STS, trying to understand

[Ali Quadir]

Yes, but, others with vastly different life experiences here on Earth would say exactly the opposite of what you have stated here and feel it to be of uttermost truth. For myself I tend to agree with you- but it's important to bear in mind that these are merely our perspectives and may not even speak for the majority.

I wasn't explained these things as opinions but as laws of nature. I could be wrong of course. But to me it seems like you can choose every path you like, you can do what you want, but the consequences are yours to bear. And people can certainly disagree with this but that doesn't mean it's not true. I've seen people bear consequences for their behavior in events they consider unrelated. Opinion doesn't matter as much as causality..

I would argue this to be a good thing. Not because we get punished or rewarded for behavior. But because our behavior has causal consequences in our lives. Essentially if that were not the case. We would not be creators, we would not be able to affect our lives at all no matter what we do we'd never change anything on account of a personal choice.

It's interesting to hear it stated this way, mathmatically speaking you are completely correct! It would seem to make no sense at all, at first glance. I think if you place your beginning point in between 5 and 51% it makes more sense. That is to say, perhaps your average, spiritually un-enlightened or sleeping entity who is not overly STO or STS in his actions rests somewhere close to 23% STO. Making conscious efforts to go higher or lower than that number is difficult, and becomes more difficult the further you move away from 23%. In that sense it would be equally hard regardless of what you do. (and I am assuming this is only true of thrird density). Just some speculation. Cool train of thought you brought up!

I'm glad. Though I'm still not convinced. It seems weird to place complex reality on a one dimensional line. As if STS and STO are opposites, how can they be if all is one? Like I said before. I think it's a map useful in our immediate surroundings. And much easier to pass on than elaborate explanations of causality.

Sometimes I visit the forums on David Wilcock's site just to see what they're talking about there (I don't post there anymore), and I came across a thread titled "STS or STO, how about just Service to the One" or something like that. It really made me think about how I do believe we are all one mind/spirit/essence/etc. and that the concept of the two paths leading to unity are ridiculous. Do what is in your heart some say, and I agree...for me that means just being aware of my surroundings and my inner feelings/thoughts, and offering help to others when it feels right. Other than that, I do not TRY to do anything that would "increase polarity".

I don't agree with "increasing polarity"...I agree with "increasing my awareness of all being one". Know what I mean?

This sums up my beliefs as well. I try to see myself in the broader perspective of the all and decide from there what's appropriate. I do see a place for polarity, but not in the us versus them teams.
