What does Service to Others really entail?

I have also read this in many past life regression stories. Not just third density, but incarnation in third density Earth is one of the tougher courses a spirit can select. It is suppose to allow more rapid development of the ‘choice’ and expanded understanding of consciousness.

That’s true I think. On Venus Ra went through an easier third density than for us humans on earth if I remember correctly. That means as I see it that on Venus there was a faster development of a service-to-others social memory complex. And this would mean that even though it’s harder for us to reach fourth density, we humans on earth have a more developed sense of individuality.

I see how individuality is forced as a mean to survive, but the sense of separation which is so strong right now also amplifies the difference when you suddenly feel a bond with another, so I think this is one of the essential of being human right now, experiencing the bliss of suddenly no separation.

So the chaos here may at first enhance individuality but also it definitely amplifies the bliss of Oneness with a perhaps way more powerful force…

paradox, paradox :blue_heart:

Yes, but I think there is a limit to how far the separation can go and beyond that we may get stuck in separation until mid 6th density! That it would be too difficult to form a oneness for us humans on earth if the separation gets worse and worse.

Therefore service-to-others is I believe a key factor for reversing the conflict-ridden trend towards separation and service-to-self.

Oh I totally agree Anders, I was not preaching for separation at all. I was just observing that the sense of separation exists at first. After all it starts when the baby realizes that he is alone separated from the mother as he becomes aware of his individuality, then the survival kicks in and the separations reinforced.

Then the real exciting challenge starts when we realize that after all we are not separated that much… lol

After I started to live more independently and work to earn my own money, I found that it is pretty hard to do the “service to others” path fully, our society system is that way, I imagine most people lives like me, you have a work where you are beneath someone (your employer, boss or senior) and they probably will tell you to do stuff you are somewhat forced to do or don’t want to do, that is the service of self path because you are willing to be commanded and being inside a hierarchical system, but if you don’t you probably wont receive any money and will be jobless as a result you will have a lot of difficulties staying inside this society. Realistically the way to do it really is just to live like a Buddhist monk for people with no money like me. I used to be very naive, “helped” others not expecting anything in return, but honestly you are still a burden to someone, you still need to eat, drink, sleep, and if you don’t do the effort to sustain yourself you will be a burden to someone, maybe to a family member and that may generate bad karma for both, like I said I started very naive when I started reading and trying to live by the Law of One, it definitely helped me a lot, definitely helped with my depression, made me accept how things are, from what I got it is all about experiences and learning from them while trying to go through these experiences the best way you can and avoid bad karma.
Maybe finding a job I/you actually love to do is the answer for the service to others path but, it is so hard to find something like that and actually can sustain your livelihood.
Life here on third density Earth is definitely not all “Sunshine and Rainbows”.

I was pondering the concept of evolution
related to the spirit portion of mind/body/spirit,
the opportunity to evolve as much greater
as incarnate and having experiences than not.

And I was pondering the idea of consequentialism,
as experiences having consequences that may go
unseen as spiritually veiled from perception, this
veiling as by design to enhance strength of
polarization - to enhance odds of being harvestable.

And well, I considered everyone as having a
spirit body that did not resemble a physical
human body as much as a neuron in say a
network of neurons, tied together by
interconnecting linkages, like dendrites.

And so one of the reasons to polarize, might
possibly be a sorting hat of two spirit body
types, that aggregate compatibly together
into spirit body networks.

So it doesn’t seem farfetched to me that a person
who polarizes strongly STO has many many linkages
to other STO spirit bodies and so on, the web is
quite intermeshed and interconnected in a sense
way as opposed to an STS network as rendered
simpler from an interconnection standpoint due to
illusions of separation, power and control tactics,
etc.

And it may be that earlier more primitive designs
without the polarization density harvest thresholds
and sorting hat aggregations didn’t turn out well.
We likely benefit from wisdom gained through
other experiments in the early galaxy, this tactic
has been found to improve the quality of the higher
density social complex experience, so to speak.

