Both Sides of the Coin

 When I allow myself to be Served, I can be of Service to others. - Seven Stones Leadership

The Law of duality is one lesson that I am truly happy that I discovered.  It allowed me to accept, as the old adage says, that there are two sides to every coin but ultimately there is one coin. 

There is day and night - separated only by time

There is life and death - separated only by breath

According to ancient wisdom, What becomes problematic with the Law of Duality is when we start thinking that one aspect of the spectrum is better than the other aspect of spectrum. We get into labeling things as right or wrong.  Unlike mankind’s laws and morals, there is no right or wrong.  For example, in America they drive on the right side of the road.  In England they drive on the left side of the road.  Who is right and who is wrong?  Similarly there are no good or bad experiences.  Experiences are just experiences nothing more, nothing less.  What one learns from the experience is all that counts.  We have all had experiences that initially proved unpleasant but they became the greatest thing that happened to us.

All of this allowed me to see things from different perspectives, to remember that there are two sides to each coin and to keep an open mind. The Law of Duality reminds me to work for, rather than against. 

Duality moves towards balance. The aim is to be in balance, rather than to be in extremes. It in an ongoing journey.

This is what the Law of Duality is all about. It is about remaining at your centre even when the hurricane of life is swirling around you.
