Octave
The complete cycle of seven densities that together form one creation, named by analogy to a musical octave.
What Ra means
Ra introduces density as a mathematical term and reaches immediately for music as the closest analogy: after seven notes the eighth begins a new octave, and the entire structure of creation follows the same pattern — seven densities, each holding seven sub-densities, nested further without limit (). The word "octave" thus names both the organizing principle and the total span of a single creation.
The eighth density sits at the boundary. It functions as the completion of the current octave and, in its latter stages, as the first density of the next (). Ra calls this culmination point both omega and alpha: all spiritual mass converges into a single Creative source, which then generates a new Logos carrying everything the Creator has experienced of itself into a fresh creation (). Each octave, in other words, begins with the harvest of the previous one.
Ra knows very little across this boundary. Ra's teachers have described something of seventh density, but the octave to come remains mysterious (). What is known is that at the start of each new octave the Logos inherits a set of gathered concepts from its predecessor — including the structures of mind, body, and spirit — and begins again from there ().
In Ra's words
The musical analogy for density, with seven sub-densities within each density, infinitely nested:
The term density is a, what you would call, mathematical one. The closest analogy is that of music, whereby after seven notes on your western type of scale, if you will, the eighth note begins a new octave. Within your great octave of existence which we share with you, there are seven octaves or densities. Within each density there are seven sub-densities. Within each sub-density, seven sub-sub-densities, and so on infinitely.
The eighth density as both ending and new beginning — the octave boundary:
This will be the last full query of this working.
This octave density of which we have spoken is both omega and alpha, the spiritual mass of the infinite universes becoming one Central Sun, or Creator, once again. Then is born a new universe, a new infinity, a new Logos which incorporates all that the Creator has experienced of Itself. In this new octave there are also those who wander. We know very little across the boundary of octave except that these beings come to aid our octave in its Logos completion.
What each new octave inherits from the one before:
At the beginning of this creation or, as you may call it, octave, there were those things known which were the harvest of the preceding octave. About the preceding creation we know as little as we do of the octave to come. However, we are aware of those pieces of gathered concept which were the tools which the Creator had in the knowing of the self.
