The Dark Side Option

[Guest guest]

We all have the dark side in us. We all have the need for this with

in us and it does serve a good purpose. It helps us to survive and

compete and flourish in the midst of harsh and unforgiving

conditions social or environmental.

 

With the Kundalini and often in normal life the opportunity to be a

vicious, mean and tormenting individual comes as an option. A choice

presented to us in a way that can advance or hold us from

advancement with in an evolutionary concept of spiritual growth.

 

We can choose. And of course the consequences of that choice will

bear fruit and that fruit will be eaten by the person who makes the

choice, and whether it is sweet or bitter is up to the person. This

concept can be extremely amplified with the Kundalini. And the

balancing may not occur until you die. So I teach the idea of making

the choice towards a love based option being taken.

 

This doesn't thwart the dark side from expressing but it channels

that energy into a more constructive and helpful way. While keeping

its integrity intact. By that I mean its need to be dark and

epressive of the qualities that make it a natural force for survival.

 

We are surrounded with destruction here on this world. Look at

nature and how a cat will play with a mouse to the death with out

eating it. Or an orca will flip a seal high into the air with out

consuming it. Destruction is a fact of existence here. Pain and hurt

and sickness and disaster are constant companions here. It's not an

easy place to live.

 

Love is a conscious choice that is made. The dark side will provide

the birth of a being but the love is of a more eternal survival and

yet supra-survival option. And it is an option even with children.

Ask anyone who has been abused if this is not so.

 

I see the dark side options as being tests of character. Tests from

the divine with in gauging the appropriate responses the lower mind

attaches to. It is a simple formula: Express love and consideration

and helpfulness and you advance. Express hate and guilt and fear and

you do not advance. The stone needs more polishing.

 

These qualities are not always what they seem though. And great care

needs to be given in how you express them. Your culture and your

understanding of social expectation will play into this. These

factors will flavor your responses. Yet there is still a clear

delineation between hateful, hurtful, tormenting and loving,

helpful, beneficence.

 

I choose the latter. By that choice - each and every time- am I

given the sweet fruit, my personality makes it tart as well though -

Wow

I must say that this message help me very much after reading it .

I have been having a very rough day with issues that are causing much

irritation and anger to some extent . These are not at a direct person

but more of a bad situation in my life .

 

I live on the Mississippi gulf coast and was one the many that lost

family and all possessions after hurricane Katrina . I was having a

rough time coping today with still problems from the disaster and was

masking it to my family and friends but really in turmoil inside .

 

Thanks for this message as it really has help me and almost as

though I needed to hear this today .

 

Thanks

I find it interesting that nature often depends on some good old destruction to

create.

Like the pine cone, a pine forest relies on forest fires to open the pine cones

so that new trees can grow. Amazing really.

A volcano is destructive and yet it leaves behind some of the most fertile soil.

 

Destruction/Creation both part of the same process.

 

Thankyou for that info Chrism,

love Elektra x x x

On a less deep note, I walked in to the break room, here at work, and some err

individual had put a dirty dish into the sink and left, expecting someone else

to clean it. There was food, smeared all over the sink. Thinking of several

descriptive adjectives for the slob, I tossed the dish in the trash. If someone

had wanted the dish, they wouldn't have done something like that right? I

returned to my desk and thought, " hummm. " What I had done didn't help this

person at all, and the only thing that I had accomplished was to take part in

(or perhaps just create) some karma for myself. Why in the world should I get

in the middle of it? So after a little thought, I returned to the scene of the

crime, reclaimed the dish from the trash and returned it to the sink.

 

So while you're pondering your dark side, just remember that us non-activated

types have things to worry about too! :-)

 

Blessings all!

Hi, Chris!

 

Since I didn't understand what had happened to me, I got mad at God,

for not taking care of me ... LOL!!! : )

 

As I said in an earlier post today, my husband, the one that was with

me during that terrible time, suddenly died. I loved that man so

much ... He had been having recurring dreams - that Someone or

Something was trying to kill him. At the time, I am ashamed to say

that I was too " Super Spiritual " to be of any help to him. I just

smiled, and said that God would tell me if Something Bad was about to

happen. When he died, one morning, not very long after he shared

that with me, I went into Shock ... I was too shocked to go into a

depression. I was so devastated, I had to put on " Blinders " . I

could not afford to be mad at God. I just went on, and I couldn't

look back for quite some time.

 

I married on the Rebound, and, I soon regretted it. But, I made the

most of it, for many years. I finally had to tell my husband to get

a divorce, because - I was leaving. He wanted me to be " Barbie " ,

and, he did - Not - want me to keep on pursuing my Path.

 

The Good News - husband #3 is everything that I've always wanted in a

husband! However, he left Hawaii for - me, and, due to the enormous

cost of shipping all of his stuff over to the Mainland, he ended up

just giving it all away to some unfortunate people that he knew. In

order to get a divorce from Mr. Materialism, I had to give up

everything, too. We had to start out our new life at Square One.

 

I, too, have been through many disasters, but, you find out, in time,

that it was all worth it!

 

 

Much Love, Many Blessings!

Thanks for sharing that Paul! It is a good lesson and one everyone

needs sometimes. None of us is perfect and it is sometimes tempting

to do butt in to something that we shouldn't. I've been guilty of

that in the past too, LOL.
