The Law of One, Book I, Session 19
February 8, 1981
一的法則：卷一，第十九場集會
1981 年 2 月 8 日
Ra: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. We communicate now.
RA：我是 Ra，我在無限造物者的愛與光中向你們致意。我們現在開始通訊。
Questioner: We are concerned in this communication with the evolution of mind, body, and spirit. It seems to me that a good place to start would be the transition from the second to the third density, then to investigate in detail the evolution of third-density entities of Earth, paying particular attention to the mechanisms which help or hinder that evolution.
問：關於這本書的範圍，我思考過一陣子。在這次通訊我們關切心、身、靈的進化。我想透過問答方式充分探究進化的機制，好讓那些有興趣的個體們能參與他們自己的進化。
我覺得從第二到第三密度的轉變講起會是個好的開始；接著探究地球上第三密度實體進化的細節，特別把注意力放在有助於或妨礙進化的機制。
這是我意圖工作的方向，我希望這是一個正確的方向。
Do all entities make a transition from second to third density, or are there some entities who have never gone through this transition?
首先，我想知道是否所有實體都從第二演變到第三密度，或者有些實體從未經歷這種演變？
Ra: I am Ra. Your question presumes the space/time continuum understandings of the intelligent energy which animates your illusion. Within the context of this illusion we may say that there are some that do not transfer from one particular density to another, for the continuum is finite.
RA：我是 Ra，你的問題假設以空間/時間連續體的角度來認知，那賦予你們幻象生命的智能能量。在這個幻象的脈絡中，我們可以說有些（生命體）不會從一個特定密度轉移到另一個，因為該連續體是有限的。
In the understanding which we have of the universe or creation as one infinite being, its heart beating as alive in its own intelligent energy, it merely is one beat of the heart of this intelligence from creation to creation. In this context each and every entity of consciousness has/is/will experienced/experiencing/experience each and every density.
在我們的理解中，宇宙或造物是一個無限的生命體，它的心跳活生生地存在於它自己的智能能量中，從一次造物到下一次造物（的週期），僅只是這智能的一次心跳，在這個脈絡中，每一個意識的實體都曾經/正在/將要經驗每一個密度。
Questioner: Let’s take the point at which an individualized entity of second density is ready for transition to third. Is this second-density being what we would call animal?
問：當一個個體化的第二密度實體準備過渡到第三密度，這個第二密度生命體是否為我們所謂的動物？
Ra: I am Ra. There are three types of second-density entities which become, shall we say, enspirited. The first is the animal. This is the most predominant. The second is the vegetable, most especially that which you call, sound vibration complex, “tree.” These entities are capable of giving and receiving enough love to become individualized. The third is mineral. Occasionally a certain location/place, as you may call it, becomes energized to individuality through the love it receives and gives in relationship to a third-density entity which is in relationship to it. This is the least common transition.
RA：我是 Ra，有三種第二密度實體變得，容我們說，有靈性（enspirited）。第一種是動物，這是最普遍的，其次是植物，特別是你們所稱的，聲音振動複合體，"樹"。
這些實體能夠給予並接收足夠的愛以變成個體化；第三種是礦物，偶爾，一個特定的位置/地方，由於與一個第三密度實體的關係，在此關係中，接收並給予愛，而被充能具備個體性。這是最罕見的過渡方式。
Questioner: When this transition from second to third density takes place, how does the entity, whether it be animal, [vegetable] tree, or mineral, become enspirited?
問：當第二密度開始過渡到第三密度，該實體，不論是動物，樹（植物），或礦物，如何變得有靈性？
Ra: I am Ra. Entities do not become enspirited. They become aware of the intelligent energy within each portion, cell, or atom, as you may call it, of its beingness.
RA：我是 Ra，實體並不會變得有靈性，（而是）他們逐漸覺察到智能能量在每個部分、細胞、或原子內；如你所稱，覺察其存在性。
This awareness is that which is awareness of that already given. From the infinite come all densities. The self-awareness comes from within given the catalyst of certain experiences understanding, as we may call this particular energy, the upward spiraling of the cell or atom or consciousness.
