HIGHER SELF/EGO...YIN/YANG...NIGHT/DAY

THE CONCEPTS OF DUALITY

The Universe in Its Wisdom, created Duality. From the initial BIG BANG, Cosmic Law, the Law of Relativity, Dark Energy and Dark Matter were created. All of the Natural Laws of Physics were laid down in a nanno second as the Universe began to expand into infinity. Dark Energy and Dark Matter being the last two real Mysteries. In that moment, the Law of Duality was also born.

In my thinking, Dark Matter became the "Stuff" of life and over billions of years attracted other matter to itself which became the first organisms of our Universe. In order to have Life and continue the Principles of Duality, from Dark Energy came the "Spirit" for Life. In the Principle of Duality, all things have an opposite or an equally opposing Force so that all things may be known. A singular thing has no real basis of understanding without its opposite or components of opposition by which to be understood.

Since I am not a scientist nor am I a physicist, it is the Spiritual Duality of which I write today. In the beginning, Spirit was a single Force. The Singularity of Spirit in its simplest form can still be viewed today in the lower animal and plant kingdom where Duality is insignificant however, within the Human Species, Singularity was a non-starter! As evolution would have it and as soon as man became Self Aware, the Duality occurred. Spirit, by Nature was One Thing, created of the Dark Energy and fully sufficient to serve Mankind but did not serve Evolution. It was at this time, that once again, The Universe in Its Wisdom, created Duality for Humankind. 

Spirit was, at this time, divided into two parts. This has been written about by many, so I will only touch on my beliefs here, but at the time of Creation we were whole and Singular, Evolution changed us to need an Opposite so Energy was split into two forms. Hence the concept of a "Soul Mate". IT is my understanding after years of study, that the Soul Mate is NOT our Lifetime Love! While this can happen, Its Opposite standing most often would end in tragedy! Our Soul Mate is an opposite entity of Self. Since the separation at the Spiritual Level, two different Journeys  begin in order to have a broader understanding of Life and Living. Upon return to Spirit, then there is a reunion of Singular lives and comparisons to experience shared. 

I know this will cause some confusion, as the New Age has done this to so many. There is NO Soul Mate that is your Life Mate, you are opposites and have completely differing view points, likes and dislikes. There is a reason that OPPOSITES attract and yet in Spirit, these opposites for learning would cause great dysfunction in a relationship. For instance, I married four times, each time thinking I had met the Soul Mate, LMAO! What a joke I pulled on myself! However, upon going to Japan I was given the great opportunity to finally meet my true Soul Mate, who happens to be a woman! Equally, I met several men there that I knew I had destiny to meet and finally was given to understanding the difference.

From the initial separation of Spirit, we have yearned to get back to our lost "partner", with the added attraction of mating and procreation, we continue to seek out our "opposite". I have learned that the affinity for attraction comes from this need to complete ourselves, to "hook up" with that attraction. This affinity is stronger in males than in females, but none-the-less necessary. These attractions can happen even casually, and stronger than ever. Since the late 1950's, these attractions have been acted upon more than ever. Perhaps because mankind is evolving rapidly towards these "end times", or merely because of our awareness of these attractions and the social freedoms to act upon them.

Every living being has felt that pull, that need to explore that attraction of another person. There are many factors that draw us but the strongest of these is that Spiritual attraction and I have found that having a past life relationship with someone, be it family, lovers or even friends, we are automatically attracted once again. It may take many lifetimes of sharing and caring that attract, or the draw of Karmic necessity, to complete or redo a situation in the past.

Let me get back to our Duality. The recent poll asked that I write about Higher Self and Ego with equal votes, so I would combine them here as they have causality. We would NOT have one without the other. From the moment that humans became "self aware", there has been Ego and then began the separation in Mind from Nature and Spirit as a Singular form. Self governing, self control, self determination all fell into place shortly after. So too, did the need to believe in the Gods as self awareness lead to self denial and lack of self confidence. Life became a struggle as Nurture overcame Nature and the Duality of Spirit, that of separation upon birth, left us "wanting" for something to fill the void. The creation of the Five Levels of Mind was borne out of necessity, no longer was communication with the Universe an absolute as Nature dictates, it was muddled and confused with Self Awareness, Language, Religious Beliefs, Cultural and Social Order. Complexity created Ego and vice versa.

