LAW OF THREE 16 The Need to Embrace Friction

LAW OF THREE(16)  The Need to Embrace Friction

"The whole body of the world's religions are expressions of the Trinity and thus a unity between Christ and creation. The silence of the Father is expressed in Buddhism; the Logos is found in Judaism, Islam, and Christianity; and the various movements of the Spirit are present in multiple forms in Hinduism. Without the Trinity there is no Christ, and without Christ there is no Trinity."

Raimon Panikkar

NON DUALITY

Non duality does not mean to get rid of duality (the negative) but to embrace duality (the negative) in order to wake up to the non dual nature of reality.

We must to embrace friction for the third force to manifest. Without friction we nurture the comfortable illusion of my peace and my rightness.

There is more glory for the looser than for the winner if the looser does not give up. The winner provides the friction for the looser to continue accepting pain while the winner will eventually have to loose.

Friction keeps the world going.  Friction may take place automatically or intentionally. Conscious work and intentional suffering (friction) is what is proposed in the Fourth Way schools in developing consciousness.

A POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE

"The rationalist part of the Enlightenment thought that to liberate man from the yoke of religion it was necessary to remove the experience of hazard, uncertainty and risk. Socialism has been the most radical in this attempt, but different forms of statism move in the same direction. Nevertheless, man is a being structurally confronted with hazard and risk and when the State tries to take upon its shoulder all the weight of insecurity, under such weight it wobbles and brakes.."

Rocco Buttiglione.
