The Most High requested that the following spiritual principles of
the Middle Stance be formulated and transmitted for consideration to
those who are interested in spiritual issues.
Throughout Creation and in the active Universal Multidimensional
Zone of Displacement there has been a tendency for some sentient
entities and humans to understand and to interpret concepts, ideas,
events and happenings in extremistic terms. This situation and
tendency has been going on for millennia. Each extreme has its own
revelators, philosophers, interpreters and numerous followers.
Basically, one can recognize in this respect two extremes which are
very often unreconcilable in their approach and views. One extreme
has a strong tendency to see and to interpret everything in Creation
and in the Zone of Displacement in purely spiritualistic terms. The
correctness of this stance stems from the fundamental spiritual
principle of Creation which states that everything which happens in
the entire Creation and its parts is always the result of the spiritual
state of affairs. This means that spiritual ideas occur which proceed
toward their becoming, and, by the process of their manifestation and
concretization in objective spiritual reality, they cause the occurrence
of events. For the defenders of this extreme, spiritual reality is the
only reality in being and existence. All else in Creation and outside of
Creation is regarded as having little or no importance. Despite the
fact that this is a correct view, disregard for other realities, which
derive from spiritual reality and have their own life, is an incorrect
aspect of this extreme spiritualistic stance.
The other extreme, in turn, has a strong tendency to see and to
interpret everything in Creation and in the Zone of Displacement in
purely local, naturalistic and so-called literal terms, perceiving
everything in a manner which is narrow and isolated from the rest of
Creation. The correctness of this stance stems from the fundamental
spiritual principle of Creation which states that any spiritual idea,
concept or thought, as it occurs, has a tendency to proceed toward its
becoming in order to become its own consequence and outcome in its
manifestation, actualization, realization and concretization everywhere
and everywhen in Creation and outside of Creation, particularly in the
natural degree and physical environment where it assumes the
fullness of its being and existence.
The incorrectness of this extreme naturalistic and literal stance is
in the fact that its defenders have a tendency to see these
consequences and outcomes as independent of their source. In other
words, the defenders of this extreme see them as self-causing, internal
events of the local natural, political, economic, social and
environmental interplay and constellation without any causative
connection to anything else in Creation. Yet everything in Creation is
interconnected on all levels, dimensions, degrees and steps of being
and existence. Even the Zone of Displacement maintains its life
support system through its connection with the real Creation of the
Most High by and through special agents, emissaries, messengers and
their followers who are capable of bridging the chasm by special
spiritual means.
In religious interpretations, for example, these extremes are seen
in the way people understand and interpret the content of the
prophecies which are recorded in the Christian Bible. The majority of
Christians interpret these prophecies in a literal, localistic sense
without any regard for their deeper, inner purely spiritual meaning
and sense which describes events in the various spiritual dimensions
and various states, qualities, levels, degrees, steps, etc., of good and
truth, evil and falsities and their combats. On the other hand many
people in the spiritual world and a minority on Earth have a tendency
to interpret these prophecies entirely and purely on a spiritualistic
level without any regard for their literal meaning and the possibility
of their literal fulfillment as described in political, social, economic or
cataclysmic natural terms in the Bible.
These two extreme understandings, interpretations and
conceptualizations are causing great confusion in the spiritual world,
the intermediate world, the natural world and the Zone of
Displacement (to the great delight and pleasure of the negative spirits
and all their Hells).
Now it is time that this situation be corrected, confusions removed
and a more appropriate understanding of a new practical spirituality
becomes available to all who are open.
Neither of the described extreme stances are correct in themselves
and by themselves. Only in combination, integration and unification
of both can one wisely discover the real truth and the work of the
Absolute Divine Providence of the Most High. Therefore, if one looks
upon them separately, one can say, using human statistical
probability terms, that each stance by itself without any regard for
the other stance is approximately 50% correct at any given time and
state as to its interpretation and probability of fulfillment.
A good example of this situation can be found in the prophetic
predictions, based on the literal sense of the Bible's prophets, that one
hears and sees on television and radio programs, such as, for example,
"Praise the Lord". According to these programs, all these
interpretations and predictions are purely literal, local and isolated,
related only to the political, economic, social, religious and external
events on Earth (this can be called a separatist stance). Little or no
regard is given to the inner spiritual meanings related to the spiritual
world and its events, which are manifested as consequences and
outcomes in Earthly events.
