Thus, "service" does NOT mean being a servant to false identities. Whether they belong to the "self" or "other" is irrelevant. In the context of the Law of One, service does not mean taking orders from people's egos. Including your own.
Service refers to "what it is" that one is serving. This is not the recipient of the serving, but that which is being served. As in, what are you serving for dinner?
Who you are serving for dinner is irrelevant in the context of the Law of One, since there is only one of us here anyway.
There is no difference between them thus the real choice is not to make a choice between them. The real choice is to look at the choice and go "huh, so thats what its about" and go do something nice with the time you have, preferably with people you like, and stuff that you like to do.
Kinda like "no one wants to improve, so dont, improve by being more of yourself every day, not by becoming more of something every day"
It is diffuclt to explain at the moment as i would nto say i am in the "best mindset" for explaining anything. But....
Kinda like what you're supposed to aim for isnt 99% sto and 1% sts but more like as indifferent to the whole concept as possible, while on the side of STO. Sort of kinda "know enough to hit the harvest when that time comes / that time is, but beyond that, dont fret, and also, remember to get off the spiritual treadmill"
