72.0 Ra: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
72.1 Questioner: Could you first give me an indication of the instrument’s condition, please?
Ra: I am Ra. This instrument’s physical energy distortions are as previously stated. The vital energy level has become distorted from normal levels, somewhat downward, due to the distortion in this instrument’s mind complex activity that it has been responsible for the, shall we say, difficulties in achieving the appropriate configuration for this contact.
This instrument’s physical energies are as we previously stated. Due to her state of mind, her vital energy level is somewhat lower than normal, and this has been responsible for the difficulties in achieving contact.
72.2 Questioner: Was the banishing ritual that we performed of any effect in purifying the place of working and screening from influences that we do not wish?
Ra: I am Ra. This is quite correct.
Yes, it was.
72.3 Questioner: Can you tell me what I can do to improve the effectiveness of the ritual?
Ra: I am Ra. No.
No.
72.4 Questioner: Can you tell me what caused the instrument to become in a condition toward unconsciousness during the last two meditations prior to this one to such an extent that we discontinued [them]?
Ra: I am Ra. We can.
Yes, we can.
72.5 Questioner: Would you please tell me that?
Ra: I am Ra. The entity which greets this instrument from the Orion group first attempted to cause the mind/body/spirit complex, which you may call spirit, to leave the physical complex of yellow ray in the deluded belief that it was preparing for the Ra contact. You are familiar with this tactic and its consequences. The instrument, with no pause, upon feeling this greeting, called for the grounding within the physical complex by requesting that the hand be held. Thus the greatest aim of the Orion entity was not achieved. However, it discovered that those present were not capable of distinguishing between unconsciousness with the mind/body/spirit intact and the trance state in which the mind/body/spirit complex is not present.
The Orion group entity who greets this instrument first attempted to cause her mind/body/spirit complex, or what you call spirit, to leave her physical body in the deluded belief that she was preparing for the Ra contact. You are familiar with this tactic and its consequences.
When the instrument felt this greeting, she immediately called for help in grounding herself within her body by requesting that her hand be held. In this way, the Orion entity’s greatest aim was not achieved. However, it discovered that the people present were incapable of telling the difference between unconsciousness with the spirit intact and the trance state in which the spirit is not present.
Therefore, it applied to the fullest extent the greeting which causes the dizziness and in meditation without protection caused, in this instrument, simple unconsciousness as in what you would call fainting or vertigo. The Orion entity consequently used this tactic to stop the Ra contact from having the opportunity to be accomplished.
Therefore, the Orion entity applied their greeting to the fullest extent, and this caused dizziness in the instrument, so meditation without protection caused her simple unconsciousness, or fainting or vertigo. The Orion entity consequently used this tactic to stop the Ra contact from having the opportunity to be accomplished.
72.6 Questioner: The instrument has scheduled an operation on her hand next month. If a general anesthetic is used to create the unconscious state will this or any other parameters of the operation allow for any inroads by the Orion entities?
Ra: I am Ra. It is extremely improbable due to the necessity for the intention of the mind/body/spirit complex, when departing the yellow-ray physical complex, to be serving the Creator in the most specific fashion. The attitude of one approaching such an experience as you describe would not be approaching the unconscious state with such an attitude.
It is extremely improbable because it is necessary for the spirit’s intention, when departing the physical body, to serve the Creator in a most specific fashion. The attitude of one approaching such an experience like the one you described would not be approaching the unconscious state with such an attitude.
72.7 Questioner: We have here, I believe, a very important principle with respect to the Law of One. You have stated that the attitude of the individual is of paramount importance for the Orion entity to be able to be effective. Would you please explain how this mechanism works with respect to the Law of One and why the attitude of the entity is of paramount importance and why this allows for action by the Orion entity?
Ra: I am Ra. The Law of Confusion or Free Will is utterly paramount in the workings of the infinite creation. That which is intended has as much intensity of attraction to the polar opposite as the intensity of the intention or desire.
