(Doug Esse) To live as a Christian is to become living ankhs. It is a lifestyle of one who desires to intentionally embody the Law of One in our present incarnation.

Abstract: This long article attempts to bridge the “apparent” gap between the metaphysics of Christianity and the Law of One material. For this author, the Law of One material is the clearest presentation of the Perennial Philosophy which undergirds all of the world’s major religions. Through the Jesus Event, the fullness of the Logos organically sprouts up and out of the soil of third density Earth, our current collective bandwidth of conscious awareness, to reveal the One Infinite Creator’s very nature: Oneness emanating as Love in order to self-manifest in an eternal act of creating so that Infinity can experience Itself/Godself in infinite variety. It is a benevolent universe and Love is the God-glue that holds it all together. The Infinite Creator is a Trinity–a union, or “complex,”–of three aspects whose nature is imprinted in every created thing. Those three aspects are the spirit, the mind, and the body and can be found from the macro level to the micro. In Jesus, the Infinite Creator was given a face and a heart so that humanity could fall in love with a person and be transformed in and through relationship. Jesus became the visible icon of the invisible God. Through Jesus’ life, his acts of healing and forgiving, his crucifixion, and his resurrection, everything was revealed for all to see: 1) God is merciful and loving, 2) separation from God is an illusion, 3) Jesus put an exclamation point on the fact that God incarnates as the material universe, 4) all things die and rise in transformed forms–this is the secret of how the Creator perpetually creates, 5) relationships and forming ecclesias are essential to activating the heart so that, 6) we can be ready to inherit the new earth, the kingdom of God, the New Jerusalem, which are Biblical terms for the fourth density bandwidth of conscious awareness. The Ra group, other members of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator, the angelics, the demonics, and negative factions such as the “Orion Empire” are all players in the theater of the octave of conscious awareness. Everything belongs. Christianity is not so much a religion to join but rather, 1) it is a way of seeing and living in the world that underscores the unity of all things held together within the One Infinite Creator, and 2) it is a call to action to build the new earth–that fourth density condition–through serving the Logos, “Christ,” in other people and in our world.
________________
The following is my attempt at synthesizing my Christian background with many aspects of the Law of One metaphysics. I’m updating an article that has been my most widely read blog post over the years. The first edition of this article was written in 2015. Since then, I have refined my thinking and I hope I see things a little more clearly. I pull from several sources including: the Bible, my Christian background, my masters degrees in clinical social work (2004) and in pastoral ministry (2004), Richard Rohr, OFM, Rev. Dr. Cynthia Bourgeault, Dr. Ilia Delio, OSF, Karl Rahner, SJ, Peirre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ, Diarmuid O’Murchu, SHM, the Law of One material, Q’uo, Edgar Cayce, Dr. Michael Newton, Thomas Merton, Dolores Cannon, Daskalos and the Researchers of Truth, Ken Wilber, and Dr. Scott Mandelker.
My writing style is circular. I share this because I often revisit the various themes presented here a few times in different ways. Don’t worry if you don’t get my point the first time, it will likely resurface later. I am honored that you would read these words and may they help affirm whatever journey you are on. I bow to you, my sisters and brothers, and say thank you for your presence on Earth at this time to do the work you are doing. We are all a part of the great body of Christ, the Logos, and as such, each of us is precious beyond price. We are the divine having an experience of being you and me. Our mission is to be instruments of Christ’s peace, joy, love, mercy, and forgiveness so that we can embrace the Kingdom of God within us and co-create the Kingdom of God around us.
Introduction: Why Is This Important?
I know that every writer believes what they write is important, why else would they write and want it read? But as arrogant as this sounds, I really do feel that this material which I’ll cover here is super important for our times. Why? Because humanity is right now on the brink of a new mode of consciousness where a new mind and heart will be required to fully participate and enjoy the love that is ushering in.