這個覺察是早已被給予的覺知，從無限中衍生所有的密度，透過特定經驗理解的催化劑，產生自我-覺察，我們可以稱這個特別的能量為：細胞或原子或意識的向上螺旋。
You may then see that there is an inevitable pull toward the, what you may call, eventual realization of self.
那麼，你可以看到有股不可避免的拉力朝向自我最終的實現。
Questioner: Then after the transition into the third density, am I correct in assuming—we’ll take Earth as an example—the entities would then look like us? They would be in human form? Is this correct?
問：那麼，過渡到第三密度之後，我們以地球做為例子，我假設這些實體就會長得像我們一樣？他們會具有人形？是否正確？
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct, taking your planetary sphere as an example.
RA：我是 Ra，以你們星球為例，這是正確的。
Questioner: When the first second-density entities became third-density on this planet, was this with the help of the transfer of beings from Mars, or were there second-density beings who transferred into third density with no outside influence?
問：在這個星球上，當首批第二密度實體成為第三密度；他們是藉外力幫助從火星轉移到此，或者他們不仰賴外界影響，從第二密度轉移到第三密度？
Ra: I am Ra. There were some second-density entities which made the graduation into third density with no outside stimulus but only the efficient use of experience.
RA：我是 Ra，有些第二密度實體不靠外界刺激，僅有效運用其經驗，畢業到第三密度。
Others of your planetary second density joined the third-density cycle due to harvesting efforts by the same sort of sending of vibratory aid as those of the Confederation send you now. This communication was, however, telepathic rather than telepathic/vocal or telepathic/written due to the nature of second-density beings.
你們地球上其他的第二密度實體，藉由收割效應的幫助，好比星際聯邦現在送給你們的援助一般，加入第三密度。不同的是，（他們接收的）通訊純粹是心電感應，而非感應/口頭或感應/書寫，這是由於第二密度生命體的特質之故。
Questioner: Who sent the aid to the second-density beings?
問：誰將援助送給第二密度的生命體？
Ra: I am Ra. We call ourselves the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. This is a simplification in order to ease the difficulty of understanding among your people. We hesitate to use the term, sound vibration, understanding, but it is closest to our meaning.
RA：我是 Ra，我們稱呼自己為服務無限造物者之星球聯邦。這是個簡化的說法，用意是減輕你們人類理解上的困難。我們有些猶豫是否要用這個名詞，聲音振動，"理解"。但它目前最接近我們的意思。
Questioner: Then did this second-density to third-density transition take place 75,000 years ago? Approximately?
問：好的，這個第二密度到第三密度的過渡過程發生在 7 萬 5 千年前？大約而言？
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.
RA：我是 Ra，這是正確的。
Questioner: Where did the second-density beings get physical vehicles of third-density type to incarnate into?
問：那麼，這些第二密度生命體到哪裡取得第三密度的肉體載具好降生？
Ra: I am Ra. There were among those upon this second-density plane those forms which when exposed to third-density vibrations became the thirddensity, as you would call the sound vibration, human entities.
RA：我是 Ra，這些處於第二密度平面的實體，當他們的形體暴露於第三密度的振動中，如你所稱，就成為第三密度的人類實體。
That is, there was loss of body hair, as you would call it, the clothing of the body to protect it, the changing of the structure of the neck, jaw, and forehead in order to allow the easier vocalization, and the larger cranial development characteristic of third-density needs. This was a normal transfiguration.
也就是說，［如你所稱的］體毛減少，肉體需要衣服保護。脖子，上下顎，及前額結構的改變，好讓發聲較為容易。發展出更大的頭顱，因應第三密度的需要。
這是正常的轉形（transfiguration）。
Questioner: Over how long a period of time was this transfiguration? It must have been very short.
問：這個轉形的過程大約有多久？一定相當短暫。
Ra: I am Ra. The assumption is correct, in our terms at least—within a generation and one-half, as you know these things. Those who had been harvested of this planet were able to use the newly created physical complex of chemical elements suitable for third-density lessons.
RA：我是 Ra，這假設是正確的，至少以我們的期限而言 —— 如你所知，（這過程）大約在一個半世代時間內完成。那些已經被收割到這個星球的實體們能夠使用這新創造的，由化學元素組成的肉體複合體，適合於第三密度的課程。
Questioner: Can you tell me how this newly created physical complex was suited to third-density lessons and what those lessons were?