The Law of Confusion, or Free Will, is utterly paramount in the workings of the infinite creation. That which is intended attracts the polar opposite just as much as the strength of the intention, or desire, itself.
Thus those whose desires are shallow or transitory experience only ephemeral configurations of what might be called the magical circumstance. There is a turning point, a fulcrum which swings as a mind/body/spirit complex tunes its will to service. If this will and desire is for service to others the corresponding polarity will be activated. In the circumstance of this group there are three such wills acting as one with the instrument in the, shall we say, central position of fidelity to service. This is as it must be for the balance of the working and the continuance of the contact. Our vibratory complex is one-pointed in these workings also and our will to serve is also of some degree of purity. This has created the attraction of the polar opposite which you experience.
Thus those whose desires are shallow, or transitory, experience only brief moments of such magic. There is a turning point, a fulcrum, which swings as a mind/body/spirit complex tunes its will to service. If this will and desire is for service to others, the corresponding polarity will be activated.
In the case of this group, there are three such wills acting as one with the instrument in their commitment to be of service. This is the way it must be for the rest of the working, as well as for continuing the contact.
Our vibratory complex [voice] is one-pointed in these workings also, and our will to serve is also of some degree of purity. This has attracted the polar opposite that you experience.
We may note that such a configuration of free will, one-pointed in service to others, also has the potential for the alerting of a great mass of light strength. This positive light strength, however, operates also under free will and must be invoked. We could not speak to this and shall not guide you, for the nature of this contact is such that the purity of your free will must, above all things, be preserved. Thus you wend your way through experiences discovering those biases which may be helpful.
Being one-pointed in service to others of own’s own free will also has the potential for alerting a great mass of light strength. This positive light strength, however, also operates under free will and must be invoked [or, formally called upon].
We could not speak about this and shall not guide you because, above all things, the nature of this contact is such that the purity of your free will must be preserved. So, you move through experiences, discovering for yourself those biases which may be helpful.
72.8 Questioner: The negatively oriented entities who contact us and others on this planet are limited by the first distortion. They have obviously been limited by the banishing ritual just performed. Could you describe, with respect to free will, how they limit themselves in order to work within the first distortion and how the banishing ritual itself works?
Ra: I am Ra. This query has several portions. Firstly, those of negative polarity do not operate with respect to free will unless it is necessary. They call themselves and will infringe whenever they feel it possible.
This question has several portions.
First, those of the negative polarity do not operate with respect to free will unless it is necessary. They call [or, invoke] themselves, and they will infringe whenever they feel it possible.
Secondly, they are limited by the great Law of Confusion in that, for the most part, they are unable to enter this planetary sphere of influence and are able to use the windows of time/space distortion only insofar as there is some calling to balance the positive calling. Once they are here, their desire is conquest.
Second, they are limited by the great Law of Confusion. For the most part, they are unable to enter this planet’s sphere of influence, but they are able to use the windows of time/space distortion as long as there is some [negative] calling to balance the positive calling. Once they are here, their desire is conquest.
Thirdly, in the instance of this instrument’s being removed permanently from this space/time, it is necessary to allow the instrument to leave its yellow-ray physical complex of its free will. Thus trickery has been attempted.
Third, in the case where they wish to permanently remove this instrument from this space/time, it is necessary to allow the instrument to leave her body of her own free will. So, they attempted trickery.
The use of the light forms being generated is such as to cause such entities to discover a wall through which they can not pass. This is due to the energy complexes of the light beings and aspects of the One Infinite Creator invoked and evoked in the building of the wall of light.

The use of the light forms being generated [during the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram]* causes such entities to discover a wall through which they cannot pass. This is due to the energy complexes of the light beings and the aspects of the One Infinite Creator that are invoked and evoked in building the wall of light.
*During this protection ritual, a circular wall of light with particular symbols is visualized around the area of the session. Done properly and with repetition, this creates an energetic wall that negative entities cannot pass through.
