I think when it comes to Polarity and lot of people get very confused over what is a very simple topic.
Essentially you can live for the collective.
Or live for yourself.
It's as simple as that. People's definitions differ. Obviously everyone is biased, and everyone has an angle.
Lightworking is living for the collective. It's about serving the greater good, in other words what is best for the world is the highest good.
Darkworking is about living for the self. It's about serving your personal selfishness. What is good for the self, is the greatest good.
In my opinion Darkworking is far superior to Lightworking because Darkworking is about rational self interest, whilst Lightworking is new-age communism.
Like I say though, that's my opinion.
Now on to the next bit people get confused about. A lot of people seem to think they are "more Lightworker" or "A bit of both - Greyworker" this is nonsense. Steve has explicitly stated that -Working is a conscious choice. It's a difficult and powerful process.
None of us on the forum, bar one or two, have actually Polarised. If you think you have, but you live in a shack, or you have poor health, or your unhappy then your lying to yourself.
I haven't. But I am in the process of becoming a Darkworker. I consider myself a COMPLETE novice at it, and I don't put in anything like the effort I should, but its coming together.
Furthermore I'm tired of hearing about "Greyworking" There is no such thing, if you think there is (or can be) then you obviously don't understand the point of Polarising.
Polarisation is about focussing all your energy in one direction, about mentally sharpening the sword on one side, or fortifying the shield on the other. You can't be a Lightworker and care about yourself more than you do about others. You can't be a Darkworker if you care about others more than your self.
However a highly evolved -Worker will look exactly the same to someone on the outside because the actions will be almost identical. If you don't understand how that can be, you aren't ready to consider Polarisation as a lifestyle choice.
Because that's what it is, essentially. It's a lifestyle choice. It's a bit of a bigger one than becoming Vegan or running every morning, but its a lifestyle choice none-the-less.
-------------
I will now offer some advice for those who don't know much about either philosophy.
Try them. I can only say try them. If one resonates with you, stick with it, if it doesn't you aren't ready to think about it.
For me, I found that rational self interest, selfishness, and working for myself to be a far more rewarding and enjoyable mindset to have, than working for the whole.
For me, Darkworking is about becoming a God on Earth. It's about achieving our individual potential and becoming the best we can be. It's about being my toughest task master, and my most rewarding friend.
I give myself permission to exist as an individual, free from the influence of others. It's hard, and I still struggle with it alot, but I'm getting there.
It's also about creation and destruction and understand the balance between the two. I can create with the application of my mind, of logic and thought. It's not automatic, it's not spiritual or mystical, thought is created by will, will is created by effort, effort is created by desire, desire is created by the Ego.
I can also destroy, I destroy without mercy that which stands in my way. A person who seeks only to hold me back is my enemy. A situation that restricts me must be overcome with the full force of my effort. Pain is a signal something must be improved. Happiness is a signal that my life is being lived, and my reward is that happiness.
Destruction and creation are concepts a Darkworker has to be familiar with. There can be no weakness for a Darkworker. Life must be lived. We as Humans are unique in that we can choose between life and death. We can willingly end our own lives. Therefore we must have freewill, and we must choose to live. Life is not an imperative for us. We have to create life, we have to fight for it, we have to make it our own.
When you understand that, you understand why a Darkworker is as he is. He is not cold or cruel. He is a realist. He knows that A=A and pretending otherwise is intellectual suicide. Life must be lived, it cannot be passively observed.
