31 THE BALANCE OF POTENTIALS

It can then be said that immediate reality is governed by the red, horizontal dimension and characterized by variability, while cyclical reality is dominated by the blue, vertical dimension and characterized by stability. These two realities are apparently opposite because one only takes into account the present and individuality, and therefore favors injustice, and the other only takes into account the future and the community, and therefore favors justice. That means that to achieve happiness it is necessary to know how to coordinate them. Assuming that the theory of the exceptions of justice made sense, then the way in which justice and injustice are related would serve to carry out this coordinating task. In this case, justice would be located in the horizontal, blue, majority position and would be related to the dimension of the future, and injustice would be located in the red, vertical, minority position and would be related to the dimension of the present. This change in the position of the colors and their symbolic meanings is due to the fact that one thing is the influence that the present and the future may have on justice and injustice or the dimensional position that they may occupy, and another thing is the dimensional position o the symbolic colors of politics, moral conduct or the percentages that they should have in our conduct, because the red dimension rules over the present, matter and politics, and the blue dimension rules over the spirit, philosophy or morals.

It must be taken into account that depending on the circumstances the planes and their colors may change, because when it comes to analyzing the relationship between the present and the future, or justice and injustice, then the present can be red, horizontal, and favor injustice, and the future can be blue, cold and favor justice. But if what it is about is to determine only the moral conduct to be followed or its relationship with politics, then justice is situated on the horizontal and majority plane, and injustice is situated on the vertical and minority plane. That is to say that the present is governed by the horizontal dimension and the color red and the future is governed by the vertical dimension and the color blue, that means that the present can favor injustice and the future can favor justice. On the other hand, when the moral conduct that we must follow and its relationship with politics is analyzed, then the cross of dimensions turns and justice goes to be in the horizontal, blue and majority position, and injustice goes to be in the vertical position, red and exceptional, then, in the center, you can place the nucleus of political or gravitational power as occurs with the sun in the solar system, or the nucleus of government in a city. The fact that injustice is related to the nucleus of power does not mean that therefore those who hold power are necessarily unjust, what this means is that injustice can accumulate more in the nucleus of power than in civil society.

In this way, if we consider that the best moral behavior is one that defends justice with exceptions, then most of the time we would be acting in accordance with the horizontal, feminine, crystalline and blue dimension and only in exceptional and minority cases would we change plane to act in consonance with the vertical, warm, masculine, spherical and red dimensions, in this way, the potentials of both dimensions would find their balance. The key to knowing when both planes should be changed is difficult to know, I suppose that the way of acting of a person who defends justice with exceptions is to defend justice as a general rule and only in those exceptional cases in which he is completely sure to act unfairly would change your attitude. In any case, when in doubt it is always better to defend total justice. 

Exceptions to justice are symbolized by the color red because they do not contain evil within them, that is to say, they can be in practice an act of injustice but not an act of evil. This means that the possible minority acts of injustice could not be in contradiction with the majority acts of justice. For this to be possible, acts of injustice could only include those behaviors that without being egalitarian would not be against the law, this would exist for example in the salary differences that the different professions have, in this case the salary is different, but the circumstances surrounding these works are also different. Evil, according to this assumption, would be an incorrect conduct, but derived from another correct conduct, because according to the theory of the exceptions of justice, in certain situations injustice would be correct, but not evil because it is a deviation derived from vanity.

This shows that it is not injustice itself that causes the greatest problems for humanity, but when it is united with evil, because injustice alone without evil can produce differences between people, but it does not cause crimes or acts of tyranny. Evil acts as an amplifying element of injustice beyond the place it should occupy, because evil begins when someone gives the masculine or material dimension an excessive value to the detriment of the feminine or spiritual dimension. In other words, evil is generated when someone makes injustice the norm of moral conduct instead of being just a simple exception, this makes them violent and antisocial. It is, therefore, that materialistic attitude that generates evil, because it causes injustice transformed into evil to end up provoking arrogance, vanity or crime.

