I will try to
explain what it is truly like being neutral in one's own expressions and being.
Being
neutral isn't about not taking sides, it's about how we take sides.
Extract: “Neutrality, a good place to visit, and a strong place to live”
Another way of strengthening your energy,
and to stay in knowing and living your purpose, is to get neutral. “By shifting
into neutral we get power!”
In my mind, this
article explains what being neutral is all about, however, the use of
expressions like positive and power therefore control, is not of a neutral
being. Firstly, being positive isn't neutral and power or empowerment simply
refers to power and control over something else. Usually something that is in
opposition to being positive and empowered. Being neutral simply means one is
not limited or controlled by fixations or desires. We have simply been
conditioned to the feelings that empowerment and being positive give us; of
course all this has created is another fixation. Considering that our present
reality is chaotic and destructive, fixating ourselves to any kind of
empowerment and positiveness makes us feel better in such a reality. The trick
to being neutral is not to look at a chaotic destructive reality as being
negatives or positive; it's simply a journey that is different to
other journeys that are not as chaotic and destructive.
A lot of people
have the idea of being neutral that you don't do anything in opposition to
anything else, another energy source. In a sense this is true, you don't do
anything in opposition to anything else but you can influence change upon
another energy source without being in opposition and this is the trick. Trying
to influence another energy source from within isn't about being in opposition
but about being neutral to that source you are trying to influence. Being
neutral is all about staying away from perceptions that create separation and
division, for example, negative and positive, black and white, etc.
I would say that
using expressions like power and positivenenss in this article, was to attract
people who are anything but neutral towards their present environment or
reality. I don't myself use expressions like empowerment and positive because I
am not into attracting people through their desires and fixations. This might
seem silly, especially in regards that a lot of people simply look upon this
reality as being negative/toxic. These people are searching for something in
opposition to a chaotic destructive reality. I simply try to avoid anything to
attract people by using any kind of expression that separates and divides, in a
sense, I try to be true to my expressions.
To be honest, a
lot of people consort to the following, however, imagine what a totally neutral
existence would create. The article above that I have attached to this post
gives a brief outline of this. I have
also inserted further reading material at the end of this post that I consort
to more.
In short, we cannot grow, we cannot achieve authentic
discovery, and our eyes cannot be cleansed to the truly beautiful possibilities
of life, if we simply live a neutral existence.
Adjective. The definition of neutral is
not taking part in a fight or war or having very little color. An example
of neutral is a person who does not take
sides in an argument between two friends. An example of neutral is
the color tan.
So
if I see an obvious coloured person, I have to see them as being tan to be
neutral? No, they are coloured but not coloured in opposition or negative in
anyway to me being white. Within this perception, you are not deceiving
yourself nor are you separating and dividing yourself from anything that is
different to you. Let's be honest here, self-deception is an abuse of energy
and something that often creates more separation and division. Is seeing an
obvious coloured person separation? If I only see a coloured person instead of
a human being, yes, most definitely but I don't. How many people only see
empowerment and being positive as being the only constructive way to exist?
This is exactly like seeing a coloured person as being coloured therefore negative;
you focus more on the colour than anything else.
We
so often perceive that being positive is good to negative being bad, is this
not of the same mentality that white people are positive and black people are
negative? Of course it is. Is the sun negative and toxic because it's one of
the most violent destructive sources of energy within our solar system? Of
course not, this is how a person who is remotely neutral thinks. Why separate
the suns violence and destructiveness from mans violence and destructiveness? We
often separate being positive to being negative as a positive, we simply focus
mainly on a positive being positive and empowering. To be a successful
multinational, you have to be positive and empowered. How destructive are
multinationals upon our environment?
Let's
be honest here with ourselves, most of us are conditioned to focus on the
colour of a man, not what the man truly represents, simply another energy
source on a different journey of life to ourselves. Our present reality is simply
another journey of many other journeys. Being neutral isn't about not taking
sides, like taking sides to being neutral to not being neutral, it's
about the way we take sides. Being neutral in myself as much as
possible isn't of the perception that not being neutral is negative, it's
simply seeing that all else from being neutral is not neutral therefore of
separation and division. Being of separation and division isn't negative, it's
simply a different way to exist and perceive to being neutral.
The
side I have chosen is to be neutral as possible, so even choosing to be neutral
is taking sides but it is different in the way we take side to when we are not being
neutral. It's by no mistake that the antonym to neutral is negative and/or
positive, so to be neutral is taking a side but not in opposition to negatives
and positives. It simply comes down to how we take sides, this of course is simply
done by not perceiving in negatives and positives being bad or good, wrong and
right, etc.

Extract: When a pattern is brought to neutral we’re no longer bothered by
it. Thinking of the issue no longer evokes a response,
positive or negative. We’re no longer polarized. When we think of the issue
it’s just neutral.
When we meet a situation that used to trigger us, now it simply
informs us, clearly. Now we’re free to express as we’re moved to be
in this moment. We’re freer to make a choice that’s no
longer influenced by our patterning. We’re freer to open to our innate knowing
and know how to respond in a manner that’s appropriate for
all involved.
Extract: We
constantly evaluate our world throughout our day. We have to; it’s part of
human nature and it’s survival. However, too often evaluation becomes judgment.
Judgment becomes bias. Bias leads us down the path of whatever emotion is tied
to that bias, be it resentment, guilt, or even joy. Sometimes this path takes
us to a very narrow space where we can get stuck. But what if we could evaluate
without heading down that path of attachment?
