Ardhanareshwar: balancing the energies

Balancing Energies..

First thing first ... 

We cannot balance anything which cannot be measured.. and we cannot measure anything which we have not accepted ...

"Ego" or masculine energy is not a bad word .. unfortunately it has been termed bad ..

Let me be frank .. 

If I have this mission to create a chemical free society, it routes out from the sense of self worth .. and this "Sense of self worth" is also ego ..

Ego the energy which motivates us to do something or create something.. 

So next time if someone says I don't have ego .. either it is a pretense or the word has been misunderstood.. 

Love the feminine energy 

Love is the glue of the social fabric .. love makes us empathizing, caring , protecting and nurturing in nature .. 

Unfortunately even love is misunderstood 

How often have we heard?

Nobody loves me ..🤔🤔

Arrey do you love yourself ? 

If the hotel owner is scared to eat in his own restaurant then why will others eat there .. ?? 😂😂

If we can't sell ourselves to ourselves then how will we sell it to others 🤔

So we see we have not  accepted and understood both the energies..

The whole universe is the illusion created by the "tug of war" between the dualities.. the nritya between feminine and masculine energy .. 

Why balance these energy ? 

Ego as we said is not bad .. but excess of anything is bad .. God gave us ego so that we can become co creators .. but as ego grows .. the "co" vanishes and we think we are The Creators 😂😂

How often we have heard 

"I AM A SELF MADE MAN" 

Arrey you forgot when you were needy and someone had pity on you and gave you your first break 🙇‍♀🙇‍♀🙇‍♀

Love also though termed as +ve energy has it's side effects .. 

Love was made to balance ego .. but too much love makes us overprotective .. and the worst part it makes us "Control seekers " 

It is said the purest form of "unconditional love" is Mother Son relationship.. 

If that's so why good mothers are bad "mother in law's" and good daughters are "bad daughter in laws" 🤔🤔

Now coming back to the point ..  balancing the energies as symbolized by Ardhanareshwar..

1Accept ego and love both as our allies .. 

2 live life as if watching a movie .. eg .. if someone praises us .. enjoy the praise .. boost your ego .. bask under the glory .. but don't take it home .. after we have relished the moment take a deep breath and say nice movie .. 

Similarly when we love someone set them free .. if they do something against our expectations think that "O this is a part of the movie .. the script says so" .. if we get angry .. experience the anger .. experience the pain .. but again don't take it home .. 

Similarly we can experience lust , hatred , jealousy, grief etc etc like a movie ...

The more we practice it the more we will become neutral .. and we will become embodiment of "Unconditional Love"

Law of detachment to the karma
