Polarity

[Siren]

If service-to-self behavior provides service to others and service-to-others is ultimately self-serving, then how is it ever possible to achieve a grade of +51% service-to-others or +95% service-to-self?

My practice consists of absorbing then radiating love and light to all - afterall, how can you absorb forever or radiate forever? Isn't that akin to inhaling forever or exhaling forever?

I totally get what you're saying because I see it the same way myself. Forget the percentages and the concepts of STO and STS altogether, or the radiant and absorbent analogies (after all, isn't the Creator both radiant and absorbent in Its creative fluxes too, as it breathes out and unfolds the Creation and breathes it in and folds back all into Itself again? Remember, the ultimate gravity well is a black hole—an inwardly turned star that absorbs rather than radiates). Look at it this way, in relation to the mind/body/spirit complex and its relationship with the rest of Creation:

Prior to the veiling experiment the only service that could be contemplated was service to One/Self/All There Is. There was no "polarity" as such since a «polarity», by its very definition, requires two opposite poles to be functional (I mean, you can't have a one-sided magnet—polarity implies two ends by definition).

After the veil, however, the polarity game emerged; a dual way of seeking, and thus serving the Creator. The simplest way to see it, in my humble subjective opinion, is that the negative polarity seeks to serve and glorify the micro-cosmic self to the utmost (this at the expense of subduing other-selves in the process), whereas the positive polarity seeks to serve and glorify the macro-cosmic self (this explains the bias towards serving other-selves, sometimes even to the extent of martyrdom).

This allows an unimaginable richness of experience as the dynamic tension between positive and negative offers immense learning opportunities for the Creator. Eventually, at some point in the dance, the negative pole must meet the positive and vice versa, and thus reconcile the duality: the positive must integrate the negative and the negative must allow itself to be integrated into unity.

Ra spoke of a positive wanderer who incarnated on Venus during his third density cycle and, in the desire to serving others, found the so-called negative path to be more fruitful for this purpose. This entity was then harvested in a negative orientation. If this entity did this to serve others, how was this entity harvest-able in such a way?

The entity's original intention prior to incarnation was to polarize positively, not negatively. However, take into account the the veil of forgetting in Venus' 3rd density. Over the course of its lifetime(s) the entity was assaulted by various catalysts which it chose to use to polarize itself negatively and thus achieve graduation in like manner.

The veil of forgetting is a very interesting phenomenon.
