<blockquote class="definition">'''Stage Six''' Reconnection is the penultimate stage of a planet's evolutionary process. It occurs when a planet's economic and administrative expertise evolves to the point where planetary systems of government become possible. At that point, [[Healing]] and [[Reconnection]] processes are initiated and the planet begins to move towards reconnection and [[Graduation]].

==Notes==

Stage six is marked by the evolution of advanced communication systems. When communication systems have developed sufficiently to enable planetary administration, global awakening is initiated.

Stage six is considered complete when a planet's [[Pinnacle Species]] establishes a peaceful global government that unifies the planet's people and devotes itself to full satisfaction of the [[Seven Essential Needs]], rather than greedy accumulation.

Once stage six is complete, a planet can move on to [[Stage Seven]].

Two main challenges mark the penultimate stage of planetary evolution.

The number one challenge is healing the damage done to the [[Physical Unit]] by [[Toxic Socialization]] during [[Stage Five]] in order that the species might collectively re[[Connect]]. Stanislav Grof clues into this in his article "Technologies of the Sacred - Part Three" where he discusses [[Connection Experience]] as an important tool to help heal the planet.<ref>Stanislav, Grof. “Technologies of the Sacred, Part Three.” The International Journal of Humanities and Peace 19, no. 1 (2003): 104. https://www.lightningpath.org/readings/Technologies_of_the_sacred_III.pdf</ref>

The number two challenge is overcoming violent and desperate resistance to peaceful unification of a planet's people from those who benefit financially and politically from the [[Stage Five]] economic [[System]]

'''Stages of Awakening.''' Stage Six is broken down into three distinct "stages of awakening." Stage One completed 2016, Stage Two completes approximately 2025. Stage Three completes when a 9/10ths majority is firmly on the path to healing and reconnection. Note that Stage Three awakening requires a fundamental revision of this planet's economic system, a revision that facilitates a fair redistribution of wealth.

This planet's communication boom began at the turn of the 21st century, with the confluence of internet-based communication technologies, and the spread of cheap transmitting and receiving devices.

A fully developed planetary communication system is a pre-requisite of [[Graduation]]

==Notes==

Ideological institutions may be subdivided into esoteric and exoteric institutions, and religious and secular institutions. Exoteric organizations include religious organizations like the exoteric Catholic Church and secular organizations like the Hollywood movie industry, the mainstream news and music industries, and so on. Esoteric ideological institutions include religious organizations like Freemasonry, the Golden Dawn, the Skull and Bones, and so on, as well as secular ideological institutions like the Bilderberg group. Esoteric institutions convey specially flavoured Zoroastrian archetypes to those who are already members of the accumulating classes, to those who show promise, and to those who may be perceived as threats.<ref>Sosteric, Mike. “From Zoroaster to Star Wars, Jesus to Marx: The Art, Science, and Technology of Human Manipulation,” Unpublished. https://www.academia.edu/34504691.</ref>

Although Ruyle is the inspiration for this term, he does not use the term ideological institution, instead tagging the ''church'' as the institution which controls the minds of the exploited population. "There is the church as an "organization which controls access to the sacred and supernatural and is thereby able to control the minds of the exploited population." ,<ref>Ruyle, Eugene E. “Mode of Production and Mode of Exploitation: The Mechanical and the Dialectical.” Dialectical Anthropology 1, no. 1 (1975): 7–23. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf00244565. p. 12.</ref> However, as outlined in the article "From Zoroaster to Star Wars," many other institutions are implicated in controlling the minds of the exploitive masses. <ref>Sosteric, Mike. “From Zoroaster to Star Wars, Jesus to Marx: The Art, Science, and Technology of Human Manipulation,” Unpublished. https://www.academia.edu/34504691</ref>, many other institutions are involved in controlling the minds of the exploited masses.

