I don't get it.... why not destroy evil?

No disagreement here , fwiw , but the ying-yang concept , can be a conceptual tool , for any perspective , at or even beyond 4th, (accepting that it is a higher based concept ) , its still about consciousnesses . The duality is something in our perspective. eh , makes sense ? edit same of what you wrote , hum talk about going in circles :-D

Yes, I certainly agree with that. We are 3D and, having completed the previous ones, this means we are 1D/2D/3D. So, each of the subsequent densities contain all the previous densities. And, 7D = 1D/2D/3D/4D/5D/6D/7D. All is contained by (or, is a part of) 7D. This is why, I think, all densities are said to be 7D.

5D thru 7D are nondual "in themselves" but this doesn't mean they are detached from (or non-interactive with) lesser densities. Quite the opposite, in fact. All is one, after all.
 
I have several mental blind points that annoy me regarding Yin-Yang; I mean the white point within the black half and vice versa. I don't get it exactly within the context of STO-STS duality but it somehow means balance, obviously, and that the two halves are one eventually or serve some common goal.
May be the dots represent the ‘blending in the middle’ or the opportunity for sts to become sto and vice versa, or the influence of sts or sto in its opposite for potential learning, or simply that one cannot exist without the other and is always present.

From an sts perspective, although it promotes and feeds off negativity ironically this negativity causes dramatic lessons and experiences, then ultimately, revelations about a choice, so it enables the seeker of more positive orientation to notice and adhere to the path of serving others, the little white dot..

From an sto perspective, they serve others so they also serve sts which takes and consumes, so there in, serving others enables serving the self. Little white dot

Sto serves self by serving others, sts serves self but inadvertently serves others by providing lessons. Nothing is ever 100% one or the other.


Or May be the yin-yang just looks boring without the dots ;-)
 
I agree with your explanations, Fluffy. One of the things that annoys me about yin-yang is the black dot within the white half. Each of the halves consists of a spherical main body and a curving tail. For an experiment, I take the center of spherical body of the white half as 7D. And then I wonder what the black dot in the middle of the white sphere might be representing. I try to explain it with what I know or believe about 7D.

Other than the reasonable metaphorical explanations you suggested above, the following descriptions came to my mind from Eben Alexander's book Proof of Heaven (bold emphasis added):

I continued moving forward and found myself entering an immense void, completely dark, infinite in size, yet also infinitely comforting. Pitch black as it was, it was also brimming over with light: a light that seemed to come from a brilliant orb that I now sensed near me. An orb that was living and almost solid, as the songs of the angel beings had been.

My situation was, strangely enough, something akin to that of a fetus in a womb. The fetus floats in the womb with the silent partner of the placenta, which nourishes it and mediates its relationship to the everywhere present yet at the same time invisible mother. In this case, the “mother” was God, the Creator, the Source who is responsible for making the universe and all in it. This Being was so close that there seemed to be no distance at all between God and myself. Yet at the same time, I could sense the infinite vastness of the Creator, could see how completely minuscule I was by comparison. I will occasionally use Om as the pronoun for God because I originally used that name in my writings after my coma. “Om” was the sound I remembered hearing associated with that omniscient, omnipotent, and unconditionally loving God, but any descriptive word falls short.

The pure vastness separating Om and me was, I realized, why I had the Orb as my companion. In some manner I couldn’t completely comprehend but was sure of nonetheless, the Orb was a kind of “interpreter” between me and this extraordinary presence surrounding me.

It was as if I were being born into a larger world, and the universe itself was like a giant cosmic womb, and the Orb (who remained in some way connected to the Girl on the Butterfly Wing, who in fact was she) was guiding me through this process.

Later, when I was back here in the world, I found a quotation by the seventeenth-century Christian poet Henry Vaughan that came close to describing this place—this vast, inky-black core that was the home of the Divine itself.

“There is, some say, in God a deep but dazzling darkness...”

That was it, exactly: an inky darkness that was also full to brimming with light.
 
In the book, what immediately follows the above excerpt contains some relevant explanations about the main subject of this thread:

The questions, and the answers, continued. Though they still didn’t come in the form of language as we know it, the “voice” of this Being was warm and—odd as I know this may sound—personal. It understood humans, and it possessed the qualities we possess, only in infinitely greater measure. It knew me deeply and overflowed with qualities that all my life I’ve always associated with human beings, and human beings alone: warmth, compassion, pathos... even irony and humor.

Through the Orb, Om told me that there is not one universe but many—in fact, more than I could conceive—but that love lay at the center of them all. Evil was present in all the other universes as well, but only in the tiniest trace amounts. Evil was necessary because without it free will was impossible, and without free will there could be no growth—no forward movement, no chance for us to become what God longed for us to be. Horrible and all-powerful as evil sometimes seemed to be in a world like ours, in the larger picture love was overwhelmingly dominant, and it would ultimately be triumphant.

I saw the abundance of life throughout the countless universes, including some whose intelligence was advanced far beyond that of humanity. I saw that there are countless higher dimensions, but that the only way to know these dimensions is to enter and experience them directly. They cannot be known, or understood, from lower dimensional space. Cause and effect exist in these higher realms, but outside of our earthly conception of them. The world of time and space in which we move in this terrestrial realm is tightly and intricately meshed within these higher worlds. In other words, these worlds aren’t totally apart from us, because all worlds are part of the same overarching divine Reality. From those higher worlds one could access any time or place in our world.

It will take me the rest of my life, and then some, to unpack what I learned up there. The knowledge given me was not “taught” in the way that a history lesson or math theorem would be. Insights happened directly, rather than needing to be coaxed and absorbed. Knowledge was stored without memorization, instantly and for good. It didn’t fade, like ordinary information does, and to this day I still possess all of it, much more clearly than I possess the information that I gained over all of my years in school.

That’s not to say that I can get to this knowledge just like that. Because now that I’m back here in the earthly realm, I have to process it through my limited physical body and brain. But it’s there. I feel it, laid into my very being. For a person like me who had spent his whole life working hard to accumulate knowledge and understanding the old-fashioned way, the discovery of this more advanced level of learning was, alone, enough to give me food for thought for ages to come...