問：你能否告訴我，這個新型的肉體複合體如何適合於第三密度的課程，這些課程是什麼？
Ra: I am Ra. There is one necessity for third density. That necessity is elfawareness, or self-consciousness. In order to be capable of such, this chemical complex of body must be capable of abstract thought. Thus, the fundamental necessity is the combination of rational and intuitive thinking. This was transitory in the second-density forms operating largely upon intuition which proved through practice to yield results.
RA：我是 Ra，第三密度有一個需要，那需要是自我-覺察，或自我-意識。為了能夠如此，肉體的化學複合體必須能夠抽象思考。因此，根本的需求是結合理性與直覺思考。第二密度形體的理性思考很短暫，大部分仰賴直覺運作，透過練習獲得結果。
The third-density mind was capable of processing information in such a way as to think abstractly and in what could be termed “useless” ways, in the sense of survival. This is the primary requisite.
第三密度的心智能夠處理抽象的資訊，以生存的角度而言，會去想被稱為"無用"的東西。這是（第三密度）主要的必備條件。
There are other important ingredients: the necessity for a weaker physical vehicle to encourage the use of the mind, the development of the already present awareness of the social complex. These also being necessary: the further development of physical dexterity in the sense of the hand, as you call this portion of your body complex.
其他還有一些重要的成分：較弱的肉體載具以鼓勵心智的使用，發展已經存在的社會複合體覺察。（以下）這些也是必須的：進一步發展肉體中雙手［如你對這部分的肉體複合體的稱呼］的靈巧度。
Questioner: This seems to be a carefully planned or engineered stage of development. Can you tell me anything of the origin of this plan or its development?
問：這似乎是個被仔細計畫或策劃的發展階段。你能夠告訴我任何關於這個發展的計畫起源？
Ra: I am Ra. We go back to previous information. Consider and remember the discussion of the Logos. With the primal distortion of free will, each galaxy developed its own Logos. This Logos has complete free will in determining the paths of intelligent energy which promote the lessons of each of the densities given the conditions of the planetary spheres and the sun bodies.
RA：我是 Ra，我們回到先前的資訊。考慮並回想關於理則（Logos）的討論。協同自由意志之原初變貌，每一個銀河發展出它自己的理則。這個理則有完整的自由意志決定智能能量的途徑，考量星球與恆星的條件，以促進每一個密度的課程。
Questioner: I will make a statement then of my understanding and ask you if I am correct. There is a, what I would call, physical catalyst operating at all times upon the entities in third density. I assume this operates approximately the same way in second density. It is a catalyst which acts through what we call pain and emotion. Is the primary reason for the weakening of the physical body and the elimination of body hair, etc. so that this catalyst would act more strongly upon the mind and therefore create the evolutionary process?
問：我將照我的理解做個聲明，然後問你我是否正確。有個我稱為的物理催化劑在第三密度全時間運作著。我假設這個催化劑在第二密度運作的方式大致相同。這個催化劑透過我們稱為的痛苦與情感來作用。這是不是肉體被弱化，
毛髮被消除等等的主要原因？好讓這催化劑更強烈地作用在心智上，從而創造出進化過程？
Ra: I am Ra. This is not entirely correct, although closely associated with the distortions of our understanding.
RA：我是 Ra，這並不完全正確，雖然與我們理解的變貌密切地相關。
Consider, if you will, the tree for instance. It is self-sufficient. Consider, if you will, the third-density entity. It is self-sufficient only through difficulty and deprivation. It is difficult to learn alone for there is a built-in handicap, at once the great virtue and the great handicap of third density. That is the rational/intuitive mind.
如果你願意，以樹做為例子來考量，它是自給自足的。再考慮第三密度的實體，它也可以自給自足，但必須歷經艱難及貧困*。獨自學習是困難的，因為有個內建的障礙，同時是第三密度偉大的美德亦是偉大的障礙；那是理性/直覺的心智。
（*譯註：有些人或許以為自給自足並不難，但看過魯賓遜漂流記的人，就知道一個人完全地靠自己生活，食衣住行樣樣自己動手，是很艱難的一件事。thanks to Carla's teaching.）
Thus, the weakening of the physical vehicle, as you call it, was designed to distort entities towards a predisposition to deal with each other. Thus, the lessons which approach a knowing of love can be begun.
