Are you looking to empower yourself? Do you feel that the time you have is not enough? Do you feel that energy does not reach you? You already have power, you have all the time and energy in the world, only that in many cases you have no conscience about where, to whom or how you are delivering it.

Polarities.

Having expanded on coherence and incoherence,

On heat and cold,

Namely on opposites,

We are entitled to start speaking about polarities.

Polarities direct our way because they tell us what our center is.

In this dual world,

We inhabit,

Absolutely everything has an opposite or a double.

Cold,

Hot.

Nice,

Ugly.

Tall,

Short.

Fat,

Thin.

Responsibility,

Victimization.

Materiality,

Spirituality.

Day,

Night.

Life,

Death.

Man,

Woman.

Avendance,

Luck.

Health,

Disease.

We can divide the benefits of working with our polarity in two big areas.

The first is to be able to identify which polarity is coming to my life to be integrated.

And the second is to be able to identify which my center is.

A brief example.

John is a very good man.

He has had a significant spiritual development.

He has realized that he finds happiness in giving others what they need.

John even arouses the admiration of many people when someone speaks of his actions.

But John is sometimes surprised because he doesn't want to be single.

And every now and then he wonders how a man whom everyone calls kind could be in that state.

From the point of view of the law of polarity,

We could say that the energy involved in being good to others has nothing to do with energy needed to work on a polarity which contemplates being or not being in a relationship.

When John is generous,

He works on the give-receive polarity.

He doesn't work on the single in-a-relationship polarity.

It is extremely important to know this because on many occasions we want to solve one polarity by working on a completely different polarity,

Which has nothing to do with my real problem.

If what John wants is to be able to meet his future couple,

He will have to work on those aspects that make up that polarity.

So,

For example,

He can begin to define internally what he is looking for in a couple.

What characteristics does a couple have with what ends he seeks a partner.

And he can start to generate the space in his life so that the couple can come.

Or don't you know many cases of people who say that they don't find a partner but do some of the following things.

For example,

They don't leave their homes,

Don't frequent groups of friends or engage in conversations with others because they are lazy.

For example,

They believe that their time has passed,

Or they believe that the one doesn't exist,

Or they think that everybody is equal to what they already knew.

Or,

For example,

They don't address,

Prepare,

Align or even sanitize to share with another.

Or they develop false expectations about what a couple should be if she or he doesn't have such study,

Or such work,

Or such last name,

Or such income as if that were the place to be taken by a couple.

Or,

For example,

They have false ideals about what there is out there,

Build false ideals of blue princes and princesses,

And even think they should come to their doors looking for them.

We can also rise it on another dimensions of life,

Such as the family,

For example.

Imagine a situation where parents get divorced,

And by family arrangements the father has less time to share with their children because they live with their mother.

In scenarios like this you may wonder,

Why is it that many of these parents want to solve emotional problems with their children by giving them money?

Because parents unconsciously perceive that there is something missing,

That there is an energetic space which is empty.

And since in the universe there are no such empty spaces,

Automatically these empty spaces are filled.

Now,

If as parents they decide to fill that gap with money,

The energy that this space takes up doesn't fulfill their kid or themselves.

Because what belongs to such place is something different like care,

Love or presence.

We cannot cure an illness with money,

We cure it with health.

We cannot feel scarcity with love.

Love doesn't pay the light bill.

Hunger doesn't go away with entertainment.

This principle is key to get organized.

If we start to take in everything we have learned so far,

That nothing is still,

That everything is bound to change,

And that opposites exist in everything which has been created,

We have already started to understand that this movement and transformation happen between what we call polarities.

And the speed in which this transformation movement is produced is called rhythm.

That is the period of time and the journey between,

For example,

The path from being cold to being hot.

Rhythm is a quality in the natural strength of the whole existence.

Rhythm gives us a sunrise and a sunset,

A sun which brings light and a moon which announces darkness.

