Duality
“I think I understand more and more how valuable variety in experience is and what a great gift duality is.” said the student.
“And how does that feel?” asked the master.
“It feels very good!” the student rejoiced further.
“Then enjoy this moment” the master smiled at him”for right now your seesaw of experiencing is balanced between feeling and understanding.”
“How brilliant…!” laughed the student “To describe the duality of life like this,
and it is so simple:
Head & Heart, Mind & Feeling, Hate & Love, Fear & Trust… all simply two ends of the seesaw of being human.
And isn’t it wonderfully crazy that just the variety and diversity all by itself keeps giving us moments of harmonious balance where the seesaw stands still?”
“Yes it is…” the master rejoiced with him. “It is ingenious, wonderful and above all
worth experiencing!”