因此，如你所言，肉體載具的弱化，是被設計來扭轉實體，使其傾向彼此交流。如此，（學習）知曉愛的課程得以展開。
This catalyst then is shared between peoples as an important part of each self’s development as well as the experiences of the self in solitude and the synthesis of all experience through meditation. The quickest way to learn is to deal with other-selves. This is a much greater catalyst than dealing with the self. Dealing with the self without other-selves is akin to living without what you would call mirrors. Thus, the self cannot see the fruits of its being-ness. Thus, each may aid each by reflection. This is also a primary reason for the weakening of the physical vehicle, as you call the physical complex.
人們彼此分享的催化劑在每個自我的發展都具有重要的地位，跟自我在獨處時透過冥想整合所有經驗同樣重要。
學習的最快方式是與其他-自我打交道。這個催化劑，比只跟自己打交道要大許多。只跟自己打交道不跟其他-自我往來，就好比生活沒有你們所謂的鏡子一般。
因此，自我無法看到其存在性的果實。所以，每一個實體藉由（鏡子的）映照來彼此幫助。這也是弱化肉體載具或肉體複合體的主要原因。
Questioner: Then we have second-density beings who have primarily motivation towards self and possibly a little motivation towards service to others with respect to their immediate family going into third density and carrying this bias with them but being in a position now where this bias will slowly be modified to one which is aimed toward a social complex and ultimately towards union with the all. Am I correct?
問：那麼，第二密度的生命體的主要動機朝向自我服務，可能有一點動機朝向服務其他生命體，對象為直系家族。它們攜帶著這個傾向進入第三密度，但這個傾向會被緩慢地修改，對象改為一個社會複合體，最終朝向與一切萬有的聯合。
我這樣說對嗎？
Ra: I am Ra. You are correct.
RA：我是 Ra，你是正確的。
Questioner: Then the newest third-density beings who have just made the transition from second are still strongly biased towards self-service. There must be many other mechanisms to create an awareness of the possibility of service to others.
問：那麼最近才從第二密度過渡到第三密度的生命體依舊強烈地傾向自我-服務。一定有許多其他機制創造一個覺察，認識服務他人的可能性。
I am wondering, first about the mechanism and I am wondering when the split takes place where the entity is able to continue on the road to service to self that will eventually take him on to fourth density.
我在想，首先是關於該機制，這個分離何時發生，讓實體得以繼續行走在服務自我的道路上，最終到達第四密度。
I’m assuming that an entity can start, say, in second density with service to self and continue right on through and just stay on what we would call the path of service to self and never be pulled over. Is this correct?
我假設一個實體可以，比方說，在第二密度服務自我，然後一直繼續下去，持續停留在我們所謂的服務自我的途徑，絕不被拉開。是否正確？
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. The second-density concept of serving self includes the serving of those associated with tribe or pack. This is not seen in second density as separation of self and other-self. All is seen as self since in some forms of second-density entities, if the tribe or pack becomes weakened, so does the entity within the tribe or pack.
RA：我是 Ra，這並不正確。第二密度對於服務自我的概念包括服務同一族群。
在第二密度中，同一族群並不會被視為有自我與其他-自我之分別。全都被視為自我，因為在第二密度的實體中，如果一個族群被削弱，該族群中的實體也被削弱。
The new or initial third density has this innocent, shall we say, bias or distortion towards viewing those in the family, the society, as you would call, perhaps, country, as self. Thus though a distortion not helpful for progress in third density, it is without polarity.
起初的第三密度實體，容我們說，有著純潔（innocent）的傾向或變貌，將家族、社會、或甚至國家都視為自我。此一變貌對於在第三密度的演進並無幫助，它是沒有極性的。
The break becomes apparent when the entity perceives otherselves as otherselves and consciously determines to manipulate other-selves for the benefit of the self. This is the beginning of the road of which you speak.
