Probably just had the best meditation of my life. Stemmed from some issues dealing with my place in society, how i could be of use/service to others. my heart chakra eventually opened along with a strong energy in my sexual/creative chakra, and as this concept came to mind, my head was uncontrollably shaking, only mildly when i focused on breathing. I apologize for the length, but I am trying to figure out the blockage I have in the upper chakras.
Ahem..
consider the responsibilities of the parent. the child does not understand the external world as we do, there is much in nature that we fear instinctually as it is harmful to our bodies. one of the first things we learn through fear, rather, respect from the authority watching us, is DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE. it may seem unfair to the innocently curious mind of a child, but it is out of LOVE that the person lays down the law, for that one already has the experience of pain/suffering of what fire does to the body. the parent was dominating or asserting its SELF on another to protect. the child must submit as a result. free will nullified in this instance, but for the best.
now hear me out. this dualistic principle is also imprinted on nature itself. we do not dominate nature, it dominates us. there are natural rules that we must live by and with without choice (gravity, electromagnetism, etc.) and in our rebellion against this natural order, we fight rather than accept its rule and try to dominate it (wars for land/resources/plundering the earth). this is most unnatural, as nature ALSO has a natural submissive aspect, NOT the fake submission we see, like taking it by force, and manipulating their bodies for our use, but metaphysically; it is consciousness, and consciousness has both light and dark qualities, positive and negative, dominative and submissive, which flow with circumstances and its energies.
back to the child wanting to play with fire. he knows no fear, he wants to play with everything, but the fire won't let him because he doesn't consciously know what fire really is. the fire then is not fully respected and will not submit to his consciousness, leaving the child submissive to its elementary nature, a burn/pain/suffering. natural order, as we understand it, then, stays put. HOWEVER, to bypass this order, our self must consciously understand what it is about us that loves both domination (assertion of will) and submission (willingness to consent/agreeance.)
To live in a world without fear, or rather without respect for what everything truly is, seems peaceful at first impression. consider edenic living conditions. nothing hurts, food is freely available, and you can wander without fear of anything ending, say, your life. thomas jefferson said "i cannot live without books." what is reading to one in edenic paradise? reading itself is delving into one's account of experience to fill a void of knowledge not yet discovered by the reader. to read in a place void of fear is a paradox. one must know one's ignorance, thus knowledgable of knowledge itself, to even have a desire to read or experience another's thoughts and life. one could postulate then that communication has dual properties as well, the written word (dark) and the oral word (light). both are valid forms and both have properties that the other cannot match.
for us who know the LOO, harvest comes to mind. whether or not we fall into a STO orientation (light) or STS (dark). we also know that the indigo ray is a unity that transcends these polarities, amalgamating love and wisdom with a perspective that sees love in both. so when I say that you must love and accept your self before you can effectively and truly love another, i want you to know that it is because i love you those who strive for light and wish it for others, because i can only TRULY feel that love when i know that I am worthy of it. self-acceptance breeds faith in oneself so that whatever comes that cannot be controlled, the future, you will respond most resoundingly with love.
“Enlightenment is not imagining figures of light but making the darkness conscious.” "The kingdom of God is within." God is loving because he wants us to grow up to be respectable by his standards. To reach that respect, one must recognize fear is the base of our understanding and cannot be wished away; it must be embraced.
Male/dominative/light = creation/will
Female/submissive/dark = receiving in agreeance
We are all submissive to God because we accepted this gift of life pre-incarnation. We forgot this unity, and because of it, we are also submissive to the earth in which we are formed. We feel bound by the rules of the earth, and thus, in our anger in forgetting, we exploit and destroy it. The peaceful solution and key to harmony is remembering how to contact the intelligent energy within, say, a chair, which I see as possible through the recognition and respect of the energy it is comprised of, and gracefully assert our conscious willpower on it.
I say this is essential to harmony because TK, I believe, is a stepping stone to erasing the need for manual labor, and thus, hierarchy.
i remember the question. what is in the instinct to dominate/assert? or rather, create? God created others to love the life he knows, (light) but also so that one day he would submit/fear/respect us as other Gods, since we are children with sparks of Him within us.
I laugh and enjoy good company, myself. I believe God does too. We just have a long way to go.
