There were begun some memorials in the Nubian land which
still may be seen, even in this period, in the mountains of
the land. Whole mountains were honeycombed, and were dug
into sufficient to where the perpetual fires are STILL in
activity in these various periods, when the priest then
began to show the manifestations of those periods of
reckoning the longitude (as termed now), latitude, and the
activities of the planets and stars, and the various groups
of stars, constellations, and the various influences that are
held in place, or that HOLD in place those about this
particular solar system. Hence in the Nubian land there were
first begun the reckoning of those periods when the Sun has
its influence upon human life, and let's REMEMBER that it is
in this period when the PRESENT RACE has been called into
being - and the INFLUENCE is reckoned from all experiences of
Ra-Ta, as the effect upon the body physical, the body mental,
the body spiritual, or soul body; and these are the
reckonings and the effects that were reckoned with, and
about, and of, and concerning, in their various phases and
effects. These all were set, not by Ra-Ta - but EXPRESSED in
the DEVELOPMENT of Ra-Ta, that these DO affect - by the
forces as set upon all - not only the inhabitant of a given
sphere or planet, but the effect all has upon every form of
expression in that sphere of the Creative Energies in action
in that given sphere, and this particular sphere - or earth -
was the RECKONING in that period. Hence arose what some
termed those idiosyncrasies of planting in the moon, or in
the phases of the moon, or of the tides and their effect, or
of the calling of an animal in certain phases of the moon or
seasons of the year, or of the combining of elements in the
mineral kingdom, vegetable kingdom, animal kingdom, in
various periods, were FIRST discovered or first given, not
discovered - first CONSCIOUS of - by Ra-Ta, in his first
giving to the peoples of the Nubian land.
Well may it be imagined, then, as to the effect this had upon
the peoples who classed themselves as the elect, the chosen,
and yet recognizing that for a PHYSICAL activity there had
been the envy, selfishness, strife, contention, and those
things that are of the body, that pertain to those lusts of
the body, which had brought about or produced that which
separated that which would build from themselves.
In this condition, then, were there emissaries of the
various positions sent back and forth by the leaders of that
particular period, that would eventually bring about the
restoring of the priest, who - under the STRAIN - very short
period had, to the apparent eye of those about him, become
aged, decrepit, and not able physically to carry on; and FEAR
began to be felt that there would not be the sustaining
strength sufficient that there might be given to the peoples
that which had been begun by the entity in the Egyptian land,
and that which was being manifested in this land to which
they had been banished.
Eventually came the period when there was to be the attempt,
that there was to be the return of the priest to the land.
Then did this priest of himself, and of the Creative Forces,
EDICT that those who were in close association with this
entity - that had meant an extenuation or savior of a
peoples, into a regeneration of same - would have marks set
in their bodies that would remain throughout their appearance
in the earth's plane, that they might be known to one
another, would they seek to know the closer relationships of
the self to the Creative Forces and the SOURCE - PHYSICAL -
of THEIR activity WITH that source. To some in the eye, to
some in the body, to some the marks upon the body, in those
ways and manners that may only be known to those that are in
that physical and spiritual attunement with the entity as
they pass through the material or earth's sphere together.
They are drawn, then, by what? That same element that was
being accentuated in the earth's plane, as also the other
laws that were discovered - or were given, or were conscious
of - by the entity in that particular period. The purpose of
such, then, that there may be known, that with such an
association there may come an awakening to that which was
accomplished by those of the select - not elect, but SELECT -
in that particular endeavor.
These are, then, in that position wherein their relationships
may be of the best, the CLOSEST relationships of the mental,
the material, the SPIRITUAL developments of all that aided in
that particular experience, for the good of the group, the
nation, the world - and hence the activities in whatever
direction must INFLUENCE the WHOLE of the human race, whether
ANY of that particular group enter as servants, as kings, as
ministers, as those that mete penal justice, or those that
would become emissaries, or ministers, or those that are of
those sources that in MATERIAL things bespeak of the lore of
the attributes of physical relationships. All are to, and
for, and OF, that that makes for an awakening of those
conditions, that make for an awareness of that manifested at
that period.
With the return then of the priest to the Temple Beautiful,
there first began the priest to withdraw himself from the
whole that regeneration in body might become manifest, and
the body lay down the material weaknesses - and from those
sources of regeneration RECREATED the body in its ELEMENTAL
forces for the carrying on of that which these material
positions gave the opportunity for; leaving first the records
of the world from that day until when there is the change in
the race.
Through for the day.