On the other hand many people in the spiritual world and some
Swedenborgians, as they understand and interpret Swedenborg's
Earthly writings, take the opposite extreme and tend to interpret
everything in purely spiritualistic terms, with little or no regard for
the fact that there is a 50% chance and probability that the literal
aspects of such spiritual events and ideas may be truly manifested
also in a purely literal sense as they are described in the Bible. In this
sense the preachers on such programs as "Praise the Lord" may be
50% correct in their interpretations of the literal sense of the
prophecies in the Bible.
The convincing example of such a literal fulfillment of these
prophecies can be seen in the history of some of Earth's nations. For
example, Babylon, Nineveh and many others spiritually signify, as
Swedenborg revealed, self-love in worship, or all that is filthy and
profane and those who deprive others of knowledge and
acknowledgment of truth (Babylon). In the New Testament Babylon
signifies the Roman Catholic religion as to its dogmas and doctrine.
Also it signifies utter deprivation of the goods and truths of faith.
Nineveh signifies, according to the spiritual understanding, falsities
of doctrinal things from reasonings, contrived by the selfhood; also it
signifies falsities from the fallacies of the senses in the obscurity of an
unenlightened understanding, or ignorance. Now, those who call
themselves Swedenborgians together with many in the spiritual world
have a tendency to stop there, and block themselves seeing further,
deeper and in an open-spreaded manner, disregarding any literal
sense. However, as everyone knows so well, the literal sense of the
prophecies about Babylon, Nineveh and many others also were
fulfilled and those nations which represented the above-mentioned
spiritual meaning, were physically destroyed and literally erased from
the face of the Earth (just as described in the literal sense of the
prophecies of the Bible).
Now, the preachers and their followers on the "Praise the Lord"
program and similar interpreters have a tendency in the opposite
direction: they see only the literal aspect of that situation in the
locality and isolation of those events to those nations on planet Earth.
They do not take into consideration any spiritual meaning or
significance as described, for example, by Swedenborg.
In view of this fact one can see clearly that neither stance by itself
is complete, full and exhaustive. Fullness, completeness and
exhaustiveness can come only from the wisdom of the so-called middle
stance which contains within itself the fullness of activities of the
Absolute Divine Providence of the Most High.
In this respect one can define the middle stance as a stance which
integrates, combines, unifies, incorporates and distributes evenly all
meanings, concepts, events and their consequences, outcomes and
manifestations to and from all and every standpoint, level, dimension,
degree, step, and time of the Most High's Creation and the Zone of
Displacement from the innermost to the outermost and outward
degree of being and existence without either exaggerating, neglecting
or underestimating any one aspect, position or stance.
From the standpoint of someone in the Zone of Displacement, as
well as anywhere and anywhen else, this definition is valid only with
the understanding that natural or physical consequences and
outcomes of the spiritual state of affairs will be actualized and
realized, as predicted, depending on current choices which nations,
countries, societies, people and individuals make at each step of the
physical phase of their lives.
The point here is that spiritual states and processes are extremely
fluid, progressive, changeable, mobile and flexible. There is nothing
finalistic about them.
How is this situation reflected in the world and Zone which is
relatively fixed, stationary, finalistic, rigid and difficult to change? It
is reflected in people's abilities to change any situation from their free
will by presenting them with continuous opportunities to make new
choices. In making certain choices, people can change the described
literal consequences and outcomes of any spiritual state or event, of
any prediction, since any spiritual state and process is, after all, fluid
and flexible, and contains within itself all possible alternatives of its
consequences, outcomes and manifestations. So, regardless of one's
choice, the alternative of any specific choice and its consequence is
contained in its spiritual state and process. By making certain choices
at each step, people trigger consequences and manifestations of
congruent alternatives of the overall spiritual states and events.
The proper understanding of the mystery of this interconnectedness
can be found only in the perception and conceptualization of any
positive spiritual state and spiritual world as a fluid, mobile and
flexible condition of being and existence. Any positive spiritual state
contains within itself all imaginable alternatives which are always
in the state of readiness to be actualized and concretized by people's
choices in all worlds. In this respect, it is not surprising to find that the
same spiritual state or event occurring in the spiritual world will be
manifested and actualized in various worlds and Zones in a different
manner depending upon the kind of alternatives of each such spiritual
state or event which were triggered by those Zones, people's and
societies' choices relevant to those worlds.
