de_paradise Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) I suddenly came to this theory that there are people who are some kind of self-sacrificing yin, dark, depressed train wreck people, perhaps (unbeknownst to all) so that others can become more bright. In society we view the energy going from the positive trying to fix the negative, but what if on a more subtle level, the roles are reversed, meaning the yin trainwreck negative person is drawing the other out of an entropy of just a mundane, regular amount of light. And this takes place according to some universal plan. So perhaps a karmic debt, if that exists, is owed to the person who I describe as the yin black trainwreck, who was the sacrifice.  Not a sure a if I make a the sense.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz5H3iVjAlw    To: any mod or Sean.

Jetsun Posted October 26, 2012 Not sure if this is what you mean but I once read that historicaly in some traditions and communities the scapegoat was a considered a special spiritual role for maintaining the psychological balance of a community, by holding onto the shadow emotions of the community the scapegoat is the only one with the power to hold this energy until the time people are mature enough to deal with it. For example most communities would have a shaman who would be outcast and feared yet utterly necessary for balance. In Celtic society they had 'sin eaters' who did the same thing. So it could be in modern society there are people still playing this role, you get all the so called spiritual people banging on about being positive while the reality is that the darker negative people are absorbing everyone else's shadow which is being projected onto them, so who is doing the real spiritual service here?

de_paradise Posted October 26, 2012 Thats exactly what i mean, except you expanded it more for me. Thanks. I was thinking about my own personal journey, of the people who gave me the most propulsion or fuel somehow to further myself along and it wasnt the positive types, really more like the modern sin eater shadow absorber type. A really weird twist is the people who I know and have in mind have first names that are mythically representative of that role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zanshin Posted October 26, 2012 I like you theory. Â If you mix all different hues like paint you get black or a very dark color, but if you mix all the different colored wavelengths of light it turns pure white. Not sure if this has anything to do with the thread, but it seems odd how this can happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) Balanced amounts of all wavelengths of light complete the full spectrum to its fullest brightest expression individual colors from pigments are partial expressions of the full light spectrum because some wavelenths are absorbed or reflected or dissipated which leaves only some of the the wavelenths to be scattered back to your eye pigment created colors Mixed in balanced proportions,and combined trend the light scattered back to your eye gray (which is a dim level of white.)  More simply put , pigments preferentially absorb and that which they dont absorb we read as a color.  There are a lot of other considerations and color 'science' is rather complicated , for instance the pigments in a blue eye are the same brown ones in a brown eye and the percieved color is due to diffraction. etc  Stosh Edited October 26, 2012 by Stosh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raimonio Posted October 26, 2012 you know if the trainwreck people would believe in something like this they would come to accept their existence in a better way, the same thing applies in how other people view them.. as it is they hate themselves and other people hate them aswell  if they would be seen as the carriers of bad karma it would be a positive attitude Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zanshin Posted October 26, 2012 Stosh, that was a very interesting and fabulous explanation. I appreciate it although I still do not really understand it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh Posted October 26, 2012 Stosh, that was a very interesting and fabulous explanation. I appreciate it although I still do not really understand it I could try again to do better and would be happy to If you wanted that but really its not an important thing to know unless you paint or do photography etc. (which I do) Stosh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
