not every behavior in the world is polarized

99% of people are unpolarized

so you cant just say "what about this arbitrary behavior? is that lightwork or darkwork?" because 99% of those arbitrary behaviours are just normal humans doing normal unpolarized things

if you do art for the sake of art, dont exactly care about other people but are unwilling to dedicate yourself to youself, and just want to dick around in life and explore the various pleasures of the material world, polarization is not for you

polarization is a rare spiritual calling that, in any given lifetime, very few people undertake and very few achieve.

it's not a universal model for human behaviour.

it applies to the highly successful only - the extremes of society. It applies to Mohandas Gandhi and Julius Caesar. It doesn't to Bill the truck-driver or Apu working at the quicki-mart.

You want to do music? Why? Just to enjoy the sensory stimulation of life? You can do that without playing music, you can just enjoy the music created by others. Why MAKE music? Why CREATE? It's hard work to create, especially to create something meaningful and good. I can say that you won't be highly successful at music without polarization. Some do music to tell a story and therefore help the world, some do music for fame and fortune. Those two achieve great success, and there is no third category.

99% of the people in the world are mediocre and 99% don't polarize. This isn't a bad thing it's just how it is. Spirituality is the last thing on a typical person's mind.
