Here’s a short excerpt from the same session as last post, dealing with our purpose in life and the role that attention-getting experiences play in that. It’s reasonably self explanatory, so two things I want to mention about this general timeframe at which we find ourselves.

First, Jim McCarty made his first appearance in the archive last session, I believe. In fact, within a few weeks he’s channeling Laitos! As you can tell from the early archive, Carla’s protocols evolved quite a bit after the Ra experience. Jim strikes me as one of the few people who learned channeling in the more relaxed and everyday manner who stuck with it. I mean, if my friend brought through sixth density trance contact in less than a year after I was exposed to this conscious practice, I’d be sold too! But it’s worth noting his questions tended to be of the same caliber as other attendees; what he brought to the table was not easily evinced in the transcripts, I find it safe to say.

Second, notice that Latuii uses a phrase that Ra will reiterate and Carla’s Q’uo will often reference: the old “two by four to the forehead” metaphor for getting one’s attention. I don’t bring this up to undermine the originality of Ra’s message so much as to show how earlier conscious contact enabled Ra, gave those of Ra elements of understood context with which to work. It’s rather worth noting, if you ask me, that the forehead has signifiance not just as a target for assaults; it’s a crucial energy center for spiritual growth. There might even be be significance to the numerals two and four in this rubric, but I leave that to the reader.

The key point is to see how our catalytic experiences set us up for future awareness and service. This set up is not something we have to digest intellectually; in fact, I get the distinct hint that it is in the emotional and abstract engagement with these memories that we as waking selves “load into RAM” our programming. You would think this programming before birth would load the entire program at once into us if it so carefully written; instead, it seems like life itself bears out the sequential triggering. An important element of our lives to keep in mind, redounding no less to the mysterious nature of the personality’s role in this evolution.

M: I have a question. Since I was a young age, I felt I saw a UFO. Can you tell me why I have been searching ever since then? I have studied and tried to understand what it was that I saw and the related fields that I studied. Can you tell me why, or what, lies in the future for me? Why the purpose besides trying to get people more awake to the greater? But I feel I’m singled out.

Latwii: I am aware of your question, my brother. Much of it we cannot answer due to the necessity for your will to be free, However, you answer your own question. If you have not thought it through, I will attempt to help you. You are not to help others, given the phenomenon you describe, but did it not awaken you? What, my friend, is the purpose of what this instrument would call the two-by-four applied to the forehead of the mule, is this not to get his attention? That is why we are here. We are attempting to engage the planetary attention and to, shall we say, give a soft sell, that is not provable but is subjectively available to the people, that will catch their attention and make them begin to seek. That is the reason for this experience, my friend. Your life experience has to do with your evolution as a spirit. You now have your attention upon this fact. Do you now see the place of that experience in your early life, in what has happened to you subsequently?

M: Yes.

Latwii: Does this answer your question, my brother?

M: Yes, it does, but I feel that, could there be another reason besides [inaudible]. Do you understand?

Latwii: We understand what you wish to hear but we will not speak what you wish to hear. But rather, admonish you to remember that the creation waits for no man. Nor should man wait for the creation. You are a part of all that is. That which you do is a part of all that is. Each of those who sit in this circle has a purpose in life or perhaps more than one purpose in life. And the road upon which that purpose lies is a many-branched road, so that you cannot stray from your purpose. You can take a longer or a shorter road. You can only go slowly or quickly or sit down; the purpose remains. However, the purpose of each of you is simple, my friends and has to do with knowing the love of the Creator. As our brother said earlier, once you have established contact with the Creator and the creation, you are then one with the flow that will bring to you that which you need, and will give you the opportunity to do the work that your higher self has prepared for you. Thus, worry not about your purpose in life, but instead, desire to know love. And in that love, to share that love with others. In this way alone will your purpose become evident and its termination final. Does this answer your question?

M: Yes.
