Our definitions of polarity per the Law of One material

[Bring4th_Austin]

If it is choice that polarizes us (or moves us towards one polarity or the other), what is the danger in defining the positive polarity as a "Service to Others polarity" and the negative polarity as a "Service to Self polarity?" That's what I am misunderstanding.

One can choose to leap off of a cliff to experience the fall. But if one was lead to believe by their innacurate reading of the beware of cliff sign, that there was no danger, than that very real danger should be addressed and the sign made more concise. "Beware that falling off this cliff can be detrimental your continued health!"

Does this relate to defining the polarities as Service to Others or Service to Self? Or is it a response to my last question, "What is the danger?" Either way, I'm unsure of how it fits. Do you feel that defining the negative polarity as "service to self" somehow hides what that polarity entails?

The leaping, or not, off of the cliff is not polarity.

I feel like I understand your point. In the metaphor, the polarity would be being safe and sound on top of the cliff, or falling and ultimately landing on the ground. The polarity was the result of the choice to leap or not.

But can't you describe the paths as "the leaping path" or "the not leaping path?"

You are mistaken when you say I am saying the whole community is having the same interpretation. I am saying that I observe some applying varying degrees of this misniterpreation. And that is only my opinion of course as there is no sense in me preaching what I believe. I am only stating an observation and not wanting to point directly at anyone now.

Of course. I didn't mean to say you thought the community was misguided, but I understand that you feel there is some danger in misinterpretation of the concepts. I don't recall really seeing the Choice being represented as being incongruent with the way it was described but godwide_void.

So I understand that an inaccurate reading of a "Beware of Cliff" sign may lead to harm, and how that translates to you feeling like there is danger in misinterpretation of polarity being defined as STO or STS...but I do not understand where you perceive the danger in those definitions.

Could you more specifically explain, perhaps literally instead of through metaphor, how defining the negative polarity as "Service to Self polarity" is dangerous to an individual?
