of the individualized consciousness creating further items for experience all over the galaxy.

Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct, for within the, shall we say, guidelines or ways of the Logos, the sub-Logos may find various means of differentiating experiences without removing or adding to these ways.

The Law of One, Book II, Session 29

Questioner: Is it possible for you to give me an example of various planetary developments in what I would call a metaphysical sense having to do with the development of consciousness and its polarities throughout the galaxy?

In other words I believe that some of these planets develop quite rapidly into higher density planets and some take longer times.

Can you give me some idea of that development?

Ra: I am Ra. This will be the final full query of this session.

The particular Logos of your major galaxy has used a large portion of Its coalesced material to reflect the being-ness of the Creator.

In this way there is much of your galactic system which does not have the progression of which you speak but dwells spiritually as a portion of the Logos.

Of those entities upon which consciousness dwells there is, as you surmise, a variety of time/space periods during which the higher densities of experience are attained by consciousness.

Is there any short query further before we close?

The Law of One, Book II, Session 30

Questioner: Thank you. 

You stated yesterday that much of this major galactic system dwells spiritually as a part of the Logos. 


Do you mean that near the center of this major galactic system that the stars there do not have planetary systems? Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect

The Logos has distributed itself throughout your galactic system

However, the time/space continua of some of your more central sun systems are much further advanced.

Questioner: Well then, could you generally say that as you get closer to the center of this major system that there is a greater spiritual density or spiritual quality in that area?

Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full question of this session as this instrument is somewhat uncomfortable

We do not wish to deplete the instrument.

The spiritual density or mass of those more towards the center of your galaxy is known. 

However, this is due simply to the varying timelessness states during which the planetary spheres may coalesce, this process of space/time beginnings occurring earlier, shall we say, as you approach the center of the galactic spiral.

The Law of One, Book III, Session 71

Questioner: If an entity has chosen the negative polarization are the processes of healing and review similar for the negative path?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Are the processes that we are talking about processes that occur on many planets in our Milky Way Galaxy, or do they occur on all planets, or what percentage?

Ra: I am Ra. These processes occur upon all planets which have given birth to sub-Logoi such as yourselves. 

The percentage of inhabited planets is approximately 10%.

The Law of One, Book IV, Session 78

Questioner: Why do the densities have the qualities that they have? 

You have named the densities with respect to their qualities, the next density being that of love and so on. 

Can you tell me why these qualities exist in that form? 

Is it possible to answer that question?


Ra: I am Ra. It is possible.

Questioner: Will you please answer that?

Ra: I am Ra. The nature of the vibratory range peculiar to each quantum of the octave is such that the characteristics of it may be described with the same certainty with which you perceive a color with your optical apparatus if it is functioning properly.

Questioner: So the original evolution then was planned by the Logos but the first distortion was not extended to the product. 

At some point this first distortion was extended and the first service-to-self polarity emerged. 

Is this correct and if so, could you tell me the history of this process of emergence?

Ra: I am Ra. As proem let me state that the Logoi always conceived of themselves as offering free will to the sub-Logoi in their care. 

The sub-Logoi had freedom to experience and experiment with consciousness, the experiences of the body, and the illumination of the spirit

That having been said, we shall speak to the point of your query.

The first Logos to instill what you now see as free will, in the full sense, in its sub-Logoi came to this creation due to contemplation in depth of the concepts or possibilities of conceptualizations of what we have called the significators

The Logos posited the possibility of the mind, the body, and the spirit as being complex. 

In order for the significator to be what it is not, it then must be granted the free will of the Creator


This set in motion a quite lengthy, in your terms, series of Logos’s improving or distilling this seed thought. 

The key was the significator becoming a complex.

Questioner: Then our particular Logos, when it created Its own particular creation, was at some point far down the evolutionary spiral of the experiment with the significator becoming what it was not and, therefore, I am assuming, was primarily concerned in designing the archetypes in such a way that they would create the acceleration of this polarization. 

Is this in any way correct?


Ra: I am Ra. We would only comment briefly

It is generally correct

You may fruitfully view each Logos and its design as the Creator experiencing Itself

The seed concept of the significator being a complex introduces two things: 

firstly, the Creator against Creator 
in one sub-Logos in what you may call dynamic tension; 

secondly, the concept of free will
once having been made fuller by its extension into the sub-Logoi known as mind/body/spirit complexescreates and re-creates and continues to create as a function of its very nature.
 
The Law of One, Book IV, Session 81

Questioner: We presently find ourselves in the Milky Way Galaxy of some 200 or so billion stars and there are millions and millions of these large galaxies spread out through what we call space. 

