Lightworker vs Darkworker labels are a sham This topic got started with Steve discussion of polarity which I loved!
The dictionary states that polarity is an "Intrinsic polar separation, alignment, or orientation, especially of a physical property" The first thing that comes to mind is electricity. Now we know if you try to run both charges at the same time they will cancel each other out. On that we can all agree.
The problem comes now when we say “Because positive and negative energy cannot flow at the same time then therefore we must conclude that only one charge will work within the same person”
Most people do think either negatively or positively, most people do work either out of fear or out of love. But can we therefore conclude that all people must only work with one?
Have you ever seen someone surprise you with their behavior? They may say they were in a bad mood or they’re just particular about a certain thing but it shows that people are complex and ever changing. In life we cannot clearly point out who is a sith and who is a jedi. We can find successful people who are fear based and some who are love based but that does not conclude that one is Evil and one is good.
It is possible to break down people's motivation most of the time and some people are just focused inward and some are simply focused outward but you cannot conclude that these people are always focused inward or outward. You may say they are generally focused inward or outward.
If you write a blog about helping but you aren't really trying to help people it won't work very effectively. Steve's blog is primarily about giving and about the outward; thats why its successful. Steve has a lot to give because he has taken in so much knowledge in the past. Does this mean that while Steve was acquiring this knowledge he was Dark and now that he’s giving it back he’s automatically Light? Is it possible for him to have both motivations? I think yes. Maybe not at the same time but sometimes he can think that its awesome he’s making money and getting to work from home. Then an hour later he can feel good about all the people’s lives he’s effecting in a positive manner. He can have both inward and outward polarities on the same subject and still be effective as long as he focuses on one polarity at a time.
If you see a little old lady getting robbed and you risk your life to defend her you’ll be focuses on giving. Reflecting back you can even derive pleasure for how cool it made you look in front of your girlfriend. You basic intent was based upon a positive polarity and through your mind the energy can flow for a brief time in a negative polarity and bring you joy.
So who gets to be labeled a DARKWORKER and who gets to be labeled a LIGHTWORKER. Who am I? Am I both? Do I have to choose to be a Jedi or a Sith right now?
The label of Lightworker or Darkwork is an over generalization that can be used in many but not all cases.
My whole problem with polarity as it relates to to Lightworker vs Darkworker is that you cannot accurately draw a direct correlation between the two. Because all As are Bs it doesn't mean all Bs are As. To make that jump is kind of like whats happening with polarity.
I don't like the term Lightworker but the fact that all Lightworkers use positive energy does not lead to the conclusion that all Lightworkers never use negative polarities. So am I being a Lightworker now because I want to give people my perspective to help others or am I trying to bring inward support from others as some type of gratification? I’m not sure I know but I love this site! I’m feeling love based right now. |
