It is necessary to balance work & life. Lets break down what must consist of “Work” and what must consist of “Life”
There is a beauftiful analogy of seeing the world from the view point of gender, a masculine and a feminine. In hermetic doctrine, proposed 5000 years ago, Kybalions believe that there is a mystic divine force involved to bring life into existence. By life here, I mean the Universe and everyting that you perceive as living, transforming, transcending on the scale of time. By the way of illustration, the sprouting of a seed can be seen as transforming and shifting shapes of the rocks and landscapes can also be referred as transformation.
The mystic divine force that brings thing in life and responsible for life growth and death of the all is a united effort of masculine and feminine. When these two forces come together, only then the tranformation takes place be it physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. The theory says that there is gender to everything, the masculine and the feminine. The masculine gender is responsible to provide form, structure, support, resilience, faith, confidence, while the feminine gender’s role is to breath life into it. The feminine life force energy is described as flowing, allowing, nurturing, receptive, vulenrable, loving, emotional and empathetic.
Hence, in order to come into a creator mode, we need to balance masculine and feminine within us. You might say, I am a man, I will only have masculine energy within myself, does that make me incomplete? Or you could be a female wondering how I can cultivate the masculine energies. Well for females possessing masculine energies in maximal balanced form and winning the world already, for instance Indra Nooyi, Sheila Lirio Marcelo, Leena Nair, Priyanka Chopra, and more such. The male role models are limited to point a finger on across the globe and I wonder if that is because patriarchy is a real thing and it has never welcomed men to think, feel, act or be in their feminine essense publically, personally or intimately either. Let us explore together on whether the above narrative is true for human existence or another scam to sabotage human existence.
