As Above, So Below (Bipolar Divination)

“NO ONE KNOWS FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS, OR HOW MANY SOULS DOES THE HELL HOLDS. YOU FIND A SOUL, IT'S MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD. SOME GET BOUGHT, SOME GET LOST, SOME SOLD, BUT NO ONE KNOWS FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS. OR HOW MANY SOULS DOES THE HELL HOLDS. AS WE STRIVE FOR THESE DIAMONDS AND GOLD, A LOT OF LESSONS UNFOLD.” – “FISHERMAN” BY RZA

As we behold the paradox within ourselves, we will see that none of us are wholly “good” or wholly “bad.” Coming to terms with that can be difficult.. Essentially, we have to recognize that each of us has the capacity to be God just as much as we have the capacity to be The Devil. That, of course, is an absolute view of ascension. This means that the highest “throne” of what many may call “God” is the same being which rests below (Hell). If there can only be a single “God” which is above all other entities, then by the laws of Nature, there must also be the opposite.

“As above, so below” means that the two energies which inhabit the poles are equal. If we ascend to great heights of spiritual enlightenment, but refuse to acknowledge our capacity for deception, evil, or other negatively fragmenting intentions in vibrational reality, then we have just severed our conscious mind in two—manifesting our opposite to maintain the balance of Natural Law.

If we acknowledge our duality, however, and are no longer thrown out of alignment when presented with the possibility of our dichotomous energy, they we will consciously shed light on our shadow selves internally, and claim that “land” as our own, under our rational mind's governorship. However, it may take much practice, training, and experience to wrangle in rage and not use it to exact bias or to bolster personal, materialistic, or addictive energies onto others.

This doesn't mean that one has to cower in the face of challenges. It only means that we will only become either creator or destroyer if that is what helps to maintain the balance of our environment. By doing so, we will feed everyone the energy of everything they want. When they receive this energy, they may either hang themselves with favor and attachment, or they will suffer until they can suffer no longer. Either extreme, of course, intends to allow every person their own individual path to arrive at their own free will—independently.

Without personal boundaries, of course, this can be damaging to oneself. And so, in order to hold strong to both our “calling” and our physical experience, we must balance those two initiatives so that we are not called out of our composure of preservation. When we lose composure into a system of duality, we are susceptive to bias, separation, fragmentation, and “disease.”

This type of “disease” may or may not manifest itself physically, but it is a way of saying that we are “selling” part of our conscious wholeness for an exchange of energy which only exists in the physical world: power, wealth, influence, control, popularity, etc. By doing so, we pollute our own “blood” with the darkness of denial. Our personal lack of awareness limits our ability to increase our vibration to higher and higher levels.

The “work” which is required for us to escape the boundaries of human authority require us to desensitize ourselves to any emotional attachment which exists in the physical world. WE must not only be willing to sacrifice ourselves, but any family, friend, or ideal which may stand between our devotion and the absolute truth.