Worldwide, there are over two billion Christians with various interpretations of the Jesus Event. I hope that my contribution here will be a bridge of sorts between conventional interpretations and a larger cosmic reality that is now unfolding. I’m not endeavoring to throw out any babies here, but I do hope to clean some of the bathwater.
Karl Rahner, one of the most influential theologians of the twentieth century, said that if Christianity doesn’t move to the mystic level, it will cease to exist. What does this mean? The mystic level that Rahner is suggesting, in my opinion, is one that preferences personal experience of the divine over theologies and doctrinal precision. The latter two are not unimportant, but quite secondary to unitive consciousness with God that the mystic enjoys. If theology or a metaphysics doesn’t lead to unitive consciousness, then it may well be the problem getting in the way.
Similarly, Richard Rohr, an internationally renown speaker on nondual Christianity, suggests that Christianity must see how all is One and comes from the One, or it will loose its relevance [1]. His very public ministry over the past 45 years seems to have focused on helping Christians understand that Christianity was always meant to help people see how all are one, that all things are one, that creation is God’s very Body, and that Jesus is a visible icon of the hidden God who shows humanity how to live a life grounded in the very flow of the Holy Spirit.
I write this article for three primary reasons:
- Humanity is poised on the cusp of a new chapter in our collective consciousness and many things that have remained hidden and many things that have remained latent are bubbling up to the surface. In short, the veil of the illusion of separation between us and God and between us and each other is thinning rapidly. Even now, disclosure of those hidden things is happening on the macro scale and micro scale, for those with the eyes to see it.
- Many from the Christian background or other religions are awakening into wider things and finding resonance with other spiritualities. Often with this kind of awakening, one can experience a mixture of anxiety and ecstasy as they try to navigate what is true out there in the great ocean of metaphysics presented on the internet. It can be very confusing. This article hopes to assuage fears and show that something like the Law of One metaphysics and mystical Christianity are quite congruent. I admit I hold the Law of One material’s metaphysics as the standard against which I compare other metaphysical presentations. I also acknowledge, however, that the appeal of this article and my blog will resonate only with a few. That venn diagram between people who are knowledge about both Christianity and the Law of One is small.
- This article could be shared with friends and loved ones who may need or want an offering such as this which attempts to connect the dots. As you read this article, please keep in mind anyone you know who would find this article illuminating. I recommend the reader take their time as they process what is written here, and come back often.
I assert that Christianity has a place in the great collective unveiling not because Christianity is a religion to join but rather because, as Franciscan priest, Richard Rohr, comments, “It is a lifestyle–a way of being in the world that is simple, non-violent, shared, and loving.” Moreover, Christianity is a statement of reality that was always meant to throw out the dirty bathwater of distorted belief systems while honoring the babies–the pearls of great price–at the heart of all of them. I realize that is quite an audacious opinion, but I hope that this article shows that Christianity was never meant to be an exclusionary belief system but rather a great revealing: an apocalypse of the what the Infinite Creator has been up to all along, and just how intimate God really is with the unfolding of our evolution, both on the personal and the cosmic levels. And finally, that intimacy is actually the key ingredient to living out the Christian life–or the Law of One life, for that matter. To underscore this point, the source of the Law of One material found the concept of “close encounters” humorous because, “…in a universe of unending unity …are not all encounters of a nature of self with self? Therefore, how can any encounter be less than very, very close?” (session 53.9)
Book The Children of The Law of One & The Lost Teachings of Atlantis
I therefore do not intend to mean that other religions or spiritualities are in any way less meaningful. The Law of One material states clearly in session 60.18 that each of humanity’s orthodox religious systems which have all become somewhat mixed in orientation, offer a pure path to the One Creator which is seen by the pure seeker. Whatever a person or a people does to activate their hearts, to see God everywhere, and to serve others in humility and love is all that matters.
