Meditation

I agree with what you are saying, but i was getting to the point that those who we think of as teachers still have distortions and negative aspects but are able to balance them more and more in the present moment.

Doesn't really work that way. Imbalances remain imbalanced, forever, unless and until they are integrated.

I think it can work like that and it doesn't mean by any reason that you are not further integrating and balancing experience. The teacher archetype if you want to look it at that way has grown to the point of accepting the reasonability of the light/love love/light of the present moment more and more to the point that distortions are let go of. Think of it like a piano key getting quieter over time, rather than the note being played over and over.

No, you do not remove imbalances without their integration. However, you can become centered and do work regardless of those imbalances.
