    It appears you have a negative association with the word sacrifice? It
does not need to be. It is just part of the wheel of life eats life, energy
in transformation.

    We sacrifice all the time. A tree makes a cherry, sacrificing the sugar
and energy so it seed will be carried by birds. We sacrifice a tree to
build a house, we cut the wheat to make our bread. I sacrifice my time and
energy to write a post. The mother in labour... offering a sacrifice of her
body, her life energy and resources to birth a child. Hopefully, with no
regrets! One generation dies to make room for another. Sacrifice is
another word for barter, or trade. No creation without destruction. The
root of the word "sacrifice" is "sacred". It is beauty.

>exist without another?

LOL!! Can you say consciousness is male, for the same reason?

    You assume consciousness does not exist without activity.. I disagree.
The nothing is conscious whether it births a something or not. Being and
doing. There can be being without doing, can there be doing without being?

    Yep... but does consciousness need activity to Be?

Ditto.

Receptivity is not an activity?

>There is only One.. No separation.. whatsoever..

Yes... so then why say one is fem and one is male? You made the
separation, I simply commented on it.