Ironically, it was my encounter with the Law of One material that helped me to affirm my Christian vocation in new and very unexpected ways. As we will see below, our Earth is in the process of a great shifting from a particular bandwidth of consciousness characterized by a veil of forgetting that all things are parts of One Being to a new one. The new bandwidth of consciousness, which is called in the Bible, the “New Jerusalem,” will be a plane that is much denser and full of life; a plane where one is aware of the thoughts of others; a plane where one is aware of the energy of others; a plane of compassion and understanding; a plane wherein individual differences are pronounced although automatically harmonized by group consensus [2].
However, the shift into this new denser plane of consciousness will not be easy or automatic. Therefore, there are some of us who are awakening and uncovering that a very important part of our vocation is to help build bridges that can help navigate the Great Shifting. It is to this end that I write my blog in general, and this article in particular. I invite you, the reader, to keep an open mind. For those who are Christian and have not heard of the Law of One before, you are most welcome here. I will not say anywhere in this post that Ra, the source of the Law of One material is to be worshiped or followed. They are more like an archangel who gave a message. In fact, isn’t that what an “angel” is? Isn’t the definition of an angel a spiritual being who acts as a messenger of the divine? Yes. The Ra group that gave us the Law of One material is a humble
messenger of the Law of One and they have been involved with Earth’s humanity for thousands of years. In fact, it may well be that what humanity has known as the archangel Rafael is actually Ra, as in Ra-Fa-El. Those are syllables that hold metaphysical meaning and power and beings at the level of the Ra group do not use names as we do. Names are not needed. However, if names are requested by humanity, they give the pronunciations of their own energy signatures [3].
For those who are Law of One students and are highly suspicious of Christianity, and all religions, for that matter, please keep an open mind, too. You might be surprised that mystical Christianity and the Law of One are saying the same thing. Yes, it is true that unfortunate distortions have made their way into all religions. I view the Law of One material akin to a magnifying glass that can be used to comb through the Christian belief system and find the perennial philosophy undergirding the whole thing. For me, the Law of One material is a clearer version of the perennial philosophy without the historical-cultural overlay of a peoples who lived thousands of years ago. Yet, get ready… I assert that Ra couldn’t see all. The Logos is up to something that “even angels [like the Ra group] long to look into…” (1Peter 1:12).
For me, the Law of One material helps to clarify Christianity and Christianity can help guide people to live out the Law of One in a rooted way that can change the world. If the term, “Christianity” brings up too much baggage for the reader, and for some of you this would be true, perhaps read that term as in “Logos-ity.” You’ll see what I mean below, but the Logos, Itself, broke into Earth’s third density and created something new.
So, let’s begin. Now, what is the Law of One material that has helped not only me but many thousands of people find clarity and emotional resonance at deep levels?
The Law of One Material
The Law of One material is a channeled text received between 1980 and 1984. It took a triad of loving friends whose harmonious relationship allowed for the tuning necessary to bring in the transmission. Within this group who called themselves L/L Research, the “instrument” who mouthed the Ra’s words in an unconscious trance state was named Carla, the “questioner” who shaped the dialog of the material was Don Elkins, and the “scribe” was Jim McCarty who not only transcribed the sessions into writing but also was key in providing love and light during the sessions through meditation. Without all three of this group, the transmission from the Ra group to Earth’s humanity in such a concise format would not have been possible.
In the book, Tilting at Windmills: An Interview with Carla L. Rueckert and Jim McCarty (L/L Research: 2016), Carla recounts the first time she “heard” the Ra group knocking at her mind’s door and wanted to connect while she was teaching some channeling techniques to a student and was in a conscious trance state. She writes:
_______________
I was about halfway through the session when there was a very powerful sort of knock-knock-knock on my inner door. I said, “Is there a spirit that wants to work through me?”
I kept getting, “I am Ra.” I’m thinking, “I don’t want to talk to a Ra,” because the only Ra I knew was from mythology. Egyptian mythology, and it was a fairly negatively orientated entity–it was a god of war, Horus the hawk-headed god and all that, not something I wanted to encourage. So I challenged with every ounce of energy in my little body, and I kept saying, “Do you come in the name of Jesus the Christ?”
