Its all One Mind.

Its all your Mind.

If you hurt someone else, even to give to yourself, you are hurting your Self.

If you give to yourself you are giving to your (small) self and giving to your (Big) Self at the same time by giving to another (small) self that is inside the one Mind (Big Self).

The choice to be a lightworker seems an obvious one.

Are you really saying its OK for people to polarize and be sociopathic darkworkers? How can that ever lead to anything but suffering when you are just hurting your Self every time you gain? I'm not sure if these so-called darkworkers could even get anything done like you say. Even the ones who appear to be selfish probably provide masses of service, like the businessman who appears totally narcisistic and egotistical on a personal level yet creates businesses that serve many people on a global level.

How can darkworking ever get you anywhere when you are just hurting your Self to give to your self? What you are describing iare pathological people called psychopaths, not a spiritual path. Darkworking does not end up at the same place as a life of service.

Doesn't this philosophy encourage hatred and legitimise selfishness? Are you saying it a good spiritual path to take to be totally self serving? Is this your attempt at a contribution to the spiritual/self-help world? New ideas do occur in spirituality but I'm not sure this is a helpful one if people out there decide to devote themselves to themselves thinking it will lead them to the same place service does...