<blockquote>In capitalist societies, education, whether secular or religious, the teaching of moral reflexes handed down from father to son, the exemplary integrity of workers decorated after fifty years of loyal and faithful service, the fostering of love for harmony and wisdom, those aesthetic forms of respect for the status quo, instill in the exploited a mood of submission and inhibition which considerably eases the task of the agents of law and order. In capitalist countries a multitude of sermonizers, counselors, and "confusion-mongers" intervene between the exploited and the authorities.<ref>Fanon, Frantz. The Wretched of the Earth. New York: Grove Press, 1963.</ref></blockquote>

Ideological Institutions create/reproduce and disseminate [[Creation Template]]s.

Perfection

<blockquote class="definition">
On the [[LP]], '''Perfection''' is a word used to describe a state of existence whereby an individual is fully [[Alignment|aligned]], fully [[Activated]], and consequently perfectly and permanently [[Connected]] to their own [[Spiritual Ego]]. When one has perfected the [[Physical Unit]], one is capable of strong, pure, and persistance [[Connection]].

[[Perfection]] > {{#ask:[[Is a related LP term::Perfection]]}}

==Notes==

Perfection is the outcome of [[Healing]], [[Alignment]], and the practice and refinement of [[Connection]] the occurs over the course of many repeated [[Connection Experiences]].

Perfection is a goal of Yoga.<ref>Vivekananda, Swami. “The Powers of the Mind.” ''Collected Works of Swami Vivekananda''. Vol. 1. 9 vols. Advaita Ashrama, 2016. <nowiki>https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/SWAMI-VIVEKANANDA-COMPLETE-WORKS-Vol-1.pdf</nowiki></ref>

The [[LP]] [[Connection Framework]] provides a rubric for thinking about and practicing the requirements of aligned connection.

"In treading the Path, the Sufi ascends until perfection is reached, and in the perfect sain, God and [individual ego] become one again. Abd Al-Kaim Jili <ref>Margaret Smith, Readings from the Mystics of Islam (Westport, CT: PIR Publications, 1994), https://amzn.to/2MdrfqB</ref>

The "perfect man" is a concept in Islam referring to someone who has "purified" the self from ailments, complexes, ignorance, deviations, etc. <ref>Mutahhari, Murtadha. Perfect Man. Translated by Dr. Alaedin Pazargadi. Iran: Bethat Islamic Research Center, Unknown. https://www.al-islam.org/perfect-man-murtadha-mutahhari.</ref>

In Christianity, the concept of ''perfection'' refers mostly to alignment.

[[Maria Sabina]], a Mazatac [[Wise One]]/Shaman, after many years of connection practice, claims perfection. "I had attained perfection. I was no longer a simple apprentice. For that, as a prize, as a nomination, the Book had been granted me. When one takes the ''saint children'', one can see the [[Principal Ones]]. Otherwise not.<ref>Maria Sabina quoted in Estrada, Alvaro. Maria Sabina: Her Life and Chants. Translated by Henry Munn. Santa Barbara, California: Ross-Erikson, 1981. p. 47.</ref>

In esoteric and exoteric religious traditions, the notion of perfection is often corrupted and cast as part of the [[Fool in School]] archetype, which says we need to suffer, meet challenge, and learn lessons in order to achieve perfection. "...perfection is indeed the goal of every human life but that it may take many lifetimes to achieve...Failing to reach full realization in this life doesn't damn you to perdition; it simply means you'll have to come back again and again until you get it right."<ref>Smoley, Richard, and Jay Kinney. Hidden Wisdom: A Guide to Western Inner Traditions. Illinois: Quest Books, 2006.</ref>

Representatives of [[Colonized Spirituality]] often suggest that only “the chosen few” are able to, or worthy enough, to make this type of realization/connection.

"There have been religious geniuses in all ages and in | all countries, who have had experiences of spiritual expansion. They have been made aware of a Realm of Reality on a higher level than that revealed through their senses. They have sometimes felt invaded by the inrush of larger Life; sometimes they have seemed to push a door inward into a larger range of being, with vastly heightened energy. The experience is, as we have seen, always one of joy and rapture ; in fact, it is probably the highest joy a mortal ever feels.<ref>Jones, Rufus. Studied in Mystical Religion.