They were indignant. It was like, “Do you think that you’re the only people that have Jesus? Do you think you’re the only planet that has Jesus? Come on–of course we come in the name of Jesus the Christ. Of course. What else is there when you’re talking about love? We come in the name of Jesus Christ, no problem. Get on with it, girl!”
I challenged three times and they were very strongly affirmative: “Yes, of course we come in the name of Jesus the Christ. We come in the name of love.” I thought, “I can’t go wrong with that,” so I said okay.
______________
Carla then shares that she somehow went into a deep sleep and did not remember saying anything else. Yet when she awoke, she was astonished to find a large transmission. I feel that it is important to include the first session here in this article. I will redact some parts of it for sake of brevity and clarity. Please feel free to read the whole piece for yourself here.

1.0
Ra: I am Ra. I have not spoken through this instrument [Doug: Carla] before. We had to wait until she was precisely tuned, as we send a narrow-band vibration. We greet you in the love and in the light of our Infinite Creator.
We have watched your group. We have been called to your group, for you have a need for the diversity of experiences in channeling which go with a more intensive, or as you might call it, advanced approach to the system of studying the patterns of the illusions of your body, your mind, and your spirit, which you call seeking the truth. We hope to offer you a somewhat different slant upon the information which is always and ever the same [Doug: the Perennial Philosophy].
The Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator has only one important statement. That statement, my friends, as you know, is “All things, all of life, all of the creation is part of one original thought.” [Doug: Christian theologian, Richard Rohr, OFM, has consistently said publicly that “Christ” was God’s first idea. “Christ,” as we will see below in much greater detail, is the “Cosmic Christ,” the Logos, featured in John 1:1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Through Christ, all things were made.” In my opinion, Ra is saying the same thing here. The “One Original Thought” is this same “Cosmic Christ.”]
The reception of our beam is a somewhat more advanced feat than some of the more broad vibration channels opened by other members for more introductory and intermediate work.
Let us for a moment consider thought. What is it, my friends, to take thought? Took you then thought today? What thoughts did you think today? What thoughts were part of the original thought today? [Doug: In other words, what thoughts did you and I have that were congruent with the Original Thought, namely, that all things are one in the One Creator; that “Christ is All and in All,” as Paul says in Colossians 3:11].
In how many of your thoughts did the creation abide? Was love contained? And was service freely given? You are not part of a material universe. You are part of a thought. You are dancing in a ballroom in which there is no material. You are dancing thoughts. [Doug: Quantum physics is saying that at the most elemental levels, all materiality is really energy in congealed forms. We are vibrations of consciousness. Does this notion seem strange? Christians are told that we are always held in the mind of God. Why can’t the vibrations of consciousness be God’s own thoughts, God’s own self-expression as the material universe?] You move your body, your mind, and your spirit in somewhat eccentric patterns for you have not completely grasped the concept that you are part of the original thought.
Book Sir Francis Bacon: The New Atlantis
At this time we would be glad to attempt to speak to any subject or question which those entities in the room may have potential use in the requesting.
1.1Questioner [Doug: Don Elkins]: It seems members of the Confederation have a specific purpose. Is this true with you, and if so, what is your purpose?
Ra: I am Ra. We communicate now. We, too, have our place. We are not those of the Love [Doug: 4th dimension or density] or of the Light [Doug: 5th dimension or density] . We are those who are of the Law of One [Doug: 6th dimension or density. Note: Earth’s humanity is 3rd experiences the 3rd dimension or density. We will explore the meaning of all of this below] . In our vibration the polarities are harmonized, the complexities are simplified, and the paradoxes have their solution. We are one. That is our nature and our purpose.
