I used to obsess over the 51% graduation requirement, I was fearful of polarizing STS or not making the grade but luckily I was given some wise thought:
"If your actions are motivated by fear and guilt, are any of them truly STO?"
and..
"Why do people cheat on exams? Fear of not "passing"?
When someone acts out of fear to achieve a desired goal, is this not just "cheating", even when it comes to graduation?
As a teacher, would you pass a student that cheated on the final exam? Even if his heart is in the right place?"
I still struggle with this fear, I think it is a priority to be released. I think this fear hinders my ability to unleash my full radiance and service. However, ultimately, we cannot stop the upward journey and whether we graduate this time or not, its ok because we eventually will get there, no matter what!
Now given that we are here and due to the seniority of vibration for incarnation we have earned our right to be here because we are ready to be harvested if we so choose. If we are on this forum then its a pretty big certainty that we have made our choice of polarity.
Now one could label certain actions STO or STS but ultimately it is the purity of intention behind the action that counts. Being STO means that we recognize that All is One and what we do affects All and so we agree to work with and for and not against All. Actions (within the mind as thoughts and without in the material world) are themselves are only part of STO, being is the other.
I feel that moving more and more into the heart and becoming more unconditionally loving and forgiving while bringing wisdom to oneself through meditation will turn one into a radiant being who by their very being will be serving others. Just imagine the STO one such person would be doing, imagine the 360 degrees of omnidirectional waves of loving vibration being giving off the majority of the time from that person, washing over all others. With such a person, their actions, by their very nature of being a loving, radiant entity would be STO because that is where the entity is coming from.
So at least in my case I just have to let go of numbers and making the grade and just become the most loving and wise entity that I can because it feels right, it feels good, it brings myself and others joy and if that life allows me to graduate, awesome, if not, that's ok, I will still feel good about the life I led and with the headway I've made in this lifetime in conjunction with my previous lifetimes I will be in a great place to start serving others on whichever 3D planet I end up on.
