Finding Yourself

[Lighthead]

Tan.rar :
Power, self-control, dominance in life. The negative path isn't about pleasing the self, it's about perfecting the self, it's about rising to the top. It's about becoming the Creator exclusively, without others. In that, the negative enjoys much wisdom, cleverness and influence.

At the expense of others – the element through which it qualifies as the «negative» path.

Lighthead :
How is there competition on the positive path? I can see it on a distorted positive path. Maybe that's what you're referring to.

Tan.rar :
In negative, competition is always for the empowerment of one. In positive, it is for both or many.

My understanding is :
«negative» ''completion is achieved at the others expense. «positive» completion is arrived at one's own personal expense which benefits  ALL.
 
What I personally misunderstand is how the «negative» path equally benefits ALL... in the whole picture.  I resist the explanation that it is ''called'' for and desired.  It is not logical that anyone ''desires'' the consequences of negative behaviour.

The experience of the ''negative'' path is a tool for learning, that is the only validity I can ascribe to it, it's sole purpose in the bigger picture.

I'm still just an "aspirant" as Tan.rar mentioned, but let me see if I can unpack this for you. Somebody on the negative path doesn't necessarily not help others. If that person has to help you to reach their goal, then there is almost no doubt that they would. For example, let's say that it is the negative entity's purpose to perfect its own wisdom. If sharing their own wisdom with others helps them achieve this goal, then there is a greater than average chance that the negative entity would do this. The only difference is the intent. The entity on the negative path doesn't delude themselves into thinking that their end goal is to help others more than they want to help themselves. I'm not saying that all on the positive path do this, but I would say that the ones that deny themselves the reality that they have a preference for the negative path most probably do.

As far as the purpose of the negative path in the bigger picture, this whole reality of this octave benefits from there being a negative path. If it weren't for the negative path, 3D would be dull and practically lifeless. There would be almost no motivation for 3D entities to advance further. There would be almost no motivation to progress, make the choice and go beyond that.
