Balance - The Key to Navigating the Ocean of Consciousness

The fundamental of energy healing is focusing attention intelligently. Ultimately we are focusing attention somewhere in the field of life, in the field of consciousness made manifest. The infinite ocean of consciousness can be divided up in any number of ways. In order to intelligently focus attention, we must have a road map.

I have spoken much about the range of self from the physical manifest to the field of unmanifest Being. This is one way of looking at self. Another way is to high and low vibrational states. Yet another is from smaller than the smallest to larger than the largest, and yet another is from no awareness to the full light of completely awakened consciousness. There are many ways. 

As humans we are so fortunate to have wonderful physiologies which are capable of experiencing these various ranges of worldly expression, as well as fathoming the infinity which resides behind all manifestation. Being human is just amazing!

In this particular blog, I offer principles for successful functioning within the realm of vibrational variance. All of the various navigational spectra interlace. However, mastery of the realm of vibration seems to have more influence on personal fulfillment than any other. 

Due to the human condition we have the privilege of witnessing all sorts of situations and conditions. Some beings, such as angels attune only to the high vibration levels of existence, demons only attune to the low vibrations. At a material level, places like prisons and mental institutions tend to be low vibration areas, where as holy temples, and other sacred places are high vibration places.

Living a meaningful life is fundamental to fulfillment. This requires the ability to navigate the whole span of the vibrational realm. The whole field of manifestation comes into being due to the churning of the ocean of consciousness between the high and low vibrations dynamic interaction. When the light and the darkness come together they dance the cosmic dance, they are the vessel for the Divine Dialogue. As such tremendous energy is produced and from that the material world emerges. In the ancient tale of the Mahabharata this dynamic is described as a great battle between the Devas and the Asuras. They are lined up to infinity on either side of the ocean of consciousness and are each pulling in their unique direction. The churning which ensues causes many things to emerge from the ocean of consciousness including Amrit Kalash, the nectar of immortality.

So how exactly do we ensure that we become the recipients of that immortality? The secret is to permanently identify with the field of consciousness itself, rather than becoming gripped by either the darkness or the light. There are countless ways to identify with the field of unmanifest Pure Consciousness, meditation being one of the best. There is a sweet spot between the darkness and the light. There is a point of perfect balance. Through careful examination of this point of perfect balance, I have found that it too is infinite. One can achieve ever finer expressions of balance, ad infinitum. The test of success is to be able to maintain that state of balance in the face of any extreme experience to the upper or lower end of the vibrational spectrum.

Ascetics exercise renunciation as a means of attaining the highest experience of Self. So, for the renunciate the action step is to disengage with the range vibrational realms, not participating in the dramas of life.

Those who live in the world attain Union with Self through refinement. One gains success in the relative by mastering behavior along the entire range of vibrational expression. To do this successfully first the sweet spot of balance is located. Once the awareness is comfortable residing in that space without effort, then the pushing and pulling of the field of consciousness supports expansion of awareness. As awareness expands one can honor and recognize all of the light and all of the darkness for the vital role it plays in the creation of the universe.

Basically, the ability to function efficiently at the extreme ends of the vibrational spectrum without being gripped by either the light or dark comes from stabilization of the state of inner balance. The more refined the balance maintained, the more extreme ends of the range of the vibrational realm become available for integration in the field of life.

When balance is not present, then thoughts and actions are dictated by the churning of the field of consciousness. However when balance is established, then one has the freedom to give expression to very low vibrational tendencies, and the responsibility to express high vibrational behaviors, thoughts and actions. This simple formula will not only ensure a meaningful, and successful life for yourself, but the most life supporting effects for all who know you.

May you find the path to balance joyfully effortless.
