I have two other posts about this book; another is warranted. One of the things I was reminded when I reread this book, The RA Material,published in 1984, is that we continue to have so much fear about beings from other dimensions, other planes and/or other planets. Statistics show that many of us believe in the existence of extraterrestrials or other dimensional beings. We seem to accept angels and spiritual guides, but see them in a separate category. While there are some negative entities out there, why is it so hard for us to believe that we are being helped? Why is it so hard for us to believe in a kindly God but not one who supplies others to assist our growth? Why is it so hard for us to let go of the feeling that this is the only reality?
Of course, the main reason for our disbelief is our fear. We fear the unknown, which includes the future and the existence of other beings. What I particularly like about this book is that the future presented is a very positive one, as seen through beings who want to help. These are the types of messages we need to be reading. Predicted catastrophes are all too common. We need a balance to know that with the right vision, we can help avert a disaster. With the right vision, we might be able to understand that everything is occurring for a reason and leading us to a better future, even if that future is unknown. With the right vision, we might be able to accept the help that is offered.
Fear of the future and fear of extraterrestrial beings. Perhaps these two are closely related, but we can’t get lost in the image of the movie Independence Day and assume all other beings are out to conquer us. There are entities sent to help, and they will, if we only let them.
No one, however, can impact our future or our lives unless we ask. This is the free will of humans. Others are not allowed to interfere with that. If we accept the existence of other beings who can assist us, such as Ra in this book, then we can reach out and ask for their direction in our time of change. Be open to that possibility.

Review of What To Do when You Can’t Decide: Useful Tools For Finding The Answers Within by Meg Lundstrom
This book describes divining, which is asking for and receiving guidance. There are three practical and easy tools that can be used by anyone: kinesiology, the pendulum, and the chits. Each of these is a way to tap into the universal knowledge or databank.
We can access any information if we do it correctly. While previously these tools and access seemed reserved for only a select few, we are now being given permission and directions on how to find the answers we need in our lives. This book is another example of the shift in our consciousness. Our capabilities have increased. No longer are such procedures reserved. We are now given the opportunity to help our lives directly.
These tools, however, are not used to tell the future.
Kinesiology
Kinesiology has been around for a long time and uses muscle testing. Muscles become weak when exposed to harmful, incorrect or negative stimuli. They remain strong in the presence of positive or correct questions or substances. The concept is simple and works.
Lundstrom’s method does not require two people as is often taught. This method is done by oneself, using the fingers. Her method involves using both hands: Lightly touch the tip of your thumb on your left hand to the tip of your little finger on the same hand, forming a circle. Put the thumb and index finger of your right hand together. With the palm of the left hand facing you, put the right hand fingers into the circle of the left hand. Ask your question and then gently press the right hand fingers against the circle of the left hand. A “yes” answer should meet some resistance and the left-hand circle will stay closed. With a “no” answer, the muscles are weak and will not stay closed.
The Pendulum
The second tool Lundstrom describes is the pendulum. One needs a pendulum, which can easily be purchased at a health food store or jeweler. The pendulum consists of a chain of about five or six inches long with a pointed pendulum hanging from it, made from any material. Hold the chain in your thumb, index and middle fingers and let it swing freely. As with the kinesiology, this tool takes practice.
First, identify how the pendulum will respond to your yes or no questions. This may be different for each individual, so experiment with the simple questions to find the swing of the pendulum in response to your “yes” questions. This may be a circular motion, a side-to-side motion, or a back-and forth swing. Then test the swing of the pendulum in response to your “no” questions. Once that is clear, you can progress to asking questions about any food, book, or unknown information.
The Chits
The chits, or casting lots, is the third method. This one is simply throwing pieces of papers with yes, no, maybe, or other possible answers written on the identical pieces of paper. While this one is simpler to use, it is not always the preferred method for everyone. Similar to the I Ching but with specific answers, this requires no tool and only pieces of paper.

The RA Material, Part II
One of the significant concepts in this book, introduced in a previous post, is that we have two main choices in life. We are here to choose service to self or service to others. As humans, we have free will, leaving us the decision. All options are honored, without judgment. The positive alternative, however, is service to others.
Perhaps this is a good time in our history to look within and see which choice we have made. Is our life centered around others, or is our main focus on ourselves? This is a learning lesson. We can shift at any time and choose again. We can grow and evolve into a higher conscious being in this lifetime. We are in charge of our life and our decisions.

On Re-reading The RA Material
In the process of re-reading The RA Material, I am amazed at how much this information is impacting me even more than when I read it years ago. The book was published in 1984 and is channeled information from an entity called RA.
While I never trust all of any channeled information, I learn to trust my response to see how strongly the ideas resonate with me. This material seems fairly accurate, yet it also forces me to think, once again, beyond my comfort zone. Our early ancestral history continues to intrigue me.
Our role in evolving to another dimension fascinates me even more. Have any of you read this material, either in the past or recently? Does it feel right? Are we all learning "service to others" as the positive way to evolve to the next level. And what the heck will the 4th dimension or 4th density, as RA calls it, be like? I wonder, as I continue to believe that "service to others" is the right way to go.
