Balance is not an end, it is a means.

You want to cross that road. You make sure to stay balanced to avoid falling over in the middle of the street and getting run over by a car.

Other than that, balance is pointless. You get no medals for poise.

The optimist expects it to change;
The realist adjusts the sails.

I’m thinking your being sarcastic ?
Balance in life helps big time. It helped me get rid of that “run over like feeling.” Or that lost or even helpless way not having controll over some things brings me. Balance exist often when no one sees... you can fake it or even mask it present but in the long run when your alone and off-the-line *there- that virtue or lack of it will be ever present.

Yea sacrifice is rather intrinsic to any spiritual path IMO, as I think it plays into the mechanisms of spirit most deeply. I don't think its a Jedi v Sith thing, but rather a spiritualist v materialist thing in regards to the degree of sacrifice, whether it be rewiring of ones consciousness or superficial adjustment of focus pumped up as great progress.

A sith will never allow the river to take them. They would never give up that power. Instead they manipulate the river, change its course, corrupt its flow and reshape it to a design they require without regard to what others feel it should be. They imbue it with their essence and as a result transform it to fulfill their desires. There is nothing passive in this where intent is just accepted. It is a wholly active process where intent is forced outward in accordance with the siths will. Jedi allow themselves to be shaped by their environment, while on the other hand sith shape their environment to their design.


Haha.

Only dead fish go with the flow.

The Sith path is a path of life.

I think the really key here is to realize you are the river not the fish. Even the most raging river have to abide by several laws even when they carve the deepest canyon .

You still make my point. Even though a river appears to be flowing around stuff it is, in actuality, one of the most destructive and creative forces on the planet. Constantly carving and shaping its environment, bending it to its will, channeling the deepest canyons or creating the most magnificent deltas. Nothing withstands its force and the only laws it obeys is the laws of physics. Beyond that all is fair game for its power. It seems you are saying the Jedi are but an illusion because they fail to look deep enough at life to see what is really going on. ;)

Maybe, it's that it is all an illusion :) , and it is all a balance, while the river flows it is confined in its shape even while it changes it the environment and well shape, I was not meant to argue your point only present a different perspective..........
