Much has been said about the Yin Yang, and today I was moved by a picture to add some "Dark" to the subject. lol
Seems
like it is general opinion that black represents "Bad" or "Evil". I
have found that it is actually reversed. Think about it, what is
everything in? Darkness. Behind every lit up space, what is always
behind it if you only look far enough? What is god supposedly?
EVERYTHING. Just like one might say that music is good. But what does
music come out of? Silence. Rest. Nothing. It is everything! All else
dances on it. Even our atoms dance in space, and if there is no light,
is in darkness, but it does exceptionally well. Space to the edges of
all we can perceive, and if we shine a flashlight, it is no longer
there.
Even self perpetuating ideas like Lucifer is known as the
light bringer, and his metaphorical role was to oppose gods will, and
all that is out of a sense of pride. He turned his back on faith, and
the love that exists in not knowing, trust, and nothing.
It is not
that Luci is "bad" as much as he represents what all of us struggle with
at times, which is trust in the process, the path that we loose sight
of as we crest a hill. We can have moments of doubt and destroy all we
worked for in a matter of minutes if we give in to a surface detail that
commands our attention, and we don't resolve it with ease. We might
take it like, well, god/universe/fate doesn't want us to do that, when
in all reality, it is meant to help us diversify in how we deal with
adversity. One might blame it on Luci as a scapegoat just as they might
blame anything as justification as to why they give up.
New light is shed they say.
Just like anything abstract, it means what you need or want it to mean.
Darkness
appears to be the absence of light. If that is what you are seeking,
like proof, like knowledge. But as most find, the more we learn, the
less we know, and that could be said for just about anything.
Every
fiber of your being begs for you to submit to the power that, at a
conscious level, you only know what you need to know, that knowledge is
one of the bigger attachments we can trap ourselves with. That the
brilliance is in the power of unlimited creation, not the created. It is
the diversity in creating that is that which we should expand more than
a goal of that which we create.
Architect create for creating, not
so much the glorious works that are created. In that is a balance. When
we enjoy the process fully and to the depth that we enjoy the finished
work is when we grow exponentially.
To sum, black is not bad, nor is
light good. It is all good, and to embrace it as such is to shine a bit
of the light into black emptiness of creation is us in creation, and a
bit of the black you will find driving every white blinding light...