Rhythm is the process I undergo and go through when I wake up one day in a terrible mood and in the afternoon I manage to change that state into a more pleasurable one.

Rhythm gives movement to the universe so that it,

While on its way,

Is able to integrate,

From a much wiser standpoint,

What it has already gone through.

The fact that the sun rises and sets every day doesn't mean that I may feel or experience the same with respect to this apparently repetitive event.

Rhythm is what guarantees us the change of scenarios.

But at the same time,

It pursues an evolutionary and integrative goal.

When experiential scenarios are generated,

Rhythm and polarities also work as our precisions,

Created by ourselves.

The combination of both rhythm and polarity lead us to experience happy moments as well as sad moments,

Moments of plainfulness as well as moments of scarcity,

Moments of health as well as moments of sickness.

And so,

Year after year,

We keep on generating experiences which wear us out and have a high energy cause for the being.

The good news is that each poison contains in its core the soul information to cure it.

If we combine these three principles of vibration,

Polarity and rhythm,

We can put into practice the search for balance.

This is the scenario where the transcendence occurs.

Now I need you to use all the power of your imagination one more time.

It is important that you exercise this power constantly.

Our imagination is the possibility to create unknown scenarios and shapes from the elements you possess inside yourself.

Once more,

The good news is that all the elements of the universe live within yourself.

Therefore,

Your imagination and co-creation can be unlimited.

With your imagination,

Create the image of a pendulum.

You could have a photo of it and spare you problems,

But remember that for your brain to possess small connections and therefore more answers,

You need to train it to take it to unknown territory where you will invite it to reconfigure itself as never before.

This pendulum is composed of three parts,

A nut,

A steel cable and a steel ball.

Imagine that you are in your bedroom and you are giving shape to this pendulum.

First,

Mentally draw a nut firmly attached to a fixed point in the ceiling.

Then,

From this nut,

A steel cable hangs from it to end in one extreme with a heavy steel ball.

Now,

I would like to make an analogy with this image and invite you to think that the point that joins all these on one extreme in the ceiling is your spirit.

Your spirit is your origin,

The great creator.

He knows everything,

But he is only a potentiality.

When co-creation is shot out from the spirit to be materialized,

It uses a channel,

The soul,

Which in this case is the steel cable tied to the extreme of the ceiling.

And this,

In turn,

On its honorable journey to creation,

Ends up in a heavy steel ball,

In this case,

Your physical body.

The above mention is just a basic and linear summary of our basic structures as inter-dimensional beings.

As between these three elements,

Numerous events happen and numerous characters live.

But this is the basic image we need for you to acknowledge the difference and interconnection between your spirit,

Your soul,

And your body.

When you find yourself in the balance point,

What you find is not peace and harmony,

But the divine communion with your true spirit,

Which goes beyond the two concepts mentioned before,

As they are only expressions of a polarization for word and discontent.

There,

You reconnect again with the source.

What we experience as human is that we apply different forces to this steel ball with a view to finding answers.

And instead of letting the ball stay still in the center to be able to obtain such answers,

What we do is throw the ball to the extremes.

One example of this would be the unstoppable surge of what we call spirituality.

Where the more you search and the more you try to practice this spirituality,

The more you throw the ball to one of the extremes.

Thus,

Completely forgetting that the only thing you generate is a new potential energy.

A potential energy as the one the spirit had when it was born and it decided to start its quest to creation.

But with a lesser level of creation,

As you are standing off one polarity and not on the whole potentiality.

The rule is proportionally direct.

The more you go to one extreme,

The more force you generate in the other extreme.

What we didn't have it in this case.

On the other side of spirituality,

Materiality.

And what have we said previously?

The more you try to keep this situation,

The stronger the force of the universe will be to move you from such a place.

There will come a moment in which the force that matter exerts on you overcomes your resistance and it is there where you'll be expelled to the other extreme of the pendulum.

Going past the balance point only for a thousandth part of a second.

