Polarizing for the sake of polarizing - AnthroHeart - 09-20-2019
If we want to polarize positively, is it about doing something good but not because we want to polarize positively?
Must we do good things only because we want to, hopefully with love?

Can you be deeply focused on love and be in love if you keep polarization as your goal?

As far as I understand it, yes.
If we want to do something to polarize a certain way, I would see that as STS.

Can we do anything "good" without love?

I think we need to consider the purity of intentions here’s. We are here to learn the ways of love. STO must be thinking of others at least 51% of the time. Doing a good deed for the rewards, not because you truly are responding with love, is rather self serving. You’ll still get the reward but one can’t be said to be polarizing positively.
My opinion on the attitude of serving others: you want to sincerely help. Say someone is starving and you have the extra food or money. One gives the starving man food out of compassion. He knows that this will produce positive karma, but that’s not why he does the good deed. He does the deed because someone is in need. The appropriate and natural response for this entity is love.
Now one may still be rewarded even if his intentions are not pure: he feeds the starving man because he knows he will be rewarded in the next life.
Is one polarizing to the positive even when his intentions are impure like that? It sounds to me to be a negative bias, but is that a negative polarizing bias? Let’s discuss this because I am unsure.

My question was rhetorical
Honestly, I don't understand all the fixation on the polarization for the "next life". To me, love now and here is all that is and matters.

It strikes me that the question defining this thread implies its own fallacy. The degree to which one can ascend the proverbial stairs of light has little to do with one's philosophical perspective, nor with one's intention to achieve anything. Therefore, generally speaking, I would surmise, because the average being would be guided up the "stairs" based upon unconscious attributes, that any conscious effort to actually polarize while incarnate would be a rather inaccurate affair. In other words, the field of play is not in the world of outer manifestation, so the efficacy of such calculations as to how to jack up polarization is somewhat randomized.
For an adept, however, to consecrate oneself more deeply to service (and, consequently, increase polarization) in order to more effectively serve is clearly an option, in my view. But this is a different matter in that it's laid out on a different plane, one of Spirit, not of gamesmanship.

Conscious decisions to be positive, aware, ... can help reduce suffering and keep one's energy more pure
I at times become upset, but I've gotten very used to consciously bringing my attention to healing, forgiving, helping and being of service through prayer. it makes purifying my energy easier and more manageable.
beings can suffer greatly. think about that..
