The Secret Design of Feminine and Masculine Energy

Polarized Consciousness
Reflect for a moment on the nature of gravity to compress and hold down. Obviously gravity is essential to our experience because without it we would fly off into space. But gravity can also crush and literally rip a hole in space-time. Now consider the possibility that gravity is not just a physical phenomenon; it can also be a force within ones mind. 

For our purposes here, incompatibility with the universal theme is akin to a “weight” in the psychic field. This weight develops gravity of its own, which in turn creates polarity; a split within the conscious field. 

As the Buddha said, in so many words, “too many are filling their baskets with burden and taking it home like treasure.” 

As the weight of polarity accumulates the compressive force intensifies, expanding its sphere of influence throughout the mind. Thus the tendency for the mind to narrow and consciousness to contract – giving rise to a score of maladies we don’t need to explore here. 

The end result of this process is isolation and estrangement from the higher fields of consciousness, and that means detachment from the Love Story has become the animating principal in ones lifeBy whatever way we term this “condition,” it steals the treasure from our lives, robbing us of bliss and the deeper experiences of Love.

Herein lies another great irony in our epic; the glorious free-will expressed to us by the universe is the source of our brightest joy and our darkest tragedy. And it is our relationship to the universal theme, individually and collectively, that defines our realm of experience.

The constrictive process described above is the chronic blockage impeding our flowing with the greater rhythms of the universe. And if this sounds like a “heart condition,” then you’re getting one of the key messages of the story; many are missing the deep experience of their higher consciousness, and it is the “heart” suffering the most.