To Ra’s knowledge, can I assume that the number of these galaxies is infinite? Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct and is a significant point.

Questioner: The point being that we have unity. Is that correct?

Ra: I am Ra. You are perceptive.

Questioner: Thank you. 

In this line of questioning I am trying to establish a basis for understanding the foundation for not only the experience that we have now but how the experience was formed and how it is related to all the rest of the experience through the portion of the octave as we understand it.


I am assuming, then, that all of these galaxies, this infinite number of galaxies that we can just begin to become aware of with our telescopes, are all of the same octave. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: I was wondering if some of the Wanderers from Ra in going to some of the other major galaxies, that is, leaving this system of some 200 billion stars of lenticular shape and going to another cluster of billions of stars and finding their way into some planetary situation there, would encounter the dual polarity that we have here, the service-to-self and the service-to-others polarities?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: From this I will assume that from the beginning of the octave we had the core of many galactic spirals forming, and I know that this is incorrect in the sense of timelessness, but as the spiral formed then I am assuming that in this particular octave the experiment of the veiling and the extending of free will must have started, roughly, simultaneously in many, many of the budding or building galactic systems

Am I in any way correct with this assumption?

Ra: I am Ra. You are precisely correct

This instrument is unusually fragile at this space/time and has used much of the transferred energy

We would invite one more full query for this working.

Questioner: Actually, I don’t have much more on this except to make the assumption that there must have been some type of communication throughout the octave so that, when the first experiment became effective, knowledge of this spread rapidly through the octave and was picked up by other budding galactic spirals, you might say. 

Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. This is correct

To be aware of the nature of this communication is to be aware of the nature of the Logos

Much of what you call creation has never separated from the One Logos of this octave and resides within the one infinite Creator

Communication in such an environment is the communication of cells of the body

That which is learned by one is known to all

The sub-Logoi, then, have been in the position of refining the discoveries of what might be called the earlier sub- Logoi

May we ask if we may answer any brief queries at this working?

The Law of One, Book IV, Session 82

Questioner: I would like to consider the condition at a time or position just prior to the beginning of this octave of experience. 

I am assuming that, just prior to the beginning of this octave, intelligent infinity had created and already experienced one or more previous octaves. Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. You assume correctly

However, the phrase would more informatively read, infinite intelligence had experienced previous octaves.

Questioner: Does Ra have any knowledge of the number of previous octaves; if so, how many?

Ra: I am Ra. As far as we are aware we are in an infinite creation

There is no counting.

Questioner: That’s what I thought you might say. 

Am I correct in assuming that at the beginning of this octave, out of what I would call a void of space, seeds of an infinite number of galactic systems such as the Milky Way Galaxy appeared and grew in spiral fashion simultaneously?


Ra: I am Ra. There are duple areas of potential confusion

Firstly, let us say that the basic concept is reasonably well-stated. 

Now we address the confusions

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’.

Questioner: Then, if I were observing the beginning of the octave at that time through a telescope, say from this position, would I see the center of many, many galaxies appearing and each of them then spreading outward in a spiraling fashion over what we would consider billions of years, but the spirals spreading outward in approximately what we would consider the same rate so that all these galaxies began as the first speck of light at the same time and then spread out at roughly the same rate? 

Is this correct?


Ra: I am Ra. The query has confusing elements

There is a center to infinity. 

From this center all spreads


Therefore, 

there are centers to the creation
to the galaxies, 
to star systems, 
to planetary systems, and 
to consciousness. 

In each case you may see growth from the center outward

Thus you may see your query as being over-general in concept.

Questioner: Considering only our Milky Way Galaxy at its beginnings, I will assume that the first occurrence that we could find with our physical apparatus was the appearance of a star of the nature of our sun. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. 

In the case of the galactic systems 
the first manifestation of the Logos is a cluster of central systems which generate the outward swirling energies producing, in their turn, further energy centers for the Logos or what you would call stars.

Questioner: Are these central original creations or clusters what we call stars?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct

However, the closer to the, shall we say, beginning of the manifestation of the Logos the star is, the more it partakes in the one original thought.

Questioner: Why does this partaking in the original thought have a gradient radially outward? 

That’s the way I understand your statement.


Ra: I am Ra. 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 willto 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

The Creator does not properly create as much as It experiences Itself.

Questioner: What was the form, condition, or experience of the first division of consciousness that occurred at the beginning of this octave at the beginning of this galactic experience?

Ra: I am Ra. We touch upon previous material.

The harvest of the previous octave, was the Creator of Love manifested in mind, body, and spirit.

This form of the Creator experiencing Itself may perhaps be said to be the first division.
