I like to reference balance as the dance between order and chaos. The will
of the universe is expansion. Ilya Prigogine's 'Theory of Dissipative Structures', in my opinion,
expresses how both order and chaos work together to manifest increasing balance of potential and
potential of balance.
Balance is a point within every structure that is temporary due to the fact that
creative movement is fluid and potential is limitless. All points of balance in the creation
are temporary, with one exception, one frequency of Consciousness.
Therefore we, our bodies,
minds, emotions, and lives, our world, this universe, all express incremental points of balance which
build upon to achieve greater potential. We are forever willed towards the embracing of greater
potential. The Yin Yang symbol beautifully illustrates the principle of chaos within order,
and order within chaos.
Every phase of an energetic structure's potential has a point of
balance. It is an amazing energetic and alchemical process that sustains the rhythm of this
process.
There afterwards comes into play an inherent chaotic node within every structure that
breaks that structure apart and moves the elements into a more expansive structure. Then here comes
that point again wherein that structure has achieved perfect balance within that phase of itself and
potential for the perfect amount of time.
Balance is suspended tension of a principle,
thought construct or form. When working with the physical body, one can learn how to balance
degrees of tension and degrees of relaxation as well.
Eventually the chaotic node again
activates to break apart that structure and lure the elements of that structure into a larger
potentiality of itself to once again rest there as an expression of that phase.
This is a
powerful aspect within the organic structure of all phases of our world and lives, from microcosm to
macrocosm. Organic structures are bound by this universal law.
A thing's greater balance may at some point mean a synergy with another structure which
enhances the potentiality of both. After which, they may both be changed forever from their
original design or principle to embrace an even greater potential. This principle is at work in our
lives, communities, and world.
Balance in consciousness, which is the one exception I
mentioned earlier, is a potential reached in which one is poised within knowing of a self beyond
all movement, phases, and change of form. It is an awareness so pristine, there is nothing more to
balance. Balance must be achieved between more than one element. When there is only ONE the
concept of balance is transformed.
