Lulu,
I view the STS and STO paths as differing approaches to learning and understanding the Creator. Those who walk the STO path best understand the Creator through knowing and helping others, those who walk the STS path understand the Creator primarily through understanding and aggrandizing the self. Once one attains near perfect understanding of the Creator, either through understanding of self or others, polarity may be abandoned. Until that time, however, it is through polarization that we learn and move forward.
As a seeker on the path I understand that you are in search for answers. There is perhaps a part of you that hopes if not expects that there will be one who has all the answers that will satisfy long held curiosities. I believe all seekers have experienced this. However, there is no mystic upon the mountain to dispense wisdom. To find truth you must look within. You have all the answers. You are the mystic with all the answers you will ever need, but you must be willing to listen to them with a an open and fearless mind.
I do not know if I was walked into, or my true self had merely moved to the background because it could not stand the indignity of infancy. I barely tolerated childhood, and can remember vivid disgust at having a small and frail body that I had little control over.
