But the active part of conscioussness is about nourishing itself, inseminating itself, not about sacrifising..
It is the ego who experience it as sacrifising because it feels separated..
Could you really say that conscioussness is female, when one thing cannot exist without another? Consciousness is both active (energy) and receptive (nothing).. As One..
The active part eternally inseminating itself..
Consciousness could not know itself as conscioussness if there wasnt an active part experiencing - That..
I also understand where you are coming from and I highly respect it..
But many people are associating the words Male, Female, God and Goddess with so many other things.. So I realized as I write this that maybe the words I would rather like to use is receptive and active..
There is only One.. No separation.. whatsoever..