當一個實體感知其他自我為其他-自我，並且有意識地決定去操控其他-自我以圖利自我，此時轉戾點才變明顯。這即是你剛才所說的途徑之開端。
Questioner: Then, through free will, some time within the third density experience, the path splits and the entity consciously chooses—or he probably doesn’t consciously choose. Does the entity consciously choose this path of the initial splitting point?
問：那麼，透過自由意志，在第三密度經驗的某個時間點，途徑分開，實體有意識地選擇 —— 或者他很可能並非有意識地選擇。
實體在起初的分隔點是否有意識地選擇途徑？
Ra: I am Ra. We speak in generalities which is dangerous for always inaccurate. However, we realize you look for the overview; so we will eliminate anomalies and speak of majorities.
RA：我是 Ra，我們以一般通則來說這是危險且總是不精確的。然而，我們理解你追求一個概論，所以我們消除例外，只說大多數的情況。
The majority of third density beings is far along the chosen path before realization of that path is conscious.
大多數的第三密度生命體，在有意識領悟到這條途徑之前，就已經在撿選的途徑上走很遠了。
Questioner: Can you tell me what bias creates the momentum towards the chosen path of service to self?
問：你能否告訴我，什麼偏見創造出朝向服務自我途徑的動量？
Ra: I am Ra. We can speak only in metaphor. Some love the light. Some love the darkness. It is a matter of the unique and infinitely various Creator choosing and playing among its experiences as a child upon a picnic. Some enjoy the picnic and find the sun beautiful, the food delicious, the games refreshing, and glow with the joy of creation. Some find the night delicious, their picnic being pain, difficulty, sufferings of others, and the examination of the perversities of nature. These enjoy a different picnic.
RA：我是 Ra，我們只能以暗喻方式來說。
有些實體愛那光，有些愛那黑暗。這件事的重點：有無限地、獨特地、各式各樣的造物者，（他們）在經驗中，選擇並玩耍著。好比小孩子去遠足野餐。
有些小孩享受野餐的方式是發現太陽是美麗的，食物是美味的，遊戲新鮮有趣，在造物中喜悅地發光著。
有些則發現夜晚是可口的，他們的野餐是：其他實體的痛苦、困難、苦難，以及檢視自然的乖張處。他們享受不同的野餐。
All these experiences are available. It is the free will of each entity which chooses the form of play, the form of pleasure.
所有這些經驗都是可得的，由每一個實體的自由意志去選擇玩耍的形式，愉悅的形式。
Questioner: I assume that an entity on either path can decide to change paths at any time and possibly retrace steps, the path changing being more difficult the farther along the path the change is made. Is this correct?
問：我假設一個實體不管在哪一條途徑上，都可以在任何時刻選擇更換途徑，可能要先折回原點，所以在某條途徑上走得越遠，要改變途徑就會越困難。這樣說正確嗎？
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. The further an entity has, what you would call, polarized, the more easily this entity may change polarity, for the more power and awareness the entity will have.
RA：我是 Ra，這是不正確的。如你所言，一個實體已極化［如你所稱］越深，這個實體就越容易改變極性，因為這個實體具有更多的力量與覺知性。
Those truly helpless are those who have not consciously chosen but who repeat patterns without knowledge of the repetition or the meaning of the pattern.
那些真正無助的是尚未有意識地選擇的實體，他們重複著某種樣式，卻沒有這個重複的知識，不知道該樣式的意義。
Questioner: I believe we have a very important point here. It then seems that there is an extreme potential in this polarization the same as there is in electricity. We have a positive and negative pole. The more you build the charge on either of these, the more the potential difference and the greater the ability to do work, as we call it in the physical.
問：我相信我們得到非常、非常重要的一點。如同電學，在極化過程會產生極大的位能。我們有正極，與負極。你越是在某一端累積電荷（charge），就產生更大的位能差，有更多能力做功（work），正如我們稱呼的物理學名稱。
This would seem to me to be the same analogy that we have in consciousness. Is this correct?
在我看來，意識（的極化）具有相同的類比關係，是否正確？
Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct.
