examine the self. The polarity of your dimension must be internalized.

which you disapprove within yourself, and then balancing each and every

the mind to examine how the feelings, the biases, what you would call the/ q/ g6 g! V& J

The body is a creature of the mind’s creation. It has its biases. The

bias allowed to find full expression in understanding. Again, the process of
