The Union of Two Opposites

Do you remember the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde? The respected member of upper London society never faced up to his dark side, so the neglected part of him ventured out at night and committed horrendous crimes and finally won the upper hand over Dr. Jekyll altogether. This story is a classic in describing the two opposing natures that can live in a person and the more proper a spiritual path traveler aspires to become, the louder the voice of the demon becomes until one finally fesses up to the other voice inside.

The union of two opposites is possible. Every marriage is a union of yin and yang, so I hope you would agree with me that with a lot of hard work and a little good karma you can bring out the best of both forces. So figure out what forces are burning deep down inside, accept and embrace them and then find out how you can unify your drives and aspirations. This is your mission statement, as a matter of fact, you assigned yourself this little puzzle long before you were born so surely a solution to your challenge exists. Be creative, be flexible and be determined that your idiosyncratic solution will be found. Have a look at the in and yang symbol below. The union of yin and yang exists - both forces live happily ever after.
