Ra's "balancing exercise" doesn't work for me

[xise]

I would mirror Louisabell's experience with the balancing technique. It's very useful, but it's difficult sometimes to peel the onion down to the core energetic-level beliefs and perspectives that align easily to thinking of opposites. Really, it only begins to do work once you fully know yourself at an energetic belief level, or at least have some decent capability to do so. Hence the reason why Ra said this in a precise order to know thyself before one can accept thyself:

74.11 ▶ Questioner: Now, what I am trying to get at is how these disciplines affect the energy centers and the power, shall I say, of the white magician. Could you, will you tell me how that works?

Ra: I am Ra. The heart of the discipline of the personality is threefold. One, know yourself. Two, accept yourself. Three, become the Creator.
