My struggle with the Choice, 2nd guessing.

[Brandon Gwinn]

I don't think I need the power and so far it's not really a desire I believe I have yet, just a temptation. But I can see the rationale behind the LHP. The RHP is one of innocence, and Love and Light are the default conditions of the universe and could be perceived as weakness where one's power comes from the all and is not accrued within the self directed over others. Seeing yourself as the one God who all others are to serve and living within, ordering, and increasing the illusion could be seen as rising above the boring, love-drunk norm and creating a real, unique experience. The LHP would rather see the self as all rather than the all as self, giving away "itself" to others. There's a sense of power that I believe the LHP tastes from this and that is the temptation.
