…”In the spectrum of BEIng, some may choose to surround themselves with light, while many others will choose to surround themselves in darkness, either way IT all stems from our choice. When we do not know what we want, our unconscious mind will make these decisions for us, whispering thoughts from our conditioned past, which keeps us limited within cycles of darkness. Surrounded by darkness, some may feel empowered by the rush, but their care is only for themselves, as a worship of ego can become like a religion for some, which is just like worshiping a myth or a ghost. They may create a strong ‘image’ of the self, but they lack the art of relationship and integration, for without that, One can only do so much alone. As the legendary philosopher Lao Tzu wrote in the Tao Te Ching:
‘Tao gives birth to one,
One gives birth to two,
Two gives birth to three,
Three gives birth to ten thousand beings.
Ten thousand beings carry yin on their backs
and embrace yang in their front,
Blending these two vital breaths to attain harmony.’
As this is the main problem with the western ego mind in general, for they have split themselves in two, and have allowed the unconscious darkness to flow and work through themselves UN-noticed. Think of the light that comes from the sun, as IT is always shining upon us, both day and night, just because we cannot see the sun at night does not mean that IT is not there radiating upon our heart and spirit. Same goes for our inner life, just because the light within is not visible for some, does not mean that IT does not exist, for just shifting our ‘I’ to EYE, flips the polarity and returns our crystal clear vision! This clarity shows us that our true essence is carried within the wind, thus why when we meditate, we should refocus on our breath. With each inhale allows for the expansion of our spirit, just as the angels fly because they take themselves lightly, and with each exhale is the release and surrender, as we must recognize that darkness does not last forever. For no matter how much darkness there is, no matter how dark it may BE, the sun will always come up again beyond the event horizon!
IT is only through this balance that we can gain wisdom and understanding of the full spectrum of BEing, for we should not forget that life is rhythm and pulsation, which is ALL vibration and energy. The secrets of the Universe are revealed to those that learn how to merge with this streaming flow, for the time has come for us to re-integrate and join in this rhythm and dance called life, as we re-discover what IT means to truly BE Alive!” ~
