Balance Is. There is not an ‘in balance’ or ‘out of balance’ state.
Balance in the Hologram of The One is intrinsic. It can be compared to floating in the
ocean in a state of neutral buoyancy. If we float near the surface, the ocean is
illuminated and we are able to enjoy the life that lives there. If we float a little
deeper, the ocean is less illuminated and a different layer of life surrounds us. Deeper
yet, the ocean is dark and life itself is illuminated. Yet in all these layers we are in
balance. The ocean enfolds us and holds us wherever we are.
This is also true of the ocean of energy that we call The One. Whether we are sitting
on ‘cloud nine’ or ‘in the pits’ in this movie of reality, The One
enfolds us and holds us. Balance Is. Wherever we may be and in whatever we are doing,
there is Balance. We may not be aware of it and we may not experience it. In fact, we may
‘feel’ just the opposite; we may feel that we are out of balance. But the fact
remains, Balance Is.
When we speak of gaining Balance, we are not talking about the attention required for a
clown to remain atop a ball or a tight rope walker to walk the wire. In our physical
world, they can become unbalanced and they require a bit of attention to remain in
balance. Rather, we are talking about recognizing the Balance that Is in The One. However,
the effort of attention required in maintaining this state does relate to that physical
effort. They both require a degree of attention. Free floating attention to Balance can
become effortless, but a bit of practice is required in order to gain and sustain this
state. In order to accomplish this, we must make the illusion of duality fit within our
movie of reality.
The illusion of duality exists in detail when we give too much attention to our
apparent ‘state’ within consensus reality. In order to have a state, a
comparison must exist. If I am in a state of wealth, poverty must exist. If I am in a
state of health, illness must exist. If I am good, there must exist evil. If I am right,
there must exist wrong. The nature of duality is in comparison. Without comparison,
duality does not exist.
There may be times when I feel that I am losing my Balance. I may have ‘lost’
a loved one, a job, found difficulty in a relationship, can’t seem to make ends meet,
suffered an illness or injury or just got pulled over by the State Patrol for going a
little too fast. At these times, it ‘feels’ as if I am no longer in Balance. At
these times we must recall the fact that nothing happens by accident and that in the
hologram of Spirit energy, Balance Is. In The One, duality does not exist. It exists only
here in our limited reality. We have created duality and for us, both sides of the coin do
exist.
The realization of Balance happens when we are able to see that both exist, appreciate
our perspective as well as the perspective of others and acknowledge the opposite.
Acknowledging opposites does not mean we like or dislike, love or hate, agree or disagree
or win or lose. Acknowledging opposites means simply that we ‘accept the
presence’ of the opposite in our movie of reality. Unconditional acceptance is the
foundation of both Love and Balance. Saying that we have Unconditional Love without
Unconditional Acceptance is a lie.
One teaching puts it this way. The prime directive is: Love God with all your Heart,
Soul, Mind and Being.
The second directive is LIKE THE FIRST: Love your Neighbor as Yourself. For if you say
that you Love God and hate your neighbor, you are a liar.
In order to maintain our awareness of Balance, we must continually focus our attention
on the Balance of The One. And in the times when we feel unbalanced, we must make a
cognitive choice to focus our attention on this Balance. It is not going to come naturally
at first. It is going to take a conscious choice. This is Unconditional Love. It does not
mean that we must agree with what others are doing. We know that the emotional feelings of
love and hate, good and bad, right and wrong are developed within this reality in response
to the movie. There is nothing ‘wrong’ with these feelings. They are a part of
the script. And, as we play our parts, these feelings will surface. It is at these times
that we must make the choice to focus our attention on the Balance of The One.
Duality does not exist in Balance. To stay on the ball, we must apply this principle to
every aspect of our ‘life’ here in this movie of reality. In a state of
Unconditional Love, there is no good or bad, right or wrong and there are no winners or
losers. There are only the players in the movie of life.
The essence of God or The One is holographic, nonlocal spirit energy or awareness. The
energy of Spirit, the awareness of Spirit is all inclusive. In spirit, there is no
separation. Unconditional Love is total acceptance of each and every aspect of our
reality.
Unconditional Love is not the emotional feeling of good and bad, right and wrong in
this reality. Unconditional Love is not emotional love. Unconditional Love is not empty or
void of emotion. Unconditional Love is Freedom From Emotion.
In the teaching of the prime directive, the bottom line is to Love all as we love Self.
Experience arises out of awareness of self and realizing self. Experience is self, viewing
and interacting with self in the illusion of separation where self is the
‘other’ with which we interact. There is no separation. Therefor, there is no
reason to limit the experience self out there to other human beings. What is out there is
self, interacting with self whatever it is. It is the lover as well as the ground on which
we walk.
We must learn not only offer unconditional Love and Acceptance to the world around us.
We must make the vital step of accepting ourselves in the same manner. We must learn to
Love ourselves Unconditionally. We cannot Love another until we Love ourselves.
There is not time, so what is the rush?
There is no death, so why the sorrow?
For one in Balance, the ‘worst’ cannot happen. There is no worst, there is no
better. What will happen to us in an eternal energy world that is Love? How can we win or
lose? How can we do ‘good’ or ‘bad?’ How can we be ‘right’
or ‘wrong?’ How can we anything but Be?
Like and dislike, love and hate, good and bad, right and wrong all exist in order for
us to experience in this movie of reality. In the illusion of limited experience, one
cannot exist without the other.
Attempting to change wrong to right or good to bad is playing the game of life in the
illusion of duality. It is okay to play, as long as we can play without judgment and as
long as what we perceive as the ‘other’ never becomes personal.
Experience is self, realizing self. When we judge another, we are judging self.
It is okay to play the game of life. Go ahead and change the bad to good, get involved
and make the world a ‘better’ place. But do what you do because you choose to do
so and not because someone or something else is wrong.
Every scene in our movie of reality contains an opportunity for us to put this
realization to the test. Like learning to walk, this Balance takes practice at first.
Soon, however, walking in Balance is a natural thing.
Walk in Peace
