A: Keep eyes and ears open so that you can enjoy the show. But also pay close and careful attention to those around you in love and harmony. Balance is key. Goodbye.
I kept the "balance is key" thought in mind...
I was wondering what exactly is Balance? I was afraid that it was an unproductive matter and that my energies were being wasted. It happened to me once, I spent a lot of time thinking about the dynamics of densities higher than ours and thanks to the advice of several members, I understood that it was necessary to pay attention to the learning of the 3D lessons. I gave up for a few days and looking for information about Reiky, this thread started by Neil appeared:
I've been having a bit of an existential dilemma lately about what constitutes a path towards a balanced and harmonious existence in the objective sense. Firstly, what is balance? It seems to me that balance is an equivalent presence of two antithetical things. Too much disorder leads to chaos...

Here are some excerpts from the discussion that I find interesting:

It seems to me that balance is an equivalent presence of two antithetical things. Too much disorder leads to chaos, too much order leads to stagnation; an equal presence of both creates stability. I also think that Ark's work is centered around seeking balance. People that are strict scientists seem to ignore the spiritual reality which obviously flows through us while spiritualists have abstract beliefs that often lead to a primitive, if not superstitious existence. It seems that by combining the two, this impasse can be bridged and a new, much more comprehensive understanding of the universe will result. Do we, by finding some relationship between seemingly opposing things, create balance? So, my second question is how do we achieve this balance, and thirdly, is the seeking of balance a worthwhile quest on the path to ascension?

The emanations that make up your STO candidacy potential require development and strengthening. Methinks it is not that one should desire to 'be STO' per se, but that placing faith in the Universe's ominpotent functional ability to take care of itself [ie to balance] by aligning oneself with Truth, practically endeavoured by seeking objectivity to the greatest extent possible at every turn, one's STO emanations expand accordingly.
Nothing new from me really... just wanted to thank you for sharing your thoughts on this Mother of All Paradoxes by sharing what I think I know :)

Outwardly there is the entropic effects of time towards disorder. Inwardly you have growth and potential. This I think is 'balance.' It's a balance between the inner and outer processes both entering the present moment. One is directed towards disorder. The other towards order.
Only when you are properly balanced in this way could you more efficiently help others who ask. So you have, objectively speaking, an 'order of orders'. You have lower order within a higher order. First you must make your own machine balanced and ordered. That’s the first 'order.’ Then you are more able to help others if they ask. That’s the next ‘higher order’ above the first order. So in a word I would say that you must, with ever increasing greater efficiency, begin to balance yourself in order to be able to help others in a Service to Others (STO) way. Then, as you help them, then through them, you will be helped and so it goes...

I think that permanent balance or stability is a wishful thinking concept, and is not achievable. It is a desire for safety. Or rather, it is achievable, but it looks very much like death. Perhaps balance can be thought of as more of a process than a state. Think of it this way:
Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis
Then
Synthesis becomes thesis, which gives rise to antithesis, and so, again
Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis
And so on, and on…balance becomes unbalanced, which brings about thinking and learning, which brings about movement to a new level. Like walking a tightrope, one achieves balance and the next moment is unbalanced and one again has to achieve balance. I think it’s a constantly recurring cyclic process, which with knowledge and awareness can be utilised for growth.
As Laura says: In other words, we learn to "ride the bicycle" by riding it.

mada85's interpretation that oscililating order and disorder create learning and higher balance is an interesting one. It does seem to have some basis in fact; especially on this planet. Matrix reality gave a lot of us the push to get up and think about what is really out there. Perhaps that cosmic metaphysical balance is what 6th density beings seek in their reality. And when that balance is found they ascend to 7th, and the Grand Cycle closes. Another one of those paradoxical understandings: imbalance is necessary for balance to exist just like STS is necessary for STO to exist. Balance does exist somewhere...

I like this idea of balancing occurring in many orders. I think a developed individual in a sense has to do multiple balancing acts simultaneously, and then each center of balance has to balance with other centers which are also in an active state of self-balancing.
When it comes to sharing knowledge, it is another balancing act. If we have to interact with other individuals, like at work, who appear to be wholly asleep, we find a balance with them by not saying things that would create an uncomfortable situation. If we sense in people a potential to awakening, I guess it is natural to send out tendrils of truth, so to speak, even if it ends up being clumsy sometimes (since I am also still balancing myself at the same time), until you find a new balance.
But in balance, I think, there is always a state of tension. The action of balancing is continuous. As we acquire new knowledge, we are forever re-assessing all the factors that pertain to the act of balancing.
Apparently she's the "mother of paradoxes" according to Naill. I'm still analyzing the data, but for now I understand that balance is not a static thing, it moves perpetually, it's like a dance of opposites and the relationship that arises between the two, is the third aspect, the balancing.
As Laura says:
In other words, we learn to "ride the bike" by riding it.
This analogy is interesting, because to ride a bicycle we first need to learn to have balance on it. There is the subject, the bicycle, and the relationship between the two, which is balance, in order to ride that bicycle.
In order to walk we need to lose and find balance permanently, which generates that we can perform that phenomenon we call walking.
It can be observed, when we are standing, that the body looks for a third point of support to stay upright and not to fall.
Just standing up implies a work that our body does to keep that balance. It is amazing.
You can do this experience and you will notice that different parts of your feet will move, small subtle movements. I believe that within our daily lives there are good "tools" for observation.
Well, at the moment that's all. As the Cs say: "These are the questions that stimulate reflection. Reflection stimulates analysis, analysis incites conclusions, which generates knowledge, which promotes protection"
