In the novel, use of Substance D over an extended period can cause the user's consciousness to separate into two distinct parts. The drug also appears to facilitate the inducement of shared delusions, made manifest as folie à deux. The source of Substance D remains a mystery throughout most of the novel, though various theories are proposed. It is speculated that Substance D is imported from the U.S.S.R. as a Communist scheme to destroy American resistance to Communism; that it was sent to Earth by aliens intent on either enlightening mankind or reducing humans to a zombie-like slave race; that it is involved in a government or corporate plot. At the end of the book, we find out that Substance D is an organic substance, derived from little blue flowers that are grown on large plantations, hidden between rows of corn as cover. Ironically, the drug is harvested by the brainwashed inmates of Substance D drug rehabilitation centers who are suffering from neurocognitive deficits as a result of their drug addiction.
Philip K. Dick also gives the name of the species of the flower, which helps to show the relevant meaning of the story and the nature of both the drug and the character's struggle. The name is Mors ontologica,[3] which translates as "ontological death", that is, "death of being".

In WWII when German Freemasons were being led to their deaths at the order of Hitler, some lodges traded their Masonic lapel pins for blue forget-me-nots.
Today the blue forget-me-not is a symbol to Freemasons in remembrance of the 80,000 that were killed by the Nazis.
Indigenous to where?
There seems to be some goal post shifting going on. Is it a 'belief'? An 'interpretation'? Or as now seems to be the case a cold-hard-fact?
Or perhaps, given your current situation and disbandment, you are grasping at the same myths that those who are seeking direction cling to?
Although I may seem to be picking fault, I simply seek a little clarity.
If you know the source of those myths or can shed any further light on their origin it would help to compose a clearer picture.
So you're looking and waiting presumably. Given your disbandment, how do you propose to help said individual? Obviously, I don't wish for specifics but it seems a fair question, are you and your compatriots in any position to aid this person?
Presumably, if you are looking for them, so are the Remanents? Wouldn't that individual require significant protection?

Since I was speaking of sheepherding in a prior post, I have to ask that if in fact it has never been wrong, could it be because it subtlely guides events on a planetary scale to a predetermined end, perhaps by giving you, the Shards, specific instructions or even through means that I should not be able to fathom?
Is the Lumen ab Verum actually more than a piece of technology but instead a living being or something containing a living being, though perhaps profoundly more alive than we mere simians would normally consider? My opinion from what has been said about it is that it exhibits behavior like that of a living entity.
Is the Lumen ab Verum accessible remotely by those individuals with whom the 'technology' is RNA-compatible?
So my question is "why" this Lumen Ab Verum refers to Ra

I understand your statement, I just fail to see how such an individual would be subseptable to the same "weight" that the rest of humanity would feel.
All, and none of the above; it depends on point of view. We know this individual exists, the only debate (internally) has been whether this individual whom will change things, is external or internal to humanity. Whether we must seek him out, or he will seek us out. There are few disagreements among Illuminons, but this is one of them. The Enlightened Ones do not do anything without purpose.
Or perhaps you are the one clinging to myths; myths of weakness?
I cling to nothing but my purpose; I will overlook any intended or unintended insult.
Although I may seem to be picking fault, I simply seek a little clarity.
Knowledge is power.
Presumably, if you are looking for them, so are the Remanents? Wouldn't that individual require significant protection?

Firstly I want to say welcome to the thread, your insight is always welcome. Sometimes I feel when it comes to this thread we are a bunch of blind children trying to find there way in a dark dark room.
If you are Maban, know Maban, if you are part of his organization in my opinion it doesn't matter. What's important is we have some guide into this subject, so thank you.
Now to my question:
I know this has been asked before when Maban was here but it was brought up again. The return of the "Enlightened Ones" and the talk of helping an individual when the time is right seems to align with "End time" prophecy which many Christians follow and believe. Being raised Christian I can't help but see a connection, or a similar story to what I've read in the book of Revelations. It seems that this individual in the minds of many Christians could be seen as whats referred as the "Anti-Christ". Are there any parallels?

4.) Do you think you can disclose to us a little bit more of what the Lumen ab Verum says about "The One"?
I just ask because I have some suspicions about who this person might be and how he will rise and I want to find out if your "records" speak about that person.
So do you think you can tell us a little bit more about this individuals origins, how he will rise, and why you think he might be an enlightened one or else why not?
Does the lumen ab verum also speak about other "minor" individuals (or another "minor" individual) who will also rise someday in the future, or maybe even about someone greater than "the one".
Is "the one" the same person maban mentioned earlier, whom he has allegedly found and who speaks as if he were a member of the shards although he may not even know about you and who would become an obstacle against darkness in the next few years? Is this Mabans personal interpretation/identification of "the one" or did he speak about a totaly different individual?
I know you were directing these at Kvasir but I wanted to help out where possible. I don't believe "the one" has fully realized his/her destiny yet. Maban felt that the next 50 to 70 years would be a critical time for humanity and that perhaps those of us who live that long will be able to experience the full impact of it.

RNA-Compatible?! Where did that come from?
The [key] is not something to be "figured out". It is either something you possess or you do not. So you are either able to use their technology, or not; it is as simple as that.
No remote viewing, nothing that fantastic The Lumen ab Verum interacts with individuals via a sort of holographic interface, typically.
In some special instances it allows for the spontaneous neural upload of information (i.e. language). This process is done through a resequncing of RNA and thus DNA which effects genetic memory (and even possible IFF) and enhancement of intrinsic abilities; that is all.

I had some strange feeling you'd be posting on this thread again today and I wasn't disappointed.
All I can suggest is to read carefully.

In short, Maban had said that unless a person possessed specific initial RNA sequences, use of the Lumen ab Verum for resequencing was not possible.
Perhaps I misunderstood Maban. Later I believe he mentioned "purity of heart" as a key to even get near the thing.
In other words, could it cause or contribute to a widespread consciousness shift in certain individuals?
