I see my shadow-self, I accept my shadow-self, I love my shadow-self, I invite my shadow-self into my open heart and I choose to express my light-side.
Never reject anything.. always accept, always love, always invite in, and then make a choice.
A Buddhist Master saw three monsters outside his cave. They were gruesome and hideous - faces bloody, flesh hanging off the bone, deformed and bulbous.
They stood outside his cave. He invited them in for tea. They came in and sat and drank tea. When they began to speak, he gently gestured to them that they be silent. And then he sat with them.
This is how the Master handles his shadowside. Sit down and have tea with your shadow side. Accept them, see them, and invite them in. When they start to speak, tell them no. Tell them you are choosing to express your light-side.
They will respect your choice and eventually they will be transmuted through Love and come to work for you. "Shadow-self, feel my unconditional love, join me in the open heart, and let us work together in service-of-all."
This is how you advance on the positive polarity. Cultivate true love of your dark-side, and then simply make a choice.
