LAW OF THREE (14) The Significance of the Negative Force

LAW OF THREE (14)   The Significance of the Negative

REFLECTIONS ON THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE NEGATIVE FORCE:

"We often represent God to ourselves as being able to draw from non-being a world without sorrows, faults, dangers - a world in which there is no damage, no breakage.

This a conceptual fantasy and it makes it impossible to solve the problem of evil."

Teilhard de Chardin

" For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles" Cor.1 Ch1-22-23

Another stumbling blog for both Christians, Greeks and Jews is the commandment:  " Love your enemies, bless those that curse you..." Matthew 5.44

The transformation of the negative is a major sign of intelligence:

"Ordinary criteria of positive and negative do not apply.. The stress and noise of city life becomes transformed into an energy of meditation. Pain becomes a way of understanding the body. Moral suffering becomes a way of freedom from the personality. Mistakes become a way to truth. Lies become a way to sensitive perception. Death becomes a way to life. Anger becomes a way to compassion. The inversion of the negative is a major sign of intelligence" Anthony Blake
