4/6 Reflector PLL-DLR

September 2017

Jim Carrey explains

“As an actor you play characters, and then, if you go deep enough into those characters you realize that your own character is pretty thin to begin with.

And then you suddenly have this separation and go: “Well who is Jim Carrey?”

“Oh he doesn’t exist actually.”

There’s just a relative manifestation of consciousness “appearing” and then someone gave him a bunch of ideas. They gave him a name, a religion, and a nationality.

And he clustered those together into something that is supposed to be a personality.” – Jim Carrey

From what I have observed…

“…the Personality is not the same thing as the passenger. The Personality is who I think I am, filtered through the mind (Ra’s definition).

We have a binary consciousness; there is the potential to observe both the design consciousness frequency of the form, and the personality consciousness frequency of the mind. We are held together in the illusion of our separateness…That which observes the body/mind vehicle is the passenger, the eternal Personality Crystal.

As long as I am identified – ‘me’ as the Personality, or ‘me’ as the vehicle, or the idea of ‘me’ as the passenger – I am missing half of the movie. Learning to observe, to be the witness to what life brings is a moment by moment experiment in being aware.”- Leela Swann-Herbert

Ra’s Words of Wisdom – The Reflector

“When it comes to Reflectors, they’re something quite different after all. They really are. Not just that they are a large minority, but they are different with a very different cycle, a lunar cycle. But the most important thing for a Reflector is to understand its relationship to the program. And you can see thematically in non-energy Types that living their Design actually means studying in many ways, being educated in their Design. Whereas living the Design for the energy Types is something that is there to be leapt into instantaneously and immediately, because it’s possible.

There is a different way in which the process works. You know the story of the tortoise and the hare, because it’s one of those cute stories. You have what appears to be the energy Types racing ahead, racing into living out their Design. But in fact, we’re all on a seven-year cycle. And though it looks like the energy Types race ahead in the end everybody gets there at the same time, it’s a seven-year cycle.

The entering in for the Projector is a different process, that’s all, or for the Reflector, a different process, a different way in which they need to enter into living their Design, which means not so much living their Design, but being focused on understanding, knowing, making sense of Design in others. And for the Reflector, to understand the deep impact of the program, of the planets, specially of the moon, of the way in which they are conditioned by the general programming field and how they have a special gift of connecting to it and to be able to see their life lived in the harmony of their relationship to the turning of the wheel.

But everything having to do with the legitimacy of involvement in this knowledge is just simply living it. And whether that means the active principle that is there in the energy Type, or the passive principle that is there in the non-energy Types, it is the same thing. It is about the commitment to the process. This is what brings transformation and it brings something much more important. That is, I have a number of goals as a teacher. One of them is to take the burden off of the shoulders of those beings who meet this knowledge because I think at the very simplest level, at the very rudimentary level of understanding your Design, it already helps you release yourself from so many burdens you have carried. And it’s a great service that it does.

Weirdos in the mail:

Weirdo: Dear Mr. Pretends-To-Be-Certain, Do people also often tell you that you’re an asshole that easily gets stuck in your own very narrow and rigid way of seeing? Your childish need to be an authority and put others down? That you’re terrible at looking in the mirror of your own hypocrisy and judgments? I’m not into passive aggressively making wall posts intended for individuals, so I though I should offer you the honor of direct contact.

Free-Way Switch

3X3-05 or Free-Way Ultra.
6 Position switching but with an amazing 28 terminal connections for creating the most sophisticated circuits. Each of the 6 positions is accessible and can have almost any pickup arrangement you choose! The Free-Way Ultra enables pickups (or coils) to be connected in series, in parallel and out of phase with each other so that complex switching functions can be performed all in one place. The Free-Way Ultra looks and operates exactly like the other models and, measuring 35mm in diameter, it is still very compact and retro-fittable into most guitars. Available in Nickel and Gold finishes.

Free-Way Key Features: An entirely new dimension in guitar pickup selection and new potential for other applications.
High Quality Materials: The solid construction of stainless steel metalwork, gold plated terminals and glass-filled nylon mouldings has been endurance tested beyond 1 million operations.
Positive Index Positional Control: Providing a distinct switching action for fast intuitive changes between positions.
Expansive Pickup Configurations: Vast tonal flexibility from a single control. Coil-split, 3 pickup, piezo, series, phase parallel, HSH, HSS, SSS and many more custom schemes. Almost infinite possibilities.
Multiple Gold Plated Solder Pad Terminations: Making installation easy and eliminating noise from mechanical construction.
Compact, Concentric Design: Fits directly into 35mm diameter cavity for retro-fit into Les Paul style guitars.
Standard Toggle Tip: Available in black or cream, making it visually indistinguishable from a traditional 3 way toggle switch.

Boss FV-50L Volume Pedal

The BOSS FV-50L is light and compact stereo foot volume of low input impedance, therefore can be effectively used for a low impedance unit such as a keyboard or an effect, or between Pre-Amp and Power-Amp through the Effects Send-Return on a Tube Amp or Combo.

(The high-impedance FV-50H is designed to be directly connected with a high impedance unit such as a guitar before the pre-amp or normal input.)

The Minimum Volume allows you to set the lowest volume at any level you like, thereby freely set the minimum effect of the pedal depending on the type of performance you are aiming at.

Also, it features the Tuner Out Jack for quick and easy tuning during live performance. Convenient Tuner Out jack enables speedy tuning on stage. Connectors: Input x 2, Output x 2, Tuner Out.