Therefore, it is necessary to act with energy to correct these antisocial behaviors. Only the naive believe that a criminal who has committed a serious crime should be given a light punishment, because if we consider justice as the only aspect to take into account when passing sentence, then for those who commit crimes and especially for those who do it repeatedly, it would be fair to take their life in exchange for the one they took, it would be one life for another. However, in my opinion, it is better to apply life imprisonment than the death penalty, because once the offender has been arrested, his execution is no longer necessary and with the execution society is also stained with blood, which is not necessary. In addition, while in prison you can work to pay for the damage caused without creating more risk to society. But those who believe that weak penalties must be applied for serious crimes are naive, for the simple reason that the devil is a devil precisely because he has assumed the intention of applying the greatest possible cruelty to his victims, therefore, against that extreme and acute evil It is also necessary for the law to apply extreme and acute forcefulness, but not for doing evil as criminals do, but because evil can only be expelled and peace achieved when the law applies the same forcefulness to criminals as that which they apply with their victims.

The theory of the exceptions of justice defends that unjust behavior is only justifiable in exceptional situations, but only when those situations are within the law and do not include tyranny or vanity. But if we take this into account, then the military expansion of the states could also agree with this theory in some cases, because being legal within each state it would not be in contradiction with the law, because in these cases they are the states themselves those who create these conflicts to extend their borders. In any case, conflicts between nations will end when the whole world is governed by a single state or an association of states which is most likely a system, in which each race will have its own representatives and in a fair proportion. 

Another option would be to defend total justice and without exceptions. Some might think that if we only act taking into account the cyclical nature and therefore we are always fair, then perhaps we put ourselves at a disadvantage compared to those who do not renounce to obtain benefits by accepting exceptions to justice, even if that means not be strictly fair. One of the reasons for thinking this way could be that they did not believe the cyclical character of the universe. They might also think that even though the cyclical nature is true, that would not be a reason to refuse to be unfair at times, because in return they could prevent others from obtaining advantages in the present with respect to them by accepting exceptions to justice. This belief would be based on the hypothesis that even if it is true that in the course of time all beings will experience all events, even so, it would be worthwhile to be unfair in an exceptional way, because supposedly those who were always fair, would be at a disadvantage in the present against those who accept exceptions, this is due to the fact that they would accept to obtain benefits unfairly at times, in situations that a just person would not accept. That is to say, they would consider that the possible damage that the cyclical nature could cause them due to being unfair at times would be less than that caused by the inferiority complex or the economic losses that could always cause them to be fair, if we compare it with those that accept exceptions to justice, taking into account that they could obtain greater benefits than they do at present.

This would be based on the hypothesis, that to obtain the greatest success in the immediate plane of the present, it would be necessary to be unjust on an exceptional basis, but without crossing the line that separates injustice from tyranny, vanity or delinquency. This is possible, because not all acts of injustice provoke a retaliatory reaction for those who cause them, this occurs especially in acts of injustice that are within the law, such as those derived from political privileges or salary differences that exist within companies, but there are also crimes that are not discovered and cases in which they are discovered but whoever causes them does not receive a punishment in proportion to the damage caused. With this comment I do not mean to say that I necessarily support privileges, what I am trying to show is that injustices are not always detected or provoke a reaction against it, because there are even some that are within the law.

Supposedly and according to this theory, defending acts of injustice in an exceptional way and within the aforementioned margins, the principle that seeks to obtain the maximum benefit in the present would not be breached, and consequently, no disadvantage would be caused by this behavior. On the other hand, those who accept to carry out acts of injustice beyond what would be an exceptional situation, would be faced with the fight in self-defense of others, this consequence would make this behavior uninteresting, for that reason they would have to return to a more stable system. In other words, according to this theory, accepting acts of injustice would only produce a benefit in the present, if they are exceptional acts and if they fulfill the condition of not being outside the law or including tyranny or vanity. This means that according to these assumptions, the difference between injustice and evil lies in the fact that those who consider injustice as the norm adopt other behavioral options and on a different and more extreme plane that inevitably triggers the opposite reaction that they do. This behavior would be unviable, such as those related to criminal activity. In the case of those who accept the exceptions of justice as something exceptional and within the rules, self-defense may not act in the same way as in the previous case, because by being carried out within the law, it would not be violating any mandatory social norm compliance and consequently they would not provoke the contrary reaction of the system. These assumptions of legal injustice, for example, would be the differences in salary or work that could exist in a private economy system. When I cite this type of economy, I do not do it as a reproach, because the private economy has existed throughout history and has been a true engine for the economic development of the world, because competition between companies rewards those that work best and penalizes those that do not have a good relationship between quality and price. However, it must also be said that the more that is done to eradicate poverty in the world, the better the relationships between company directors and their workers will be.