72.9 Questioner: Everything that we experience with respect to this contact, our distortion toward knowledge in order to serve, the Orion entity’s distortion toward the attempt to reduce the effectiveness of this service, all of this is a result of the first distortion, as I see it, in creating totally free atmosphere for the Creator to become more knowledgeable of Itself through the interplay of Its portions, one with respect to another. Is my view correct with respect to what I just said?
Ra: I am Ra. Yes.
Yes, it is.
72.10 Questioner: In the last session you mentioned that if the instrument used any of the increased vital energy that she experiences now for physical activity she would pay a “harsh toll.” Could you tell me the nature of that harsh toll and why it would be experienced?
Ra: I am Ra. The physical energy level is a measure of the amount of available energy of the body complex of a mind/body/spirit complex. The vital energy measurement is one which expresses the amount of energy of being of the mind/body/spirit complex.
The physical energy level is the measure of the amount of energy in the body. The vital energy expresses the amount of energy of being.
This entity has great distortions in the direction of mind complex activity, spirit complex activity, and that great conduit to the Creator, the will. Therefore, this instrument’s vital energy, even in the absence of any physical reserve measurable, is quite substantial. However, the use of this energy of will, mind, and spirit for the things of the physical complex causes a far greater distortion in the lessening of the vital energy than would the use of this energy for those things which are in the deepest desires and will of the mind/body/spirit complex. In this entity these desires are for service to the Creator. This entity sees all service as service to the Creator and this is why we have cautioned the support group and the instrument itself in this regard. All services are not equal in depth of distortion. The over-use of this vital energy is, to be literal, the rapid removal of life force.
Carla has great tendencies toward mental activity, spiritual activity, and that great conduit to the Creator, the Will. Therefore, she has a great deal of vital energy, even in the absence of any measurable physical reserve.
However, using the energy of will, mind, and spirit for physical needs uses up far more vital energy than if she were to use this energy for those things which are of the deepest desires and will of the mind/body/spirit complex. In her case, these desires are for service to the Creator.
This entity sees all service as service to the Creator. This is why we have cautioned the support group and the instrument herself in this regard. All services are not equal in their depth of distortion. The over-use of this vital energy is, literally, the rapid removal of life force.
72.11 Questioner: You mentioned that the large amount of light is available. Could I by, or this group by, proper ritual, use this for recharging the vital energy of the instrument?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. However, we caution against any working which raises up any personality; rather it is well to be fastidious in your working.
Yes, you could. However, we caution against any working which favors any particular person; rather, it is well to be fastidious in your working.
72.12 Questioner: Could you explain what you mean by “raises up any personality?”
Ra: I am Ra. Clues, we may offer. Explanation is infringement. We can only ask that you realize that all are One.
We can offer clues, but explanation is infringement [of free will]. We can only ask that you realize that all are One.
72.13 Questioner: We have included “Shin” in the banishing ritual, “Yod Heh Vau Heh” to make it “Yod Heh Shin Vau Heh.” Is this helpful?

Note: YHshVH is produced by placing the Hebrew letter shin in the middle of yod-heh-vav-heh (YHVH) and is usually transliterated as Yeheshua (also translated as Yoshu or Joshua). Christian influence on the Western Mystery Tradition made the claim that this is the name of Jesus in Hebrew (Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua, which means “the Lord saves”). See this link for an in-depth explanation of the symbolism.
Ra: I am Ra. This is helpful especially to the instrument whose distortions vibrate greatly in congruency with this sound vibration complex.
Yes, this is helpful, especially to the instrument who greatly resonates with this sound.
72.14 Questioner: We will in the future have group meditations as our Sunday night meditations. I am concerned in… protection for the instrument if she is once more a channel in these. Is there an optimum time or limiting amount of time for the banishing ritual to be effective, or if we continually, daily, purify the place of working that we use for the Sunday night meditation with the banishing ritual would this carry over for long periods of time, or must the ritual be done immediately prior to the meditations?
