Emotions and Balance

[Namaste]

A typical paradox :¬)

How can one not feel happy when helping others? And once you choose that path, you align yourself with it. Hence, you feel happy all of the time. A still mind during meditation feels like bliss.

I am happy to feel happy throughout this life, meeting that which I do not choose with neutrality, as I personally think suppressing emotions (especially the positive) in order to become neutral, is a wasted incarnation on this beautiful planet.

The true self we discover within ourselves is one of bliss and passion. It's the driving force to create and evolve, the élan vital.

Could you imagine a nation of neutral beings, indifferent to everything, striving to rid the self of feeling? How can that possibly be evolution, when the One Creator created creation (hah!) in order to experience.

I believe that Ra was pointing to the fact that when one balances positively - in service to others - being in a state of love is balanced, able to respond to catalyst, rather than react emotionally.

Being balanced is being responsive, not emotionally reactive.

I also believe that Wanderers incarnated here to lift the spirits, to choose love/passion and energy, in which to help the planet. Not to become emotional robots, neutral to love. How can that possibly help? Unless of course you're actually on the path of STS, wanting to make the harvest.

Get out there and appreciate the beauty of this place and each other!
