Better definition and rename of Lightworker/Darkworker is in order
I think one of the reasons it is so frustrating and confusing for people in this forum to discuss lightworkers and darkworkers is because nobody really has a clue what they actually mean. In some messages I see people talking about darkworkers as being self-centred and loving towards themselves, and in other messages I see people describing darkworkers as people who committ crime and have to lie in order to protect their "darkworking ways".
I think the biggest problem is with the label DARKworker, which implies EVIL. Steve's example of the Evil Emperor in Star Wars didn't help either. "Hey kids, who would you rather be? Luke Skywalker, the HERO of the movie? Or the EVIL Emperor with the ugly wrinked face?" Maybe he didn't mean it that way, but a lot of people here took it that way.
I propose we re-name the two labels to SELFWorker and WORLDWorker. Here would be my definitions of the two:
SELFWorker: An individual who's primary focus and intention is to work on improving HIMSELF first, and who's reasoning is that by helping HIMSELF he will be able to make a positive change in the world.
WORLDWorker: An individual who's primary focus and intention is to work on improving the WORLD first, and who's reasoning is that by helping THE WORLD he will be able to make a positive change in his own life.
Both SELFWorkers and WORLDWorkers can act out of FEAR and LOVE. If they act out of FEAR they go down the consciousness scale, if they act out of LOVE they go up the consciousness scale.
SELFWorker syndrome = failure to realize that helping the world helps oneself, and therefore being drawn towards fear-filled things like greed, hoarding, etc.
WORLDWorker syndrom = failure to realize that helping oneself helps the world, and therefore being drawn towards fear-filled things like martyrism, powerlessness due to no focus on self-improvement, judging the world without looking at oneself.
Does that make sense to everyone? I'd like to use this thread to hash out the actual DEFINITIONS of the two polarization paths, rather then whether or not it is actually useful to polarize completely etc. I dont' think we can continue any fruitful conversations on here with everyones current definition of polarization being so varied.
I think using Darkworker and Lightworker is kind of like trying to read two resumes of people who you are considering as babysitters for your kids, one named Mr. Heart and the other Mr. Pedophile and trying to be unbiased. Good luck.