We are old upon your planet and have served with varying degrees of success in transmitting the Law of One, of Unity, of Singleness to your peoples. We have walked your earth. We have seen the faces of your peoples. This is not so with many of the entities of the Confederation. We found it was not efficacious. However, we then felt the great responsibility of staying in the capacity of removing the distortions and powers that had been given to the Law of One. We will continue in this until your, shall we say, cycle is appropriately ended. If not this one, then the next. We are not a part of time and, thus, are able to be with you in any of your times.
Does this give you enough information from which to extract our purpose, my brother?
1.2 Questioner: Yes, it does. Thank you.
Ra: We appreciate your vibration [Doug: The Ra group perceives energy. They could see that Don’s energy was welcoming of their information and that he understood what was being received. Probably, the members of the Ra group were giving each other high fives that this mode of communication might actually work]. Is there another query?
1.3 Questioner: I’ve heard of the name “Ra” in connection with the Egyptians. Are you connected with that Ra in any way?
Ra: I am Ra. Yes, the connection is congruency. May we elucidate?
Ra: What do you not understand?
1.5 Questioner: Could you give me a little more detail about your role with the Egyptians?
Ra: I am Ra. The identity of the vibration Ra is our identity. We as a group, or what you would call a social memory complex [Doug: A social memory complex is a society that is totally unified in mind and heart. Famous psychiatrist, Carl Jung, spoke about the “collective unconscious” of humanity. A social memory complex would be akin to a “collective consciousness.”] made contact with a race of your planetary kind which you call Egyptians. Others from our density [Doug: 6th density level–>very advanced consciousness!] made contact at the same time in South America, and the so-called “lost cities” were their attempts to contribute to the Law of One.
We spoke to one who heard and understood and was in a position to decree the Law of One. However, the priests and peoples of that era quickly distorted our message, robbing it of the, shall we say, compassion with which unity is informed by its very nature. Since it contains all, it cannot abhor any.
When we were no longer able to have appropriate channels through which to enunciate the Law of One, we removed ourselves from the now hypocritical position which we had allowed ourselves to be placed in. And other myths, shall we say, other understandings having more to do with polarity and the things of your vibrational complex, again took over in that particular society complex. Does this form a sufficient amount of information, or could we speak further?
Ra: Is there another query?
1.7 Questioner: [The question was lost because the questioner was sitting too far from the tape recorder to be recorded.]
Ra: I am Ra. Consider, if you will, that the universe is infinite. This has yet to be proven or disproven, but we can assure you that there is no end to your selves, your understanding, what you would call your journey of seeking, or your perceptions of the creation.
That which is infinite cannot be many, for many-ness is a finite concept. To have infinity you must identify or define that infinity as unity; otherwise, the term does not have any referent or meaning. In an Infinite Creator there is only unity.[Doug: In Mark’s Gospel 12:29-31, Jesus was asked which commandment was the most important. His response is actually the whole of the Law of One material contained in three simple statements:
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”]
[Ra continues] You have seen simple examples of unity. You have seen the prism which shows all colors stemming from the sunlight. This is a simplistic example of unity.
In truth there is no right or wrong. [Doug: this is true from the perspective of nonduality.] There is no polarity for all will be reconciled at some point in your dance through the mind-body-spirit-complex which you amuse yourself by distorting [Doug: distortion means nuance or hue or differentiation of One] in various ways at this time.
[Doug: “mind-body-spirit-complex” is Ra’s term for a person. Also, “all will be reconciled,” is perfectly symbolized in the outstretched arms of the crucified Christ. This imagery has inspired many artists over many hundreds of years who intuit that the Logos, through Jesus, showed humanity that all of reality is held together in his open-armed, open-hearted embrace. Jesus is often called the Great Reconciler because the Logos, through him, revealed that all of reality is “cruciform,” that is, all things belong, all paradoxes resolve, all things die–including our current level of conscious awareness–and rise in a transformed state which includes and transcends the “former.” This knowledge of the cycle of life is taught in most major religions but it was never before so clearly displayed on the world’s scene for all to see.]
