Questions on Handbook

I have a question, I have followed Bill and Kerry's work quite intently and can say that at least for me their efforts have provided me with better information to make sense of this jungle of esoterism, the occult and its intertwining relationships with the geo-socio-political backdrop.

I have not had a chance to fully immerse myself in Green's Handbook but as far as I can tell alot of the information does have its counterpart already laid out in Ra's The Law of One albeit sparing details on the specificity on the time that events will occur..in that respect I'd like to know if this uhhh..community requires that one espouse the material put forth in the Handbook or if it's rather about the cohesion of like minded individuals?
