Where this sits in the contact
The veil
The great experiment. Why you forget. Why polarization became possible. The Course’s tiny mad idea in Confederation detail.
Comes after session 79 (Matrix of Mind). Opens into session 81 (Logos).
In plain words
In this sitting
- What potentiates the mind: the unconscious, the female principle, listening.
- Dreams, the right delay, the holy instant — her tools.
- Service-to-self potentiates by seizing others’ unconscious. Service-to-others waits to be taught.
How this sitting is misread
Will that will not be reached. A closed shop.
Deeper meaning
Ra lingers on the Priestess because students keep playing Magician-as-status. Potentiation is not an idea. It is a yielding of the surface so the deep can work. Dreams, slips, the right delay, the Course’s holy instant — her tools. Service-to-self potentiates by seizing the unconscious of others. Service-to-others waits to be taught, then serves.
Practice
Ask, once, without a script: what am I not hearing? Wait a minute. Write one line.
What potentiates the mind: the unconscious, the female principle, the deep. Listening, in the workbook, is this.
Course
Lesson 71: only God’s plan will work. Lesson 49: God’s Voice speaks all through the day.
Open streamSpalding
If you will not be taught by a child — or by anyone you ranked below you — you have locked the Priestess out.
Open streamRueckert
The instrument was female; the contact was not about that, and also it was. Receptivity is not weakness. It is how Ra got in.