Ra: I am Ra. Your former assumption is more nearly correct.
Your former assumption [that the effects of the ritual carry over for long periods of time] is more correct.
72.15 Questioner: Is there any danger in the Sunday night meditations, [with the] precautions we are taking, of the instrument being led away by the Orion entity?
Ra: I am Ra. The opportunities for the Orion entity are completely dependent upon the instrument’s condition of awareness and readiness. We would suggest that this instrument is still too much the neophyte to open itself to questions since that is the format used by Ra. As the instrument grows in awareness this precaution may become unnecessary.

72.16 Questioner: Is it possible to over-energize the instrument with sexual energy transfers?
Ra: I am Ra. No.
No, it is not.
72.17 Questioner: Why is there no protection at the floor or bottom of the banishing ritual, and should there be?
Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full query of this working.
This will be the last full question of this working.
The development of the psychic greeting is possible only through the energy centers starting from a station which you might call within the violet ray moving through the adept’s energy center and therefrom towards the target of opportunity. Depending upon the vibratory nature and purpose of greeting, be it positive or negative, the entity will be energized or blocked in the desired way.
The development of a psychic greeting is possible only through the energy centers. It starts from the violet ray [crown chakra], moving through the adept’s energy center, and from there moving towards the target of opportunity. Depending upon the vibratory nature and purpose of the greeting, either positive or negative, the entity will be energized or blocked in the desired way.
We of Ra approach this instrument in narrow-band contact through violet ray. Others might pierce down through this ray to any energy center. We, for instance, make great use of this instrument’s blue-ray energy center as we are attempting to communicate our distortion/understandings of the Law of One.

We, for instance, make great use of this instrument’s blue-ray [throat chakra] center because we are attempting to communicate our understandings of the Law of One.
The entity of Orion pierces the same violet ray and moves to two places to attempt most of its non-physical opportunities. It activates the green-ray energy center while further blocking indigo-ray energy center. This combination causes confusion in the instrument and subsequent over-activity in unwise proportions in physical complex workings. It simply seeks out the distortions pre-incarnatively programmed and developed in incarnative state.
The Orion entity pierces the same violet ray and moves to two places to attempt most of its non-physical opportunities. It activates the green-ray [heart] energy center while further blocking indigo-ray [third eye] energy center. This combination causes the instrument confusion, followed by over-activity in unwise proportions in her bodily functions. It simply seeks out the distortions she programmed before this incarnation.
The energies of life itself, being the One Infinite Creator, flow from the south pole of the body seen in its magnetic form. Thus only the Creator may, through the feet, enter the energy shell of the body to any effect. The effects of the adept are those from the upper direction and thus the building of the wall of light is quite propitious.
Being the One Infinite Creator, the energies of life itself flow magnetically from the south pole of the body. So, only the Creator may, through the feet, enter the energy shell of the body to any effect. The effects of the adept enter from the top, and thus the building of the wall of light is quite advantageous.
May we ask if there are any shorter queries at this time?
Are there any shorter questions at this time?
72.18 Questioner: I would just ask if there is anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable or improve the contact?
Ra: I am Ra. This instrument has some increased distortion in the region of the neck. Some attention here might provide greater comfort. All is well, my friends. The forbearance and patience observed by Ra are commendable. Continue in this fastidiousness of purpose and care, for the appropriate configurations for contact, and our continuance of contact, will continue to be possible. This is acceptable to us.
This instrument has some pain in her neck. Some attention here might provide greater comfort.
All is well, my friends. The forbearance and patience that we observe are commendable.
Continue in this dedication and care so that the appropriate configurations for contact, and our continuance of contact, will continue to be possible. This is acceptable to us.
I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, glorying in the love and the light of the One Infinite Creator. Go forth, then, rejoicing in the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