In any case, for the theory of the exceptions of justice to be viable and assuming that it was not wrong, it would be necessary to be clear that the equilibrium of the system is only acquired when justice is considered as the axis of moral conduct, because Entering the red dimension of injustice beyond what would be an exceptional and minority situation would cause an imbalance that would generate evil, this, in turn, would cause a confrontation with the rest of society that would end up ruining the life of those who it does. That is, only when the blue dimension that represents justice and coexistence is the one that dominates our moral conduct, the necessary balance is acquired to be able to live in peace and harmony with our fellow human beings. On the moral plane, it is justice that should govern our behavior, regardless of whether the exceptions to justice may have the same potential value in absolute terms, this is so, because the blue and spiritual dimension should be the one that governs our moral conduct, but the red dimension must be the one that governs from the political or material point of view. This does not mean that that is why governments are necessarily going to be unfair, because the color red is benign in general like all colors, which means that the risk of injustice accumulating in the government is greater due to the concentration of power.

In any case, it must be borne in mind that the civil or governed population actually has the same power as the central government, because, although the power that each individual in the government has is greater in proportion than that of the governed people, However, in absolute terms the power is equal, because the governed are many more than those who govern, this forces the government system to necessarily take into account its subjects. In addition, although the central power is large with respect to the governed party, however, that does not prevent them from being more vulnerable with respect to those who share power with them. The truth is, that acting with tyranny does not make sense even for those who have absolute power, because these types of behaviors are more the consequence of a mental or emotional imbalance than a consequence of power, it is true that power can facilitate the manifestation of tyranny or arrogance, but only in the case of those who already were before, but the fact of having power does not have to make someone who is decent or vain.

Injustice belongs to the horizontal and warm dimension and justice to the vertical and cold dimension and the fact that each one has only a minority or exceptional part of participation in the other dimension does not mean that for this reason it does not have the same potential value in terms absolute, because the mechanism of the exceptions determines that what is done exceptionally, however, can have a symbolic value equal to the opposite majority, what happens is that each pole obtains in one dimension what it loses in the other. The main moral conduct must be based on justice, because morality and justice belong to the same dimension. In turn, within the exceptions to justice there would also be two sub dimensions, one would be the stable blue and horizontal injustice, which is the one that would be socially accepted as being within the law, and another would be the unstable, red and vertical injustice that it would be rejected because it is the consequence of a moral imbalance that generates evil. In this case, the evil would be an exceptional behavior within another exceptional behavior because it would be an exceptional behavior within the injustice, but in this case it would be a wrong and rejectable exception because it is the consequence of the error. We must not forget that not all exceptional behaviors are correct, many are the consequence of errors or mental imbalances, therefore, we must only do in an exceptional way what makes sense. Evil ultimately arises when someone acts as if others did not exist and he was the only being in the universe, that is, he acts as if others were objects that he can handle at will, but that, obviously, is an unbalanced behavior that It appears when someone allows vanity and arrogance to dominate their soul.

Those who believe in the theory of the exceptions of justice, could also use as an argument in their favor the fact that the great nations of the past did act in accordance with these exceptions, because if Greece or Rome had not been forceful in their campaigns of political or military expansion, it is evident that they would soon have been subdued by other nations that did not have these ideological considerations, therefore, those who affirm that a country can live without an army show great ignorance.

In any case, in my opinion, the best thing is to defend total justice, because to defend our rights there is already legitimate defense, which allows us to defend ourselves without being in contradiction with total justice. Furthermore, those who accept exceptions to justice also risk suffering the consequences of self-defense carried out by those they may harm if they miscalculate their actions. Because it must be taken into account that the exceptions of justice act within the warm dimension characterized by instability and the risk of being wrong. Therefore, even if it is correct, it must only be something exceptional, because abusing the warm dimension can cause a loss of control that would end up causing suffering for those who do it. Having justice as the axis of our life provides us with the peace of conscience necessary to live without having to think about the consequences of our own actions. We must also be clear that happiness must arise above all from the fruits of science and not from conflict with our fellow men. The key to balance, therefore, is to defend justice as the main moral norm, among other things because it is the most stable attitude we can have, justice provides us with stability and security and protects us from the claim of those whom we may harm if we are not fair.