And therefore,

You will still be disconnected from your true self.

Which will make it more difficult to find yourself in your own truth.

After having spent so much time polarized in spirituality,

Now you find yourself in the other extreme.

Inhabiting the experience of the matter.

In this pole,

You are not able to generate the money you need to live in the way you constantly repeat yourself you should live.

And for some reason,

Those statements somebody recommend you to repeat over and over again don't work.

Or you find yourself in a place where all your energy is focused on supporting this extreme of the steel ball.

Because you have devoted yourself to generating matter along the ears and have created so much matter that such matter needs as time goes by more of your energy to be supported.

So by fighting with the weight to support,

You feel that in the distance spirituality exerts more influence on you.

And believe me,

Eventually it will drag you to its pole.

This is the reason why you are reading this.

The aim of this chapter is that each being develops his own wisdom through experience.

Through acknowledging where his own point of balance is.

And here,

Unfortunately,

There are no books or techniques which might tell you how to do it.

In fact,

There is no spiritual technique or financial success technique or healing technique which other person has developed which might work for you.

You are a unique and irreplaceable being.

Only you will be able to grasp directions and experiences from the outside to be able to integrate them to your being.

And therefore,

Create your own weight of healing or road to financial success.

Remembering that the one you discover will be impossible to replicate for other beings.

It will only be a mere example.

Remember that you have to give the necessary energy to each thing and each time will be easier for you to know.

Those things you keep in a natural way don't tire you,

Don't overwhelm you.

If something is exhausting you,

It means that your being is making an extra effort to stay where it should not.

Let's pose an example.

Instead of having to go on a diet every six months,

You had better choose to have healthier eating habits and occasionally treat yourself with something you really like.

Regardless of whether you might consider it healthy or not.

The path you have gone through up to now will allow you,

When you stop to serve the world and its history or the events of your own life,

To easily start identifying that there was an idea which triggered an action,

Mentalism,

Which had an intention or an aim,

Vibration,

Which adopted a specific shape to be executed,

Correspondence.

Based on a biased conception of reality,

Polarity,

Which exerted some influence on everything,

Cause and effect.

And that in time those who had a different idea and had already been moved from their axis by another idea had a stronger comeback,

Rhythm.

To end up crashing into the previous idea which had moved them away from their axis,

Generation.

Thus creating a new cycle in history.

At Recon I don't need to pose any historical example.

You can easily think about that.

But what you really must know is this.

You are a part of this movement.

And if you are not aware of this,

You will only help us to live in extremes completely polarized.

Before incorporating more different universal forces as we have done until now,

I would love to go back to talk about stress.

Let's go on with the example of the diet.

Let's suppose you are a polarized person who hasn't kept his balance and has put on some kilos.

You start a diet where what you will apply is a force which is the opposite of the one which led you to put on weight.

And so you will go to one extreme of the polarity to recover your balance.

The secret is knowing where to stop.

Why?

To avoid polarizing yourself.

And what will you do once you have achieved such state?

You will start to see where your balance lies regarding your eating habits.

Now,

What happens when we are on a diet?

If we are polarized,

When we go back on our steps to the center,

The balance point,

We become tempted by all those things that we can no longer eat.

For example,

The precious chocolate.

And the way we choose to walk back to our centers finds its first enemy,

The one we mentioned at the beginning of the book.

Habit.

Let's suppose you are a strong-willed person and while you are on a diet,

You feel tempted by some chocolate you see on your fridge.

You crave for it,

But finally you refuse to eat it.

Great!

Bravo!

Congratulations!

Well,

Here we have a little problem.

You have provided your body with a big amount of stress.

The moment you opened the fridge and saw the chocolate,

Your imagination and your co-creative power,

Of which you can acknowledge only a part of it,

Put into motion all the materialization machinery and went for the chocolate.

There,

Your mouth began to water,

Just as you are doing now.

