Not to divert too much from the topic of negative greeting, but would you mind expanding on your comment about no longer caring about STS/STO polarity? Do you choose not to focus on it, while still acknowledging it's there, or is it more of a disbelief in polarity altogether? I'm interested because I too can see myself heading in this direction in some ways.
Hey, not a problem! Threads seem to diverge a bit, no matter the subject. I posted this up for anyone who has a problem with the whole negative side of life in general.
I do believe and acknowledge that the STS/STO paths exist, and that it has everything to do with [compassion for self/infringing on others free will] and [compassion for others/respect for free will], as the central foci of each path. I HIGHLY value the perspective of Oneness however, because ultimately this is what I believe is the only real truth, as it's put by Ra/Q'uo/etc...that the only real thing is oneness in infinity, and that all other things/concepts are illusion, free will being the least distorted "thing."
I must say however, that I do hold compassion for other selves and creations many wonders as I encounter them, to varying degrees of course, depending on how hard it is to feel that emotion in any given circumstance. I try to stay respectful and compassionate to all, while offering little advice (outside of these forums, where the Law of One is more or less unheard of) so as not to mess up someone's searching. I realize that a simple sentence of advice can get someone obsessed with a concept to a point where that's all they think about, and end up becoming sidetracked or depressed, which is not my intent. It's tricky to say the least, so I end up just listening a whole lot more than speaking (even here, where I read a whole lot more than I post).
Hold on a sec, Turtle. I don't see a distinction between your point of view and STO. Simply trying to more closely resemble the Original Vibration is STO, right? Isn't that why some people teach, some work in soup kitchens on & on. If other selves are selves (so to speak) then I can't tell what the difference is. (Please help.)
Okay, then about the topic of the thread...anyone remember? I'm also glad you threw that out there for folks who might be concerned about that stuff. My experience is that the more you can put one hand (as it were) on the purest part of your own spirit and connect yourself with that, the less you can be intimidated or frightened into accepting greetings from creepy entities. Prior to developing the surity of self to be able to do that, I would recommend asking for it, searching for it. It's an inherent treasure of enormous value.
