The Alchemy of Opposites
by Rodolfo Scarfalloto
Category: Alchemy

In any given form of opposites or duality, the one that is judged inferior or lesser is the one that rules. When both sets of opposites are recognised and given equal value, the neurosis dies, not as a soldier dies in battle, but as a seed dies when it breaks its skin and opens up to a new form of life. This text argues that by seeing beauty in the world of duality, one awakens to singularity.
