Writers Must Understand Evil

There are many creatives who also work as critics (Eisenstein, Truffaut, Bogdanovich) but the two realms remain separate in their work. They are substantially separate activities, even if they inform and inspire each other. 2. @16:33 there was material cut here where I make the connection between "possession" and "slavery" more explicit, including quotes from the Law of One. You just can't say it all in a 30 min video, folks. 3. @25:36, I mention Ra is "a devotee" of the service-to-others path, but this requires a bit of qualification, because they are 6th density and therefore are beyond polarization, but they clearly align with goodness more generally and walked the path of love throughout 4th and 5th density.