The Higher Self, the Spirit of Self, is the energy of the All, all that you have ever done or ever been. Before birth, the Higher Self will choose location, ethnicity, parentage, siblings and conditions of Life. And if you are saying "OH NO, I WOULD NEVER CHOOSE THIS SHIT I AM LIVING THROUGH RIGHT NOW", think again! Every ability and disability is chosen before birth, to teach and to learn. THIS is your Guardian Angle, but NOT separate from you, it is YOU. Nothing of a Spiritual nature, can come to you except by this Guardian. If you are bothered by Spiritual "golly wobbles", those dark entities that love to disturb humans, you have attracted it in some way. If you are gifted with Spiritual things, it is by this Guardian. The Higher Self is your ticket to the Universe, your direct, wireless link to the God Source. It holds all things good for you and yes, occasionally, some very difficult lessons. We are after all, Spiritual Beings have a Human Experience, not the other way around.

The Higher Self knows everything that will happen in your life, it holds the Sacred Road Map of your Journey. If you have read the "FIVE LEVELS OF MIND", then you know that this is the second level in direct connection to the God Source and your Supra Conscious level. Through this connection, it sends its messages through impressions, inspirations and dreams to influence the subconscious and conscious level of mind, attempting to bypass the Ego. The difficulty lies in the Ego/Rational level of mind where all things are cussed and discussed and directly influenced by Nurture and socio/economic structures. To the chagrin of many, the Ego generally overrides any influence by the Higher Self as it doesn't recognize its existence at all. The Ego believes that it is all there is and nothing more, that is except the belief in the "GODS". I say GODS as multiples since there are nearly 7 billion people on the planet today and each has its own belief system.

The Ego has a sovereign, sole propriety idea of Self. Today, we have the information network by which to defeat this style of thinking, but even for me, it is an ongoing battle to keep the Ego in check. We cannot live without it, it is our survival tool and a means to an end, that being a self determined Life. A brilliant example of Ego out of Control is Donald Trump, self aggrandizing, self serving and self promoting. In most cases of Grand Egos, we find great talent as it takes a strong Ego to become a star, a leader of any kind. All of the celebrities that I have met, the politicians and business leaders all had a healthy endowment of Ego. Another group of people are teachers, but mostly in perfect balance as ALL that they are, is set out in classrooms to benefit others. Teachers KNOW that they have something special, but it is to GIVE, not to RECEIVE. They also have a special dose of attraction as students may be more attractive to them then they should be. This works in a multitude of directions as students and teachers, bosses and employees, superiors and inferiors always have an attraction issue, past life or this life. An ego out of balance will take advantage of these opportunities. 

The perfect example of Ego in balance was Mother Theresa and millions of people like her, who have sacrificed self interest to serve others. Wherever there is self-less-ness, the Ego is in balance. The struggle is no less, the Ego never gives UP but it does give IN to logic, reason, intuition, inspiration and aspiration. Nurture is all about training and retraining, it is never to late to being a new path. As we learn a better way of living, we do a better job of pushing ourselves forward. Nothing comes from nothing, "nothing ventured, nothing gained". We must educate ourselves, learn about all the things within us as well as without. Education is critical for all beings, not just academia but also our human Nature. While Donald Trump and Mother Theresa are polar opposites, they both have many great lessons for us to learn from since they are famous individuals. Fame is a choice of the Higher Self, you either will be or not be, you may come close and not succeed or you will push through the doubt and make it to your dreams.

The Ego and the Higher Self are also polar opposites, one has your back, the other has your mind. How you work to bring those two entities into balance depends on your awareness of them. I highly recommend Eckhart Tolle's books as he expounds on these subjects and how to use it in the now. Keep reading, keep looking and NEVER, EVER, GIVE UP! The Ego will never give up and it will fight to your dying breath, as it too, dies at that time, with the body. The Higher Self returns to Spirit, to the Oneness, the ALL there IS to share with the Soul Mate all that it has learned and experienced. The Soul Mate studies the opposites, Twin Souls share the Journey and herein lies the affinity to attractions. There can be many Twin Souls, countless numbers  of Spirits you have shared life and loving with that will drift towards you again. BFF's come from this pool of Spirits, as does family and even our favorite actors, singers and so on. Trust is built up through many life times and we have all met people that we just "knew them" the moment you met. There is no such thing as coincidence, only choreographed  happenstance.

I hope that I have sparked your interest in your SELF! Every lifetime is a new Journey, a new challenge to master the Human Condition and its disabilities and always, ALWAYS seek to KNOW THYSELF! If we can discover the mystery of Self and Higher Self, we may finally evolve BACK to Nature as our inspiration rather than Nurture, we can overcome the motivated reasoning of the Ego and live fully expressed, satisfying lives. I wish you Peace on your path to this discovery!
