Nevertheless, since we do not have reliable, ongoing, clear access to observing the substrate on its own terms, we use the illusion as a kind of analog to it, going off feeling and analysis. Polarity is a way of thinking about it that allows us to work with the phenomenon of energy expenditure imperfectly but tractably and vividly. Another way of conceiving of all of this: it's a way to intellectually justify the need to abandon the intellect as the primary tool.
Okay, I think I follow you. I think you're saying, this is the best way I can grope towards the concept, being unable to see it, unable to feel it. Ja?
I'm coming at this from a different angle. I agree that the approach is oblique--by design--and I would add this much more: one can become accustomed to working this way (obliquely) and thereby get a feel for what polarity (I'm referring specifically to spiritual charge, energetic capacity to do work) feels like.
It might be compared to a musician who learns to find her way around the guitar without looking at her hands, and then can begin to also sense other musicians as they move along their instruments. There is an oblique, intuitive connection. Dancers often feel this. As a clockmaker/watchmaker, I can assess a great deal of a person's skill just by observing them handling tweezers. I see their poise, their attention level, etc. There is a similar gestalt when observing someone communing with whiskey or a cigar. One can feel the vibes of their aesthetic experience, if you are attuned to such things. In my experience, there is a similar way with polarity, although it is more complex because you're dealing there not just with physical and emotional ability, but also with the spiritual capacity to do work. It's all there, it just takes some training to discern the various layers of information and understand their relationships.
In my case, I have no great interest in assessing other people in this manner, but have picked up on the skill somewhat--in an oblique sort of a way--in service to the purification of my energetic instrument.
