MessagePaulino,
so you agree that the integration of opposites is the way to go in terms of spiritual cultivation?
I agree that culturaly we're not at that stage now, but that's no reason to activly partisipate in pushing our culture further and further into polarity.
>>In turn, we have an obligation to fight for justice and against evil.<<
so this is a duality - justice and evil. obviously *your* view of reality is 'the true one' so you're fighting for justice - and most others, who do not see the world through your unique perspective are obviously wrong - so they're supporting evil - right?
So if you forget the specific lables 'justice' and 'evil' - and just have them as yin and yang - then is what you're doing really following this high practice of integrating opposites if you just support and push exclusively one side of the duality?
I hope you see that pushing just one side of the seesaw down, inveriably brings the other side up!?
The fact is you're not the only one 'fighting' (or more like getting angry) for justice - the israelis, the palestinians, george bush are all at it - and all it does is create further duality - which creates further opposite *extremes* between war/peace, wealth/poverty, health/illness etc.
Forget about specifics - if everyone followed your advice and fought for *what they think is justice* then the world would be in a further turmoil than it is now!
