Rabia  I am by no means in a position to be one to cast of stone, I would like just to understand. I would rather be offended while being in a position where things can still be straightened out, than waiting until you get to such a terrible place. As for RoL, that text is very confusing to me. Rabbi AA says those who engage in this kind of behavior are dead inside, spiritually dead, unhappy, etc. and they need to be offered all the help you can give them. That RoL text is very confusing, and it seems to me, somewhat contradictory.  Or maybe is written in such a way, so that various people, depending on their level, could get whatever they need out of it...

London I was talking about Land of Darkness. Ray says he has been there for 24 hours in Earth time. As for Kaph HaKela, I am aware that he says there is no way out. Basically, according to what he says, that's a place of annihilation, so there is nothing to come back from there. That concept is not clearly captured in the Christian theology as it is these days, but it does seem to be hinted at in the Bible.

The concepts in those links are quite different than what Ray talks about...

It seems to me that Ray just gently hints of another action that could land some in the Land of Darkness. When he talks about 2 individuals with the same "charge" either both positive or both "negative", if they come together "and do something" they will end up in the Land of Darkness as well.

It seems to me he talks about those who engage in sexual acts with partners of the same sex, be it males or females.  Am I off the mark here?

If I understand him right, question would be: what can one who has engaged in such actions do, to avoid ending up in the Land of Darkness? Unlike those who commit suicide, we are talking here about people who are still alive, what rectification can be done, to avoid ending in such an awful place?

The more I learn about Jewish mysticism, since spending time on Rays of Light/Ray/Unifyd, the more I find out how initial "Christianity" and Jewish mysticism converge. No wonder, initially Christianity was nothing more than another "sect" within Judaism.

While Reformation did away with the concept of so-called Purgatory, I find out that the exposition Ray gives about the Land of Darkness corresponds quite well to the concept of Purgatory, at least as understood in the more ancient times, before the times of the Reformation.

Kaf HaKela, at least as espoused by Ray, seems to correspond quite precisely to the concept of Hades (Hell) as understood in early Christianity and talked about in the New Testament.

I grew up in a part of Christianity that flows from the Reformation, where there is no belief in a Land of Darkness (or Purgatory). What Ray talks about in here, makes me want to revisit that non-belief and study the concept more.

I have one, I love it. It's very nice to drive or let them do the driving for you. So quiet and smooth.

Now I understand more why I was told that I am responsible for the way the world is currently. I was like what, who am I, in the end I am a nobody, how can I be responsible for where the world is right now. This helps me understand something the was puzzling to me.

Kind of giving up on exercise in futility. Questions very rarely picked up and answered. The current format doesn't work when you have hundreds of people all vying for that small 1 hour and whatever posted by other means seem to go into a black hole. Looks like I have to figure out things on my own, as much as I can.

Wow. This hit me right  into center of my being. Why was I not told these things before? Or maybe I didn't have ears to hear yet?

This is not new, this has been said all along from the beginning...