This means that in an imaginary pyramid, injustice would be located at the top at the point of greatest instability and therefore, whoever allows himself to be dominated by it runs a high risk of falling and suffering the consequences. In this case, the reason that the injustice is at the top of the pyramid is because it is symbolically part of the same group as the political power. When only political or material power is taken into account, then injustice can take on a greater role than in the spiritual dimension. That does not mean that those who control power are necessarily unjust, but power can facilitate it. To create an organized system it is necessary to elect a representative to act as coordinator of the others, but it has the disadvantage that this power can also facilitate the development of unfair behavior. On the other hand, if what is analyzed is power from a spiritual point of view, then the justice represented by the blue color would be at the top of the pyramid acting as the governor of the whole, and the injustice represented by the red color would be below. . This is so, because in the spiritual dimension the feminine aspect or justice predominates, this determines that the moral attitude must be mainly based on justice, because morality and justice are part of the same dimension.

In the material dimension, politics has more power than morality since it belongs to the spiritual dimension, therefore, it is easier for injustice to accumulate in the nucleus of power than in the governed society. It must also be said that both the power nucleus and the governed society have the same power in absolute terms, but the difference is that the political power that is also male governs directly, while the civil society that is also female governs indirectly. . When power is analyzed symbolically, in the cross of dimensions, political power occupies the vertical and exceptional line, and justice occupies the horizontal and majority line. So the vertical line in the center represents political power and the horizontal line represents moral power and justice. This means that political power is a minority but strong in the nucleus of power and justice is a majority in the horizontal dimension because it represents most of that line. When it comes to spiritual power, then philosophy and religion occupy the vertical line, and politics or matter occupy the horizontal line. This determines that moral conduct must be consistent with justice and universal values.

For this reason, what should never be done is to use injustice as a norm of conduct, because then we enter a situation of great instability that would inevitably lead us to collide with the rest of the citizens. In this situation, the red dimension ends up turning black as a result of the suffering it causes us. The color black in this case represents evil, therefore, it is best not to wear only black clothes, because using that color exclusively is also a way to vindicate evil. Many are those who, knowing this, dress in black as a form of self-defense to pretend an evil that they do not really have. The fact of wearing black is not bad because evil spirits are attracted, but because by acting like this we ourselves can become evil beings.

In reality, there are no superior beings that are evil at the same time because that is a contradiction, it is not possible to be superior and evil at the same time. Evil cannot exist in heaven only on earth because this is a primitive and ignorant world, because progress brings light and drives humanity away from darkness. Since evil is a derivative of error and ignorance, in the evolved worlds it ends up disappearing in the end. For this reason, only those people who are not capable of understanding that justice should be the main axis of our conduct fall into evil. Devils are only mythological or symbolic characters that have been used by different religions to encourage people to join them and abandon polytheism. That does not mean that evil does not exist, but there are no superior beings that are at the same time, however, evil exists and is very real but only in primitive beings who choose to choose evil as their main behavior. When these materialistic beings die they refuse to leave the human world, sometimes it is because they do not believe in the afterlife, and sometimes because they are afraid of possible punishment if they ascend to the spiritual world. They do not understand that hell does not exist, because in reality hell is the suffering that occurs when injustice is assumed as a moral norm. When someone tries to expel these evil spirits from the places where they are located, they try to avoid it by pretending to be demons, but it is only a deception, because their apparent powers such as speaking in other languages or moving objects are qualities that all spirits have after death. That means that a being can become a demon when he behaves evilly, but he can also stop being one when he abandons that attitude. This, in primitive worlds, happens frequently and is not very different from any other form of mistake. Fortunately, only a minority of people become dominated by evil at the same time, because evil is a serious error and therefore, it is not logical that all citizens can be dominated by the same error. This hypothesis would be impossible, because when many people need to live with each other, then it is necessary that the members of that group respect each other so that coexistence is possible, therefore, cases of tyranny or despotism can only be exceptional.

The universe is full of situations in which there needs to be a constant balance of universal potentials over time. Examples of this are the sexes or the magnetic poles, these constant values, masculine red and feminine blue, are those that are found in the horizontal part of a symbolic letter X, being on the vertical side those values that are variable and like an hourglass turned upside down, they go from the lower side to the upper side. The black color below represents ignorance and the past, and the white color above represents the light and knowledge that causes progress. This X also forms a cross that represents the division of the horizontal and vertical planes. The symbolism that associates the letter (X) with sex and universal polarities may already have been known to philosophers in ancient times, perhaps that is why this letter is used to name the word sex in some languages.