RA：我是 Ra，精準地正確。
Questioner: Then it would seem that there is a relationship between what we perceive as a physical phenomenon, say the electrical phenomenon, and the phenomenon of consciousness in that they, having stemmed from the one Creator, are practically identical but have different actions. Is this correct?
問：好的，那麼似乎在物理現象，比方說電子現象，與意識現象之間有個關係。它們都源自太一造物者，它們幾乎是相同的，只是有不同的動作，是否正確？
Ra: I am Ra. Again we oversimplify to answer your query.
RA：我是 Ra，再次，我們得過度簡化來回答你的詢問。
The physical complex alone is created of many, many energy or electromagnetic fields interacting due to intelligent energy, the mental configurations or distortions of each complex further adding fields of electromagnetic energy and distorting the physical complex patterns of energy, the spiritual aspect serving as a further complexity of fields which is of itself perfect but which can be realized in many distorted and unintegrated ways by the mind and body complexes of energy fields.
肉體複合體本身是由許多、許多源自於智能能量的能量場或電磁場互動所構成；心智複合體的配置或變貌又進一步增加電磁能量場，並且扭曲肉體複合體的能量樣式；靈性層面做為一個更加複雜的場，其自身是完美的，但透過心智與肉體複合體能量場，能夠以許多被扭曲以及未整合的方式被呈現表達。
Thus, instead of one, shall we say, magnet with one polarity you have in the body/mind/spirit complex one basic polarity expressed in what you would call violet-ray energy, the sum of the energy fields, but which is affected by thought of all kinds generated by the mind complex, by distortions of the body complex, and by the numerous relationships between the microcosm which is the entity and the macrocosm in many forms which you may represent by viewing the stars, as you call them, each with a contributing energy ray which enters the electromagnetic web of the entity due to its individual distortions.
好比磁鐵具有一個極性，容我們說，你們的心/身/靈複合體也有一個極性，在紫羅蘭光芒能量 —— （各個）能量場的總合 —— 中表達一個基本極性。但它受到許多因素影響：心智複合體產生的所有思想；肉體複合體的變貌，以及小宇宙［該實體］與大宇宙的眾多關係。你們可以透過觀察［如你稱呼的］星星，了解大宇宙與小宇宙的代表性關係。每一個星星貢獻的能量光芒，因著個別的變貌，進入該實體的電磁網絡。
Questioner: Is this then the root of what we call astrology?
問：那麼，這是否為占星學的根源？
Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full question of this session.
RA：我是 Ra，這將是此次集會的最後一個完整的問題。
The root of astrology, as you speak it, is one way of perceiving the primal distortions which may be predicted along probability/possibility lines given, shall we say, cosmic orientations and configurations at the time of the entrance into the physical/mental complex of the spirit and at the time of the physical/mental/spiritual complex into the illusion.
如你所說，占星學［如你的說法］的根源，是感知原初變貌的一種方式，可以沿著已知的或然率/可能性途徑來預測它們；容我們說，前提為已知（人）靈進入肉體/心理複合體的時間，肉體/心理/靈性複合體進入該幻象的時間；以及在這兩個時間的天體定向與配置。
This then has the possibility of suggesting basic areas of distortion. There is no more than this. The part astrology plays is likened unto that of one root among many.
那麼，這（占星學）可能具有提示變貌的基本區域之功能，就僅止於此了。
占星學扮演的角色可比擬為（知識之樹的）許多樹根之一。
Questioner: Is there anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable?
問：我現在唯一的問題是，有什麼我們可以做的，使這器皿更舒適？
Ra: I am Ra. This instrument is well aligned. You are being very conscientious. We request you take more care in being assured that this instrument is wearing footwear of what you would call, vibratory sound complex, shoes.
RA：我是Ra。這器皿的校準良好，你們相當認真負責，我們請求你們更多加照顧器皿，確保它的腳部有穿戴東西，即你們稱為的，聲音振動複合體，鞋子。
I am Ra. I leave you in the love and the light of the one infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, rejoicing in the power and the peace of the one Creator. Adonai.
我是 Ra，我在太一無限造物者的愛與光中離開你們，那麼向前去吧，在太一造物者的大能與和平中歡欣鼓舞。Adonai。
