The Struggle within

[Anonymous 0]

The YinYang inside me, it is more than this.

It seems that there are two individuals in me, but only one can be present, the white one or the black one but never both at the same time.

The white is always acting with a sharp and a clear mind. The heart is courageous and the right decisions will be made. His self-control is high and he is respectfully against others and always acting like a winner. He trusts in himself and thus other people trust him. Everyone will get good advices and is pleased to follow him.

When the black one comes to the spot the dispute takes place and he is out for fighting everyone for no obviously reason. He is acting like an angry animal forced into a corner. His bad behavoiur is just the reaction of all what happens to him in the past and the things will happen in the future and the fear that he cannot control them.

Both of them are fighting against each other. The aim is to control my mind.
As a technical educated man I know about the power of energy, it is not reacting even in the technical stuff, also in mind things. If you put your energy into something, it will react or let me say it must react because there is no other way. Energy cannot be generated or exhausted, it just can be tranformed from one energy form to another. The energy is always present.

If the two individuals are fighting against each other the winner is the one with the most power, thus with the most resource of energy.

The fact is clear, giving the white one the energy detracts the energy of the black one.

But what is the thing which avoids to give the energy to the right one? There is something deeper, it is called fear. Fear is just a feeling. It is inside you and tells you when to run away or to take care of yourself. But isn’t it also an instrument, a tool for conditioning your mind ?

The fear as a primal emotion is used against you most of the time. So it is important to get over it. Don’t get me wrong, it is a feeling which can safe your life, but in the modern world we life in today, it is easy to get over it. But a lot of people are using fear to manipulate you. The insurance industry, your boss telling you that you will lose the Job if don’t do it right, the government just set up the cold war to keep people in fear and they all did make and make a lot of money with it.

Just observing yourself, control your thoughts and turn the bad ones to good ones. That is where the energy investment should go. The white is getting brighter wihle black wastes away and no fear will take control. You cannot change the past but the future is yours.

There is an opinion that I agree with. It states that we’re not a uniform one personality, but instead – a multitude of personalities. They present themselves at certain times in different ways.. but it’s not some kind of disorder (normally), but something completely natural. We just think that this is some kind of struggle, but in fact – all of these little traits, habits and ways of thinking are standalone. If they don’t compliment each other – it appears that we have some internal struggle. But only simple-minded people have no internal conflict, only two-dimensional folks have everything clear.

That reminds me of a Native American example, albeit it’s in much simpler terms.

 

A young boy is speaking with the elder of his tribe

The boy ask, “Elder, I’ve been feeling really sad lately and i don’t know what to do”

The elder responds, “Young boy, from the time we are born, there are 2 wolves inside of us. The White Wolf, representing peace, self worth, kindness and self-actualization. And then there is The Black Wolf, which represents wrath, self loathing, hate and self-pity. And every moment these 2 wolves fight inside of you, equal in strength and wisdom.”

The boy ask, “If they are equal, then which one is victorious ?”

To which the elder responds, “The one you feed the most.”

 

But to be more relevant and on topic, in general i do agree with this idea, i just have 1 thing i don’t. That is fear. You are right, fear is something mostly used against you, but that doesn’t make fear evil. Fear is a primal emotion. Fear can be considered the most true primal emotion, because fear shows us our weaknesses. Fear isn’t something we should just, “get over”. We must learn from our fears, not dodge them. The fear you speak of is a emotional fear.

I believe in our world, we each hold 3 “energies” inside of us. Ill coin them as energies to relate to your topic. These 3 energies are the Physical Energy, The Emotional Energy, and the Mental Energy.

In primal days, Physical Energy was primary. It was required. The strong hunter, the fast hunter. These were the men that ate and not only survived, but thrived. In these days, fear mainly derived itself from physical harm, such as being eaten or killed by wild animals or other hunters.

As civilization grew onwards, Mental Energy took lead over Physical Energy. We began to make massive progression in Science, Medicine, Agriculture and Engineering. Days of mindless hunting turned into days filled with progress and wonders to be turned into reality. In this time, fear began to derive less from the world around us and the physical harm it could bring, and more from the human imagination. Phobias of things like the dark for example.

Then, sadly, we reach todays age. In todays age, the “need” for the Physical and Mental energies has worn down, and with multiple ages of love, poetry, music and literature, the Emotional energy has taken hold. In the society we live in today, from the time we are born, we are subject to all 3 energies, but by far the most prominent is the Emotional energy. Fear of the Emotional energy is derived from things such as Social Status, Acceptance, Love and Rejection. This is the fear you speak of.

Anyways, thats my take on it. As i said, i just call them “energies” to relate to your original post. I don’t really have a name for what to call it, but it’s just what i think. Overall a good post, and if you read this far then you have to much time on your hands. (Just kidding, thanks for reading, cheers)
