STS is not punishing catalyst. STS simply entails acting from a place of greed, manipulation, megalomania, pursuing self-gratification at the expense of others, sizing up the value of others in an attempt to view how you may derive usage from another as though they were some sort of reservoir of energy that the STS adherent may freely drink from.
Suppressing the "positive feed" from the Higher Self, while not a particularly wise choice of action at all, is still within the boundaries of Free Will. If you pay careful attention, you will be able to see which route is the 'best' to take and is the one laid out for you by the Higher Self and the various ways in which your Higher Self plays a key role in things. In my case of one who has absolutely resolved to polarize STO and seek the light be serving others, the best determined route for is the one where the primary intention is to do good for someone, help another, put another before oneself.
For example: I need to go to the supermarket for a family member. The walk sign is flashing for me to cross the street. Suddenly I have the thought of going to a deli and buy a cigarette or something first. The street sign leading there will not allow me to walk, and cars are passing by. If I were to pursue the path of serving another before myself, my path will be very fluid, easy, and clear if I choose to cross the street to the supermarket. Now, if I were to want to make a detour and go to the grocery instead I would be performing several 'unskillful' acts: I would be choosing to gratify myself first, and even worse I'd be ingesting poison into my body. My Higher Self is, at this point, trying to convey to me that this path is not conducive to my true will by the no-walk sign, the many cars preventing me from progressing further, and the fact that I'd have to wait there for approximately one minute. Perhaps in that one minute, if I decided to go the "lesser path" of this junction, I am afforded the opportunity of an entire minute to rethink my decision and head back onto the 'best' route.
One folly of this forum is the tendency to seem to over-conceptualize and compartmentalize the notion of STO and STS. These terms were chosen by Ra, and were stated as both being valid, because they are a highly evolved being and at their current nexus they have transcended polarity. It is important to filter these terms and water them down so to speak as to better apply them to our current density of illusion. STO = seeking to help out another in any way for any reason, STS I have already described above, greed, manipulation, etc. So 3DMonkey, if you would seek to comprehend the mentality of one who is "highly polarized STS", look towards the ones who many term "the Illuminati" or "The Powers That Be" for a prime example. The most cold, calculating and manipulative people are somewhat synonymous with "STS".
STO would be Buddha, very genuinely humble individuals, etc. Pretty much anybody who finds enjoyment and bliss in being able to help anybody out. The next time you ask a random person who seems to be having trouble with something, "Hey, do you want/need any help?" you are polarizing in the STO path.
