# Intelligent energy

*The kinetic aspect of unity — the work produced when intelligent infinity (the potential) is tapped, its particular character shaped by a distortion of free will.*

## What Ra means

Ra draws the distinction between intelligent infinity and intelligent energy in terms of potential and kinetic. There is unity; that unity has both aspects. The potential is intelligent infinity — undifferentiated, without distortion. Tapping that potential yields work, and that work is what Ra calls intelligent energy (27.5.5-9). Its particular character at any given scale is determined by the specific distortion of free will that focuses it — so the intelligent energy of this Logos differs from that of another because of the choices made when free will first gave form to the creation.

A Logos uses intelligent energy to lay out the structure of its creation — setting the paths that promote the lessons of each density, given the conditions of the planetary spheres and sun bodies (19.12.3-5). Below the Logos, the sub-Logoi (the individual sun bodies) take that energy and use their own free will to co-create the nuances of the densities experienced by the beings within them (41.4.5-6). Intelligent energy is thus both the medium through which the Logos designs the creation and the substance through which sub-Logoi express their particular natures.

At the scale of the planetary cycles, Ra describes intelligent energy as the clockwork of evolution: the timing of the cycles is a measurement equal to a portion of intelligent energy, and the gateway from intelligent energy to intelligent infinity opens on that clock regardless of circumstance (9.4.7-10). Even the great harvest is not determined by readiness alone; the hour strikes, and the gateway opens.

## In Ra's words

Potential, kinetic, and the work of intelligent energy defined simply:

> This unity has a potential and kinetic. The potential is intelligent infinity. Tapping this potential will yield work. This work has been called by us, intelligent energy.
>
> The nature of this work is dependent upon the particular distortion of Free Will which, in turn, is the nature of a particular intelligent energy, or kinetic focus, of the potential of unity, or that which is all.

With the primal distortion of free will, each galaxy develops its own Logos and its own paths:

> 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.

The cycles as clockwork — the gateway opens on the striking of the hour:

> The timing of these cycles is a measurement equal to a portion of intelligent energy.
>
> This intelligent energy offers a type of clock. The cycles move as precisely as a clock strikes your hour. Thus, the gateway from intelligent energy to intelligent infinity opens regardless of circumstance on the striking of the hour.