This distortion is not in any case necessary. It is chosen by each of you as an alternative to understanding the complete unity of thought which binds all things. You are not speaking of similar or somewhat like entities or things. You are every thing, every being, every emotion, every event, every situation. You are unity. You are infinity. You are love/light, light/love. You are. This is the Law of One. [Doug: Is this statement shocking? If so, I invite you to consider how it could be otherwise? If Christ is all and in all, as Paul says, then there is no “one” else here. How can there be ontological differences between creator and creation? There simply can’t be if all is one. What differs between Creator and creation is not essence but gnosis (lived experiential knowledge) of that oneness.]
May we enunciate this law in more detail?
Ra: Is there another query at this time?
1.9 Questioner: Can you say anything about the coming planetary changes?
The changes are very, very trivial. We do not concern ourselves with the conditions which bring about harvest. [Doug: “Harvest” refers to the great shifting that is occurring now from one plane of consciousness to another. Much more on this below.]
1.10 Questioner: Another question. Is it possible to create any acceleration of understanding [in] other entities [or are] all efforts… efforts by the individual on himself accelerating his understanding? In other words, if an individual tries to act as a catalyst in general to increase the awareness of planetary consciousness, is he doing nothing but acting upon himself or is it possible [inaudible]?
Ra: I am Ra. We shall answer your question in two parts, both of which are important equally.
Firstly, you must understand that the distinction between yourself and others is not visible to us. We do not consider that a separation exists between the consciousness-raising efforts of the distortion which you project as a personality and the distortion which you project as an other personality [Doug: the Ra group is very advanced and can fully see what many human mystics intuit. We are all cells in a larger being]. Thus, to learn is the same as to teach unless you are not teaching what you are learning; in which case you have done you/they little or no good. This understanding should be pondered by your mind/body/spirit complex as it is a distortion which plays a part in your experiences at this nexus.
To turn to the second part of our response may we state our understanding, limited though it is.
Group-individuated consciousness is that state of sharing understanding with the other distortions of mind-body-spirit complexes, which are within the evident reach of the mind-body-spirit complex individual or group. Thus, we are speaking to you and accepting both our distortions and your own in order to enunciate the laws of creation, more especially the Law of One. We are not available to many of your peoples, for this is not an easily understood way of communication or type of philosophy. However, our very being is hopefully a poignant example of both the necessity and the near-hopelessness of attempting to teach.
Each of those in this group is striving to use, digest, and diversify the information which we are sending this instrument into the channels of the mind-body-spirit complex without distortion. The few whom you will illuminate by sharing your light are far more than enough reason for the greatest possible effort. To serve one is to serve all. Therefore, we offer the question back to you to state that indeed it is the only activity worth doing: to learn-teach or teach-learn. There is nothing else which is of aid in demonstrating the original thought except your very being, and the distortions that come from the unexplained, inarticulate, or mystery-clad being are many. Thus, to attempt to discern and weave your way through as many group mind-body-spirit distortions as possible among your peoples in the course of your teaching is a very good effort to make. We can speak no more valiantly of your desire to serve.
May we speak in any other capacity upon this subject?
1.11 Questioner: Will you be available for communication? Can we call on you in the future?
Ra: I am Ra. We have good contact with this instrument because of her recent experiences with trance. She is to be able to communicate our thoughts in your future. However, we advise care in disturbing the channel for a few moments and then the proper procedure for aiding an instrument who has, to some extent, the need of re-entering the mind-body-spirit complex which the instrument has chosen for the life experience of this time-space. Do you understand how to nurture this instrument?
