[QUOTE="Luckysingh, post: 165796, member: 16886"] Truthsatnaam ji, A very good post indeed that highlights this importance of duality. When we see the duality in all things existing and around us such as day/night, good/evil, black/white, wet/dry, land/water, clouds/rain, sun/moon, right/wrong .. ....etc..etc... Also noting the fact that at any given time as the earth is rotating around the sun then half receives light and heat and the other half doesn't. This is the day/night in different parts of the world. Note that this is balanced all the time. THIS BALANCING OF DUALITY is what keeps the universe held and going. I saw your post the other day, but I didn't pay too much attention until the thought of this duality came to me and I rememered this post. This BALANCE is important in the whole of creation. Going from very large matter in the universe to microscopic cells, we can see even a single cell plays duality. It will take things in as in feeding and then give small amounts of chemicals and energy out. You have processes that are called intracellular (ie. inside the cell) and extracellular (outside of the cell) To the simple plant that takes in our carbon dioxide from our breathes and gives out oxygen in return for us to breathe in. Infact every organ of our body gets from other organs and in turn supplies other organs or parts. These duality fuctions are endless. I can now see and realise that the entire universe and creation has this operating all the time. The duality within us is a little more complicated. We have our physical needs and also spiritual/mind/mental. For all the god within us that trys to surface, we also have vices and evils that try to knock it back down. QUESTION IS- WHY would creator makes us individuals and give us these negative weaknesses that try to overpower the truth within us.?? Is it all about keeping us balanced or is it about HOW well we balance ourselves to be in alignment with the rest of the universe and creation that is already balanced.??? It's funny because I have never thought of these questions before, but they came to me whilst I was doing simran this morning. The more we question it, the more interesting our purpose of life keeps becoming. The Ultimate Duality I think is that the Lord gives us this ABILITY to control our own physical and spiritual/mental. But our mind (mann) on the other hand tends to wander in its own direction, believing it knows best. The Granth Sahib ji tells us repeatedly to gain control of this mind or mann and steer it in the right direction. What is the right direction, one may ask ? The Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji explains from start to finish what the direction is. Seems easy, but it takes a lot of effort. You see the ability given to us is more interested in doing things in the wrong direction. Until we level and conquer this duality out by using the ability for the one thing in the one and only direction, until then we remain out of touch and frequency or consonance with creation, as the rest of creation is balanced in its duality. So we come and go whilst the balanced duality around us continues. Our duality is always unbalanced and we have to work at it to be aligned with the universe. Waheguru [/QUOTE]