Unless this structure of spirituality and the nature of the Most
High's Creation is understood, one will always have a tendency to fall
back into the extremes of the interpretations, which disregard this
vital and fundamental principle of spirituality.
Thus, the literal sense of the prophecies and predictions of the
Bible, for example, may or may not be fulfilled, depending upon
spiritual choices which people on Earth make. Such choices determine
the spiritual alternatives to be manifested in their physical lives and
on their planet. Since societies and nations, as well as individuals,
very often choose the alternatives congruent with the literal sense of
the prophecies of the Bible, such prophecies are literally fulfilled.
The human language of externals, which dominates in this Zone of
Displacement, which is manifested by the use of the strict literal
sense of the Bible, cannot contain the synchronicity and simultaneity
of all the infinite numbers and varieties of available alternatives in
any spiritual concept, state, process or event. It is rigid and linear.
Therefore, it must describe events in their finalistic extremes. On the
other hand, spiritual language is not linear and it does contain in its
content all such alternatives. Therefore, that which in the literal
sense of the Bible sounds as a final, irreversible, unchangeable and
locked in state and condition, in its spiritual sense is described as a
potentiality for all alternatives of such a spiritual state to have equal
opportunities and chances to be triggered and occur.
The above description and explanation, which is not easily
understood by the human linear mind, can be considered a true
philosophical base for the middle stance approach toward these
matters. By it the Absolute Divine Providence of the Most High
operates and functions.
Although the Most High foresees all choices which people make in
the course of their entire being and existence to eternity, He/She does
not predetermine them but instead gives people all the alternatives
for their consideration from their free will without any interference,
imposition, duress, force or condition. Each chosen alternative
contains within itself all its consequences and outcomes. Because all
are known to the Most High, apart from time-space continuum linear
manifestation, in synchronous presence of all times and spaces from
eternity to eternity, nothing can be hidden from the Most High, and
the Most High knows what people are going to choose at each moment
of their manifestation in the linear time-space continuum of their
being and existence. From such a knowledge the Most High provides
everyone opportunities not only to fulfill the consequences and
outcomes of any choice, but also the awareness and ability to change
these outcomes and consequences. What seems to be inevitable in the
linearity of time-space continuum, is not so in the synchronicity and
simultaneity of the discrete mode of being and existence. Here it has
equal potentials and chances to be or not be projected for being
fulfilled in the linear mode of being and existence. This is the reason
why 100% predictions with regard to the people's destiny, choices and
their consequences and outcomes, because they are in the linear
aspects of being and existence and in their externals, can never be
made. The probability of fulfillment of such predictions and
prophecies can never exceed 50% in accuracy because of the human
factor, which in fact, is a spiritual factor — mobility, fluidity,
changeability and flexibility inherent in the essence and substance of
the spiritual nature of the Creation. As long as one is alive, no matter
where, when and under what conditions, one is a spiritual being,
because life comes from the Absolute Source of Life — the Most High.
This is the spiritual factor of anyone's life. This is a reflection of the
Absolute Nature of the Most High — Absolute Freedom and Absolute
Independency. Nothing is dictated and predetermined from such a
Nature. Therefore, people can and may change their destinies by
making different choices.
Having freedom and independence relative to the Absolute
Freedom and Independence of the Most High, all sentient entities and
humans are given enough room and freedom in their lives to actualize
and realize themselves in an infinite variety of modes. In this respect
and because of this, sentient entities and human's choices and their
consequences in the ultimate sense are unpredictable from the
standpoint of linearity of spatial-temporal continuum. However, in
the Absolute State and Condition of non-spatial-temporal
synchronicity and simultaneity, all choices and their consequences are
known because they occur synchronously in the totality of their being
and existence at the discrete level of Creation. There is no time and
linearity in this mode of Creation. But it is a different story when they
are projected into the linear mode of being and existence. Here all
choices, destinies, fates, etc., become basically unpredictable or
predictable only at the level of 50% accuracy because the various
alternatives of the spiritual states which correspond to such choices
and their consequences cannot be manifested synchronously and
simultaneously but in succession only, or not at all (if a different
choice is made).
This approach can be considered a true approach of the middle
stance. It reflects the spiritual philosophy of potentialities and choices
that always provide an equal opportunity to all alternatives of
spiritual states and process for coming through or being fulfilled in
various levels and Zones.