Your stomach started releasing chemicals and enzymes while waiting for a cocoa and sugar.

Your brain focused on the food,

Getting rid of the bananas and the oranges on the way,

And at the same time sent a signal through the shoulder,

Forearm and hand to grasp the chocolate.

And in the middle of all this chaos of synchronicity and perfection,

An unexpected voice says,

Don't eat it.

And then a counter machinery is activated.

We have to stop producing chemicals and to achieve this we need to create more chemicals.

We have to stop our muscles and give a counter order.

And there is where an internal battle breaks out,

Which ends up with a stressed person.

It's the same human being who has himself caused a mood which entails using part of his energy,

And that later,

By contradicting his own decisions,

Need to generate a new opposite mood which will deprive him of even more energy.

All this process and all this existential dilemma,

Only alive in the creator's mind,

Can become a castrides or a muscular pain,

Whose origin the human being is likely to be unaware of.

What would the solution be?

If you're on a diet,

Don't eat all the chocolate.

Just get a small bite and go with the banana.

This rule is applicable to everything we embark on in life.

We unleash our imagination.

We imagine the ideal job,

The ideal partner,

The ideal house,

The ideal salary.

We put into motion all our co-creative machinery to finally say no.

With the economic situation our country is in,

We cannot do what we love.

With all the unfaithful people out there,

I'm not able to find a partner.

With what I earn,

I cannot afford a house.

A stressed human comes from his continuous oscillation between the present he lives and the past and the future.

The past limits him because it has taught him the leading information he knows and has brought him where he is now.

His presence slipped through his hands because,

When limited by the shape of past contractions,

He thinks he can start from that basis towards a future he doesn't know.

And the point is that neither the past or the future exist.

You have heard this thousands of times.

Even this day repeats time after time that you have to live in the present.

And if I explain it in a rational way,

Maybe today you will be able to understand it.

The past and the future are no more and no less than polarities.

And the present is the center where our spirit lives.

In economy wars,

Trying to stay in both states will only lead you to life bankruptcy.

To begin with,

All your past is based on partial ideas and fantasies,

Which,

Although to you they might seem extremely real and have a real and concrete effect on your life,

Only a little part of them might have happened the way you think they happen.

Those traumas you have with your parents or with that brother you are on no speaking terms with are only fantasies of something that happened,

Which day after day you nurture it with your energy.

How?

Each time you had access to your fantasy memory,

You fill it with more information and emotions from the present you were living.

Thus,

Changing the situation in your reality.

And you know,

There is something you have never been told.

The past can be modified.

You only have to broaden your vision of your past,

Understanding how limited your viewpoint is and how big your lack of understanding of it is.

But this is only done in the present by modifying yourself.

On the other hand,

How much do you think you can imagine?

How many possible futures have you pictured in your mind?

You living alone and dying alone?

You with a partner?

You with a partner and a children?

You with your ideal job and traveling around the world?

You with a family and a dream house?

You dead due to an illness?

You unhappy with your family?

Have you imagined other scenarios?

Let's say something more?

And based on those fantasies which are not so different from the ones I have already described to you,

You have devoted yourself to co-creation.

Now,

If the universe is so vast and infinite,

How many possibilities do you think it may have for you?

The number of possibilities you think may happen will be exactly the number of possibilities the universe has for you.

When you imagine the future,

You just limit it.

You try to grab it infiniteness and create images of something you don't even know whether it exists or not.

Let the future be infinitely potential,

Because we came here to experiment and not to control creation.

Whatever you wish,

It should have to do with your present need of realization.

Just bear in mind when you are in balance which your most important wish is.

But don't shape it.

Don't limit the infinite geometry of the universe.

Just connect with emotion all these triggers in you.

If they don't unleash emotions in you,

If the sole idea of imagining it doesn't thrill you,

Therefore there are only fantasies and distractions of a future you don't really want.

Fantasies and distractions which were created by your own ego.