1.12 Questioner: No. Could you explain it?
Ra: We suggest first a brief period of silence. Then the repetition of the instrument’s vibratory complex of sound in your density which you call name. Repeat until an answer is obtained. Then the laying on of the hands at the neck region for a brief period so that the instrument may recharge batteries which are not, shall we say, full of the essence of this particular field at this time. And finally, a gift of water into which the love of all present has been given. This will restore this entity, for her distortions contain great sensitivity towards the vibrations of love and the charged water will effect comfort. Do you now understand?
1.13 Questioner: Not completely.
Ra: I am Ra. We search your mind to find the vibration “Alrac.” [Doug: “Alrac” is Carla, backwards. It was Don’s nickname for Carla and was very endearing to both of them.] It is this vibration from you which contains the largest amount of what you would call love. Others would call this entity “Carla.” The charging of the water is done by those present placing their hands over the glass and visualizing the power of love entering the water. This will charge that very effective medium with those vibrations. [Doug: Note well that love counts. Blessings count. We may not see light and love with our physical eyes, but blessing others really makes a difference. Praying for others is very important.]
This instrument is, at this time, quite fatigued. However, her heart is such that she continues to remain open to us and useful as a channel. This is why we have spent the time explaining how the distortions of what you may call fatigue may be ameliorated.
Under no circumstances should this instrument be touched until she has responded to her name. I do not wish to take this instrument beyond her capacity for physical energy. It grows low. Therefore, I must leave this instrument. I leave you in the glory and peace of unity. Go forth in peace, rejoicing in the power of the One Creator. I am Ra.
[Doug: To my liturgy-loving ears, I relish the Ra group’s benediction at the end of each transmission. With their opening greeting of, “I am Ra. We greet you in the love and the light of One Infinite Creator,” they anchor in the energetic connection along an encrypted line. Likewise, the benediction, or closing, is also the Ra’s way of closing the energetic vortex between their dimension (6th density) and ours (3rd density).]

More On the Ra Group
The source of the Law of One material, a united society that is two billion years more advanced than Earth’s humanity, is named “Ra.” For our purposes, “Ra” is their name and is the humble messenger of the Law of One. But from their side of things, they explain that “Ra” is a vocal utterance whose vibration is that of their own nature, namely, the vibration of a particular spectrum of divine light. The ancient Egyptians saw the sun as a symbol of the light aspect of divinity and when this unified group , who understood themselves as light itself, viewed the congruence between their nature and the Egyptian’s understanding of divine light, they saw an opening to make themselves known. To say, “Ra,” is to pronounce a metaphysical frequency of divine light which is also the frequency of their sixth density of consciousness (session 23.6). As mentioned above, you’ll notice in the Law of One material that they always begin their responses with, “I am Ra.” This is a very important metaphysical energetic anchoring procedure on the part of the Ra group. When they pronounce their energetic signature, they are tethering their energy with the channeling team and then creating a tight funnel through which the communication takes place. As they repeatedly say throughout the material, their communication takes place on a narrow band. Perhaps a simple, albeit inadequate, analogy for us would be to see that the Ra group communicated to the L/L Research Group (the channeling team) through an encrypted line that would make it impossible for outside parties to hack it.
When I was first introduced to the Law of One Material in September, 2013, I was intrigued and inspired by the dialog between the channeling team and “the messenger” of the Law of One, Ra. I was not very familiar with channeled sources or channeling in general. I knew that A Course In Miracles was channeled but I had not delved into that material (although later I did and found it helpful and interesting, especially its emphasis on forgiveness). I felt, and still feel, that channeling in general is suspicious work because it is hard to say who is on the “other line,” and I have come to believe now after years of studying different channeling, that most channelings are combinations of the channeler’s unconscious/conscious filters. If they do have some entity on the other line, then it is usually just a little more developed than humans and no where near the level of conscious advancement of Ra. Moreover, because many channelers are not very discerning, they can fairly easily pick up a negative source that is mimicking positivity and then disseminates an overall negative message. Also, a channeler could initially pick up a positive being and then become unaware if a negative being hijacked the transmission and began aping the original source. This is all too common, I’m afraid. So why did I trust the L/L Research group’s transmission of the Ra Material: The Law of One?