In order to better understand the philosophy of the middle stance,
it is necessary to formulate the following spiritual principles of this
stance.
1. Understanding, conceptualization, interpretation and correct
perception of any occurrence cannot be accomplished from the
extreme position because it is one-sided, limited, localized and of a
singular aspect. The Most High does not operate from extreme
positions but from the center to circumference in a simultaneous,
continuous and synchronous manner. Therefore, any occurrence must
have a simultaneous, continuous and synchronous impact throughout
all its meanings, senses, dimensions, levels, degrees, steps, times and
paratimes in being and existence. No preferences are given to any one
aspect or side or meaning because they are all interconnected in unity
and oneness of functions, and they are all equally important and
needed in the totality of the Most High's Creation and its being and
existence. Therefore, the true reality of any occurrence can be
properly apprehended from the middle stance only. This stance takes
in consideration all possibilities equally without one-sided emphasis
on any one singular aspect or one singular level of its manifestation.
2. The events in Creation are never limited to one level or aspect
only and, therefore, cannot ever be of isolated, local importance,
impact and implication without any connectedness and consequences
to the rest of Creation. Whatever happens in one place or state of
Creation has the ripple effect throughout all Creation without
exception or exclusion. It is true that there is always that first
occurrence that takes place without exception on the spiritual level,
which level is the source of any occurrence, and gives impetus to the
ripple effect. However, occurrence without its proceeding and
becoming has no usefulness and validity, no base and foundation, just
as proceeding into becoming cannot take place without its occurrence
first. Neither becoming is possible without the proceeding of its
occurrence. It is impossible to see reality properly and correctly from
the stance of either occurrence, or proceeding or becoming in
themselves, independently of each other, only. Such a stance would be
extremistic, depriving one from seeing things in the totality of their
manifestation, actualization and realization throughout all Creation.
Only in the middle stance can one discover the principle of the ripple
effect that gives one a sense of completeness and totality of any
occurrence, proceeding and/or becoming and their mutual
connectedness and interdependency.
3. There is a multiple level of interconnectedness and
interdependence of everything and everyone in being and existence.
One such level is effected by the process of continuity in linear mode
and fashion. The other level is effected by the process of simultaneity
in the discrete mode and fashion from the innermost to the outermost.
However, each level is simultaneously and synchronously discrete and
continuous at the same time. The discrete aspect of being and
existence by itself and in itself cannot take hold in reality without its
continuity, as the continuous aspect of being and existence does not
have any reality without its discrete aspect. The discrete aspect can
be conceptualized as the spirit of being and existence or their spiritual
aspect, while the continuous aspect can be conceptualized as the body
or form of being and existence. The discrete aspect, the spirit, is the
occurrence; the continuous aspect, the form, is the becoming. Both
these levels are intervened by the proceeding of the occurrence into its
becoming. This is an intermediate level which can be conceptualized
as the soul or mentality of being and existence. Neither of these levels
have totality without one another and they would lack any
substantial reality by themselves separately.
Therefore, seeing things in either the extreme spiritualistic stance
or in the extreme naturalistic stance considerably invalidates all
conclusions about the nature of events and happenings in being and
existence as well as being and existence themselves. Only in the
middle stance, which takes into consideration all possibilities and
alternatives equally, can one find the most approximate
understanding about the nature of events and happenings as well as
their consequences.
4. Everything in being and existence is in continuous motion,
progression and evolvement. As a result of such a nature of being and
existence, no event or happening or its consequence can have a final
or absolute validity leading to the situation of unchangeability and
stagnation. The Absolute Truth can be found only in the perception
that nothing, except for the Most High, is absolute and inevitable.
Instead, everything in being and existence is changeable and fluid.
Such a nature requires that everything in being and existence be
many-sided, multiplied, manifested and equally real, needed and
important. This gives to everything and everyone a constant
opportunity for continuous self-improvement, growth, betterment,
progression and evolvement. In such a nature is its mobility,
flexibility, fluidity and changeability.
The extremistic stance is always one-sided disregarding this true
nature of things in being and existence. Therefore, its validity is
limited only to one aspect, which aspect in itself and by itself does not
have any reality and life. Only the middle stance, which takes into
consideration the equal possibilities for manifestations of all aspects
at all levels, can properly and correctly approximate the true nature of
reality.
