Thanks - this helped another piece drop into place for me. All the gods we worship are aspects of the One, as are we, as is everything in the material and spiritual realms. It is easy to visualize a sentient loving positive force, but I have been thinking of negative as a void, a lack of positive. Seeing that the One would also have negative aspects, and that this force would also be sentient, makes sense. The Hindus had it right...
Oluwo is right good pays you back good it all an balance you can never have too much of one force your balance could not handle this love and blessings ase
@HPDolemite I am always amused by pseudo intellectuals, Did you fail to notice that you had to use "words" to explain your "label"? Had you listened to my videos you would know I do not believe in Evil...only in choices, the result of which are either positive, negative or neutral.
I'm not a intellectual at all, I'm a proud Subgenius, but thats besides the point.
Even choices themselves are not "positive" or "negative". What one might consider a "Evil" choice, the one who made the choice might see it as "good", from their viewpoint.
"Positive, Negative, and Neutral" are all relative to the one observing. And not a absolute all-encompassing truth.
@HPDolemite you are using what Ayn Rand called "the stolen premise." Meaning you are using semantics to prove semantics are invalid. A form of mental masterbation.
but how can you prove this 'balance' of energies? why does good need evil or evil need good? how can you be an authority on this? who was your teacher? why do you teach this? what if you are making a huge mistake on your teachings? you are leading many astray into the wrong path.
@odukeeper but you havent proven a 'balance' of enegies. You claim they exist, but how can you prove they exist to 'balance' out each other. Who taught you? Why are you an authority and why do you teach it?
@ighforever also, interesting you feel you must be taught...te Christian "word" is fixed concept. How about a world view that one can learn? Maybe even you.
I have a solid foundation, it is built on Christ Jesus. Amen
Jesus is the Son of God and God. Creator of all that is, and is the Truth itself. All that is was built on God's mind, his ways and Wisdom. All we can find out came from him, we havent really discovered anything in that respect, just uncovering and learning what God has done and has to Teach us. And yes God is my Teacher my Master and King. Submit to him and Learn all he has to Teach. Amen.
@ighforever ps. you weren't "taught"...you memorized. Learning requires using the analytical part of your brain to determine if what you are being told is valid.
I am not clear on all that you said, the woman who sought to use negative energy to achieve a selfish ends she died as a result?
Question: many say we create our own reality, but doesn't bad stuff happen to people outside their own thoughts? One can be a positive self actualized person and have positive affirmations etc. and be the victim of a mugging or rape without having 'called' it into their life. Do you agree or not?
@plutodrvv The answer is that they are totally separate issues. I would say that in the Ifa philosophy we believe that through Divination, AND good character, one would not be the victim of random or directed negative energy.

There is no such thing as Good/Evil, Positive/Negative, etc.
They are labels, just ideas created by humans, they dont exist, only Nature is real.
You cant balance what dosent exist. Wake up and realize we are nature, not "special race of humans who are "better" than the world we live in".

@ighforever because ALL exist...or haven't you noticed. Use the brain God gave you, not the doctrinal fear of your belief system.

@ighforever another automated brainwashed illogical answer. Did God talk to you during these lessons? No different than the Taliba. I rest my case