In the evolved worlds that have completed their complete technological development, evil will disappear as it is the consequence of error and ignorance, therefore, those who think that evil must always exist are mistaken. Today, Christianity has become one of the best religions on earth because, in addition to defending monotheism, it makes clear the superiority of good over evil, unlike those who, because they do not understand this, end up becoming worshipers of evil. It is important to be clear about this, because those people who frivolize with this issue by giving importance to evil end up suffering the consequences, because moral progress has only one way and that is to defend the good and reject evil. Progress has to go from ignorance to light and from evil to good for those who have fallen into evil, because if good and evil had to always exist and under the same conditions, then progress would stop when it remained nullified the flow that goes from ignorance and evil to knowledge and good. Evil is placed below and good above in a symbolic X, precisely to underline that progress consists of a flow by which all beings advance from darkness and ignorance located below to light and knowledge located above, therefore Therefore, progress is based on moving away from ignorance and evil. Ignorance can lead to error and error can lead to evil, but progress is only possible when evil is rejected and progress is made towards good.

It is true that once the current cosmic cycle ends, the universe will return to the beginning and with it ignorance will return, but the objective of this is not to favor the re-emergence of evil, but to make possible the regeneration of the universe. With this regeneration, the universe has to forget and return to ignorance and as an accidental consequence evil can arise, but evil is only an error of moral behavior that in turn causes an imbalance in the potentials that should govern the soul. Because the soul must give the same value to the matter represented in red as to the spirit represented in blue, but when an excessive value is given to the red, material or masculine dimension over the blue, spiritual or feminine, then materialism arises and suffering, because happiness is only possible when matter is given the same value as spirit.

The red dimension in the moral aspect represents risk or injustice, therefore, whoever abuses it by breaking the balance of potentials becomes a despot and materialist, which ends up causing the rejection of other citizens and consequently suffering for those who thus behaves. The same occurs with those men who, as children, acquire prejudices towards the female sex because they see the sexes as if they were opposing sides, later, when they reach adulthood, they end up becoming homosexual. This is similar to what happened in ancient Sparta where the militaristic government incited children to be homosexual, thinking that in this way they would not miss women during their long military expeditions. This government was very materialistic because it gave an excessive value to the masculine over the feminine, that's why it ended up disappearing. This also happens to women when they hear feminists continually saying that all men are bad just because they are men, then many of them become prejudiced against men and choose to become lesbians. This is an unbalanced behavior because they do not accept to give each sex the value that it deserves. They do not understand that the fact of being a man or a woman does not have to prevent them from being able to relate to the opposite sex in a normal way, it is an example of stubbornness taken to the extreme.

This example would not be applicable to all homosexuals but only to a minority percentage, because, in my opinion, most cases of homosexuality derive in part from not having fully completed their sexual development due to a biological defect Although it must also be said that no physical defect can force anyone to behave in an unnatural way, that is to say that homosexuality actually occurs when a moral degeneration is added to a physical defect. Materialism is also present in those people who, by giving a disproportionate value to material things over spiritual things, never feel happy. It is necessary to understand that the key to happiness is to find the balance between the masculine and the feminine or between matter and spirit, these two values are like the plates of a scale and only when we give both the same importance and are in balance it is possible to be happy. In the political aspect these two dimensions also have their equivalent, because the central or centripetal power represents the masculine dimension and the power of the society or centrifugal represents the feminine dimension, that means that a government that is too centralist can lead to a dictatorship and a government. Too libertine can lead to anarchy and crime, therefore, it is necessary that both forces find their balance for society to function properly.

The reason for associating the male sex with the command is due to its centripetal nature, which determines that many individuals distributed around a circumference are attracted towards the central point that happens to act as a representative of the others, as occurs with the sun with respect to the planets. On the other hand, the female sex is centrifugal in nature, that means that it tends by its very nature to favor the dispersion in space of the members of a group and consequently to destroy the coordination between them. Therefore, the male sex is better able to exercise command over a group than the female sex. This does not mean that that is why a woman cannot have the capacity to command, because this circumstance does not necessarily refer to people but above all to the percentages of polarity that exist within each person, because within all men and women as well There are both male and female polarity, this is present even in every atom of our body. The difference is that in a woman the feminine pole prevails and in a man the masculine one prevails in one aspect of their being, but they all have both dimensional aspects within them. This means, for example, that when a woman makes a decision or exercises control it is because she uses the masculine part that she has, and when a man acts spiritually it is because he uses his feminine part. For this reason, we must not confuse absolute concepts with relative ones because within all people there are many dimensional planes with many different polarities without this being in contradiction with the fact that one polarity prevails over the other. When this happens, it is because the universal polarities have specialized in that aspect of life to improve its effectiveness.
