10,000 slaps to your face
How do you know? How can you say that so definitively?
Through experience of being faced daily with imbalances, and having the choice to actively balance them or passivley let them be.
So imbalances do not exist? What about your concept of karma and emotional attachment, is that not an imbalance in your cosmology?
>>”If you look at it from a single point of you, it’s polarized, but if you take all of it as a mass, it’s in harmony.”
I look at it as both, and deal with it on both levels.
If ya got something to say, can you try again?
thanks,

*Totally agree. The view and the viewer are one.
>>”the view and the viewer are one”
Ultimately interconnected, yes, but in the sense of free will, no.
I harmonize the microcosm to harmonize with the macrocosm, but for practical purposes the microcosm is not the same as the macrocosm though they are obviously connected.

*There is no view without a viewer. There is no viewer without a view. Free will depends on the action of the viewer. How you choose to act on the view, determines the level of free will. If you choose to only view, it is not the real non-action. One attains non-action by action. I also harmonize the microcosm.
Harmonizing the microcosm means acting on the viewer so that he may ‘see’ the view differently.
True that everything is interconnected and interdependent. My point is that there is a difference between being merged into the collective mind with no individuality, and being merged while maintaining an individual sense of free will.

*I was trying to embrace your point, I agree with it.
