BALANCED
Renowned philosopher and author achieving balance in our lives.
Dr John F. Demartini
“We do not see things the way they are, we see them the way we are.” In every action and reaction, every motion and emotion and every event whether positive or negative there exists the essence of a greater purpose. Every aspect of life is part of an implicate order and it is our accountability to awaken to this great truth. I have been blessed to work with thousands of individuals worldwide that were unknowingly seeking the order of the pains they had experienced in the past. Whether it be emotionally, physically or mentally, in each circumstance, I was able to demonstrate the illusion of pain and pleasure and the truth of ‘perfect balance’ that I share with you now.
“There is suffering in heaven, for where there is the capacity for pleasure there is the capacity for pain.” William Blake

All positive and negative particles in the universe are created simultaneously, in perfect one-to-one balance. Because our physical senses are bipolar and dualistic, they need some sort of imbalance to function. We cannot sense the outer world without an asymmetry, a contrast. Our fingers cannot feel without a contrast between texture and temperature, and we can not see, hear, smell or taste without some contrast between things. For example, we cannot see in a pure white snowstorm or a pitch black cave because there has to be some sort of differentiation. Our senses are therefore pre-programmed to perceive a world that is lopsided and asymmetrical, and cannot detect anything else.

It is these imbalanced sensory perceptions of the many common events in daily life that initiate varying degrees of stress. Stress ultimately boils down to imbalanced muscular or physiological reactions. In effect, this brings disorder in the mind and a polarity of moods. After many years as a Doctor of chiropractic, I realised to bring lasting balance to the body, we must first bring balance to the mind. However, many are confused as to how this is possible.

There is a phenomenon that exists in physiology called bi-aural fusion that occurs in states of perfect balance. To illustrate this, imagine hearing a sound on your right side at a certain distance and location, and another sound on your left side at the exact yet opposite distance and location. What would you hear? If they hit the same frequency, decibel level, distance, and angle, the brain would not be able to differentiate between the two and the ears would actually stop functioning externally to create an experience that is called bi-aural fusion; a core state that centralises right down the central axis of your being and brings with it a comprehensible feeling of balance. The same phenomenon can occur with any of our senses; whenever we have perfect symmetry, perfect proportion, and perfect order, we have biaural, bi-visual, and bi-kinesthetic fusion. When we realise that pain and pleasure remain perfectly balanced at every moment of our existence are we able to transcend our outer perceptions and become emotionally balanced from within. We become liberated the moment that we realise this balance and observe the perfect equilibrium around us. It is this profound and transformative state the inner voice, the inner vision, and the inner feeling dominate the outer senses and we have the capacity for divine revelation and become guided with an amazing degree of clarity. It is also in this state that our healing powers and true genius become awakened. The world is perfectly balanced, both within and without. The heart only opens when the mind becomes consciously equilibrated. While imbalanced emotions close it down. While there is a place for the many healing modalities and treatments we can seek for health and relaxation, it is essential we realise all healing starts in the mind. Perfect balance is therefore not what you do but instead what you think.