That said, I’m thinking this idea of establishing
spiritual connections as an intent of evolving
high quality of character of our future selves,
where conscious recognition may help beings
align to their future, or higher self. For example,
weighing the pros and cons of spiritual help
over mental or physical help might promote
a person to put more attention to providing
spiritual help to others.

The Alchemist has just made video with her explanation of Ra material’s Service to Others and Service to Self from her perspective. Sarah says Service to Other is higher vibrational pathway, that’s why she finds this terminology outdated and does a lot more confusion and harm than good.

Service to others entails service to self. In other words, STO includes others in self-service. You can serve others better if you serve, and not neglect, the self.

The service is to serve other people without expecting anything in return, and do so with respect to the Law Of Confusion.

I think Ken Keyes in his handbook of Higher Consciousness suggested the Ego as some representation of addicted self centered behaviors causing unhappiness.
I think Sigmund Freud invented Id, Ego, and Super Ego as some means to distinguish psychosis from neurosis. And I think Ra dismisses the concept of Ego as not helpful. It may be somewhat ambiguous. Possibly the idea of intent or reaching to the desire beneath behavior is some greater degree helpful in associating to polarity. I want to help another to progress them on their journey vs I want to help another to progress myself on my journey, STO vs STS.

By ‘ego’ here means a ‘form of limited self-identification’.
If mapped to Yogic philosophies then it can be the any layer of “Maya Kosha” (Bodies / Virtual Sheathing), from physical / food body, astral / pranic body (where chakra is) etc… For Ra they use “Red Ray up to Violent Ray” for bodies / virtual sheathing of consciousness.
Because originally there is only one infinite consciousness, which then formed many limited identities for experiencing. Yet all form of multi-layered identification will be disassembled eventually and it will release the confined / finite consciousness to reunite with one infinite consciousness.

What distinguishes light above from light within? I find this an interesting distinction because it seems more apparent than real. Surely, there are gradations of consciousness, such are represented by the idea of the densities. But 2nd stands upon 1st, and 3rd stands upon 2nd and 1st, etc. To be operating in a level above is really to be operating with the grace and support of all levels below, so how can the light of the finer areas above be substantially different from those levels below? Are they not all one? Are the not actually the same thing, yet experiencing the One differently? Is that not why we are interconnected with other incarnations of our Self on all levels in this one eternal moment? Are we not one with our fuller selves?

Admittedly, this perspective makes more sense if a person experiences self as being a that through consciousness experiences itself – a vehicle of consciousness – rather than viewing self as becoming a master of consciousness. The defining question here is, are you a portion of consciousness or are you something extrinsic of consciousness which can master it?

If you are a portion of it, then it makes sense to flow gracefully with it. If you are extrinsic of consciousness, then what do you suppose you are, exactly?

If you are a portion of consciousness, yet trying to rise above other portions of it, then are you not rejecting yourself in part, cutting the higher free from the lower, thus severing yourself? Does that sound like a wise move to you, I wonder? How is that outcome superior to the state of being fully integrated, whole, balanced and at peace in every quarter?

I think that’s a fair question.

Could you please untangle this verbiage? What does it mean, what does it imply? Why, how cover one light with another? It’s an oddly constructed phrase.

This might just be a primal misconception on your part, that is, attributing malice to the Giver of Life whom you portray as benefiting from the offerings of those who are lower down the ladder. The reality of this may be far different. It may be that each aspirant, each entity, is that which is All, and is simply going through a long process of this Realization.

Your story clarifies much. If this technique worked for one such as, let’s say, Adolph Hitler, why should it not work for you? I would just add that the practical aspects of this approach may be a lot messier than you convey. You may have to dispose of many, many dead bodies along the way, those who prefer to live in the light.

By the way, those who live in light carry plenty of darkness of their own, known as one’s shadow. This is where we stuff all things we find unacceptable and unlovable. Those of the light have plenty of opportunity to know the pleasures of feeling cloaked and unaccountable. These experiences reveal to us the actual depth of our desire to serve the light. Sometimes we are surprised by our own vanity…but then we progress along the path. Step by step. One becomes a beacon of light by again and again recognizing one’s deepest desire, this is, to be the light.