5. One of the major principles of being and existence and their life
is the principle of freedom. The nature of freedom derives from the
ability to choose from an infinite number and variety of alternatives.
No freedom can exist without such alternatives. In order for such
alternatives to be constantly available for choosing, all alternatives
are constantly present through their equal distribution throughout
the entire being and existence on all their levels, degrees, steps and in
all their dimensions in both the discrete mode and continuous mode
simultaneously and synchronously. Only this kind of arrangement
provides all sentient entities and humans with freedom of choice, on
which freedom their life depends. No one in being and existence could
survive for a fraction of a second without this freedom and
alternatives from which to choose. Now, these alternatives are
constantly in the state of readiness to be triggered by choices. The
state of readiness is an active, fluid state. It is a state of constant
actualization and realization. Since all alternatives are evenly
distributed throughout all being and existence, they are manifested in
their various aspects and forms at all levels, degrees, steps, etc., of
being and existence relevant to the nature and condition of each level,
degree, step, etc., of being and existence. Thus they all appear
everywhere and everywhen in the form and nature which is relevant
to, needed by and appropriate to every singular aspect of being and
existence. The true reality of any such alternative can be found only
in the totality of all its aspects, forms and contents as it is concretized
in a synchronous, simultaneous and continuous fashion throughout all
levels of being and existence.
Now, the extremistic stance takes into consideration only one
possibility for such a manifestation of any alternative. Such a stance
violates the vital and fundamental spiritual principle of freedom by
isolating and limiting any alternative as to its level or its aspect to
only one. Only in the middle stance can one find the most
approximate view and comprehension of the reality of freedom and
alternatives because only the middle stance is truly free. The extreme
stance can never be free because of its self-exclusivity, self-isolation
and one sidedness.
6. The operation of the Absolute Divine Providence of the Most
High takes place from the position of the center as in a ball-like
sphere. Only from such a position can the entire being and existence
of their totality be properly governed, maintained and continuously
added onto. The center of the ball-like sphere is equally present in any
of its part or place simultaneously and continuously, being always the
center of any part or place, comprising the ball-like sphere of being
and existence. Therefore, any activity of the center is simultaneously,
synchronously and continuously reflected in any part or place of the
ball-like sphere at any given moment. Nothing can ever be left out or
uneffected because the life of the ball-like sphere is derived from its
center.
Any extremistic stance is lopsided and does not come from the
center. It violates the principle of even distribution of effects of
activities of the center throughout being and existence. Only in the
middle stance can one find the most approximate understanding of
how the Absolute Divine Providence of the Most High operates and
governs the entire Creation.
7. One could theoretically conceptualize the entire Creation as a
huge building and the Most High as founder and builder of this
building, being its foundation and base. This huge building has many
levels, stories, rooms, compartments and divisions. In all of them
continuous activities are going on unceasingly. The entire building
with all its parts stands and is dependent, in its proper functioning,
on its foundation. Whatever is happening in its foundation has an
immediate impact on all levels, stories, rooms, compartments and
divisions of that building and its entire structure. Everything without
exception is influenced by such activities of the foundation. The
response to and impact of such activities will vary in accordance with
the quality and proximity of each level and part of the building to the
foundation. But no matter what this proximity and quality are, they
all will be affected to some degree and extent.
In this connotation it is impossible to isolate one level or story of
this building and proclaim that it is unaffected by such an activity or,
on the other hand, that a room or story is the only one which is
effected by the foundation and all else in the building has nothing to
do with that foundation and its activities. This is exactly what the
extremistic stance does. Therefore, the more one relinquishes such a
stance and adopts the principle of the middle stance, which sees
things in their totality and equality of their aspects and alternatives,
the more one grows spiritually.
8. The relatedness of various sentient entities is based upon the
infinite number and variety of the type, quality, quantity and content
of their relationships. In order to establish such relationships, it is
necessary to have a knowledge of the different possibilities and their
outcomes and the degree of usefulness any relationship can serve.
Such a knowledge is acquired by being connected to all alternatives of
a choice and, thus, to all sentient entities and humans in being and
existence through the Most High's presence in everyone's Inner Mind.
The Most High is the Center of everyone. This is the common
denominator of all sentient entities and humans in being and
existence. Even in the Zone of Displacement the Most High is the
Center of the Inner Minds of its inhabitants. The difference between
the former and latter is in the attitude to and recognition of this fact.
