To feel the best, a darkworker pretty much aim to build his ego and beliefs up to the point where he sees himself as inhuman - even godlike. The ego has many trappings wich is why he should understand the ego. When the ego is big enough, there is a danger of looking at everything as disposable like a number on a paper. That includes people, animals and the environment. At this point there is a danger of loosing his humanity. Therefor, he should know and understand that he controlls the ego so that the ego doesn't controll him and makes him do bad things. Because the ego doesn't care weather it's suffering or feeling good. It just needs an identity. A darkworker rises in conchioussness by accepting that the ego is part of him and steer it's growth to a positive direction of empowering it instead of letting it totally dominate him like it does with unpolarized people. A good start is echart tolles a new earth wich I am reading now. Its good. I'm reading it in one sitting. Worth each digit on the balance sheet. It's a lightworker mentality, but when you "get it" you see how it an e applied to darkworkers aswell by understanding the nature of the ego so you can gain controll over it.
This is my oppinion for the time being. We'll see how it changes as I change and read and grow. |
Half the problem is the definition of lightwalkers and darkwalkers is something that doesn't have a clear cut definition. Even after reading steve's blogs on the matter as I see it there are things in both that are good and the perfect result of both of them is to do them both. The problem is each one has a trap (the syndrome he talked about) about it.
For myself I live life consciously and do work to understand and control the ego. Actually I work to make ego a non-issue. I know who I am and my identity isn't threatened by anything. Nothing outside of me can change my identity and nothing internally can change my identity. All I seek to do is to take that internal identity and become it externally.
So anyhow I'm not an unconscious worker who is simply both mixed together into a stew. I'm a conscientious worker who chooses to walk the middle ground. Taking the best parts of both lightwalkers and darkwalkers.