- They had had lots of experience in discernment of spirits before the Ra contact. Don Elkins had worked for years on honing the channeling processes which he approached with a strong scientific mind. By the time Carla L. Rueckert joined Don, there was a well established mode of channeling that honored the metaphysical safeguards necessary to connect with positive beings.
- Carla, herself, had the highest intentions to serve others in the purest manner she could. She was a devout mystical Christian with a strong love for Jesus Christ. She attended her beloved Episcopalian church until her death. She knew from personal experience what a high vibrational contact felt like since she had experienced a deeply profound relationship with Jesus from the age of two.
- The channeling team, Don, Carla, and Jim McCarty, were very intentional in preparing themselves before each session by meditating together, harmonizing their mind, body, and spirits with each other, and Carla prayed one of my personal favorite prayers, the Prayer of St. Francis: “Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.” Amen.
- Unlike almost all channeling, Carla offered herself so completely to the process that she slipped into an unconscious state. Right before going under, she would feel the approach of an external presence who wished to make contact with her. She would then challenge the entity three times by asking if they come in the name of Jesus the Christ. If the entity could respond, “Yes,” to each challenge, then she would open herself up to becoming what Ra called, “the instrument” and thus, was used by the angelically positive group to communicate directly to the questioner, Don. In fact, the Ra group always invited the challenge and affirmed its place in their channeling.
- The material, itself, is the most comprehensive channeling I’ve encountered that encompasses many various areas of the paranormal that had interested me since I was a very young boy.
- Throughout the 106 sessions, Ra was meticulous in their care for not abridging the free will of L/L Research team nor future readers of this material. They often did not answer questions fully because to do so would be violate free will. Only very positive beings would be so careful…and loving.
- Ra was not interested in conveying lots of details especially with regards to black operations and the machinations of negative beings who have been very clever in their work behind the scenes on earth. They knew that if Don’s curiosity led him to ask for more details in these areas, the contact could be lost or overtaken by an aping negative because, as they say, “It is quite precisely correct that the level and purity of this contact is dependent upon the level and purity of information sought” [2]. They were most interested in illuminating that all is a part of the One Infinite Creator and there is an evolution of souls through different bandwidths of consciousness that takes billions of years to get through.
The Ra Group’s Understanding of Jesus
However, I hit a hard wall of confusion at the seventeenth session when the discussion turned to Jesus of Nazareth. As a Christian, my personal relationship with Jesus had always been strong. My understanding of Jesus comes from my faith tradition. He was the Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, the Second Person of the Trinity who incarnated on Earth to reveal to humanity the Love of God. Jesus and the “Father” shared the same unique divine substance which was different than that of creation. My view, along with most Christians, was this: Jesus is God and thus we worship Him, give Him praise and thanksgiving (especially for dying on the Cross for our Salvation), and endeavor to invite Him into our hearts. By doing all of these things, we will go to Heaven.
And then I read this:

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
Consciousness is one of the most mysterious phenomena of all time. Scientists, philosophers, and mystics have been searching for the answer to the question, What is Consciousness? for most of human history. In modern times, the spiritual origins of consciousness are being replaced with a materialistic view, that awareness emerges as an additive property of electrical impulses in living things. Despite the fact this theory is assumed to be true, any self-respecting psychologist will tell you we have no idea what consciousness really is. The preceding article discusses consciousness, some of its properties, and possible origins. This is helpful to contemplate because, in the act of trying to understand the mysteries of consciousness, you develop critical thinking skills and stimulate your philosophic muscles, both which are immensely important for almost everything we do in life. Additionally, you’ll develop abstract thinking skills, the ability to explore intangible realities that govern material realms. With the power of an active mind capable of navigating the realities of consciousness, great leaps in personal attainment can be made along with preparing you for the Great Work of making this world a better place.