While people in the positive state of being and existence recognize,
accept and apply this fact, their counterparts in the Zone of
Displacement deny, reject or distort it (with exclusion of those who
are on a special mission from the Most High in that Zone). Yet even
the inhabitants of the Zone of Displacement are connected to the
positive state by the presence of that Center in their Inner Mind,
which Center is the Most High. This connectedness is necessary for
the sake of having alternatives opposite to the positive state, which
negative people in the Zone of Displacement represent. This situation
gives the positive Creation an opportunity to know experientially
through the negative state what should not be chosen. Thus, everyone
in Creation and in the Zone of Displacement serves a positive use. The
knowledge of what one should not choose is a positive knowledge in
itself. One has to know this first in order to avoid making wrong
choices.
For this reason whatever happens in the positive state has its
impact not only through the positive state of being and existence but
also through the negative state outside of being and existence in the
Zone of Displacement. No one is excluded from participation; the only
difference is that everything received in the Zone of Displacement is
immediately distorted and/or appears upside down. The establishment
of proper and useful relatedness of all sentient entities would be
impossible if they were connected only to one isolated, self-exclusive,
local level of being and existence as the extremistic stance contends.
This would result in a tremendous deprivation for all sentient entities
and limitation of their freedom of expression, impression and choice.
They could not survive such a situation.
From this, one can see the danger of extremistic views or stances,
and the wisdom of the middle stance which provides balanced
opportunities for the establishment of all possible relationships in the
entire being and existence.
9. Finally, and most importantly, no proper relationship of sentient
entities toward the most vital and crucial aspect of their life — toward
their Absolute Source within — the Most High — could be established
if the extremistic views and stances were correct.
The Most High is equally present, manifested and active
throughout all His/Her Creation and its being and existence. There is
no preferential treatment of any part of Creation because they all
equally originated from the Most High and are parts of the one Whole.
The neglect of one part would be dangerous to the entire whole and
would result in neglect of Self. After all the Most High is present in
one part as much as in the any other part and as much as in the
totality of the Whole. Uneven distribution of the presence of the Most
High throughout the totality of the whole would result in an
imbalance and violation of the principle of equilibrium which
maintains life in the whole. Such a situation would result in the
permanent collapse of the Whole. Creation would cease to exist.
Moreover, through the equal presence of the Most High in every
part of the whole, the Most High's inexhaustible Nature can be
manifested and shared with all parts, since each part reflects a
different aspect of the Most High's Nature. But there is no one aspect
of the Most High's Nature that is inferior or superior to any other.
The Most High is the Most High no matter in what aspect; and the
totality of His/Her Nature is reflected in the uniqueness of that
aspect. If this were not true, sentient entities and humans would be
dangerously limited in their choices for manifestation of the various
aspects of the Most High's Nature and for establishment of a
relatedness to the Most High from the level and degree with which
they are most comfortable at any given moment of their spiritual
development and progression.
Such a limitation to only one or a few aspects of choice would stop
any progression because sentient entities could no longer approximate
more and more the Absolute Nature of the Most High. If they could
not do that, they could not survive. Therefore, it is necessary that all
aspects of the Absolute Nature of the Most High be available to
sentient entities and humans for relatedness in an equal manner and
even distribution throughout all being and existence. Only on such a
base can any meaningful relationship be established.
Any extremistic stance has a dangerous tendency to put emphasis
on one or a few limited aspects and manifestations of the Most High's
Nature, proclaiming them to be the most vital, important and the only
ones feasible. Such a stance is intolerable and in violation of the
freedom of choice to relate to different and as vitally important
aspects of the Most High's Nature as any others.
Only in the middle stance, which is a stance of the Center, can one
find a proper and correct tendency to give an equal opportunity and
even chance to everyone to relate to the Most High from any level, to
any aspect with the same degree and quality of importance and
vitalness as from any other. In such a stance one can find a proper
balance and equilibrium which maintains an even distribution of life
from the Most High throughout all levels of being and existence.
Therefore, one can conclude with a certainty that the true wisdom
in all matters can be found in the middle stance. Such wisdom stems
from the real, equal and unconditional love of the Most High to all in
the Most High's Creation no matter in what dimension, level, degree,
step or Zone they are manifested.
