rachel,

/*\ Namaste :-}}

- all One?? that is, of course, a Great Question - One, presumably not being knowable before enLightenment

>:-}}

- so, "if they are all one" then we certainly cannot espouse polarity above anything else

- but, even in the physical world there are imbalances - but that is another post

- take for example: in Samsara (on earth) matter is made up of atoms (which are, of course composed of yet smaller constituents)

- yet, at the atomic level we have: protons (+), electrons (-), and neutrons (0)

- though it may be traditional to view this as a "two-pole" system, the existence of the neurton body affects the whole - thus polarity is a myth -

- in the case of the atom perhaps "trilarity"??

>:-}}

- yes, we must each find "what seems true for us" - at the Moment - but in so seeking we must also attend to the nature of Samsara - Illusion

- Compassion?? by all means

>:-}}

Reiki all around,

all blessings,

Firekeeper
