Post No. 421 - Can one be too positive?

It probably seems a strange question to people who are trying to grow spiritually: can one be to positive? It would seem to be obvious that the answer should be "no, it is not possible to be too positive" - but what is that scares off people you are trying to help (this doesn't relate to me, by the way!)? I think I've posted once about someone who set up protection around themselves in a shop, and an unhappy looking woman moved away from the person and glared at them - obviously wanting to hang on to her pain rather than let it go.

I was thinking about this while I enjoyed a nice, cleansing, full of positive energy shower this morning, and how people who have been taken to higher energy realms - MUCH higher energy - have sometimes found it difficult. Obviously they have blocks to energy flows, as all of us do, but what if one could let go of those blocks and allow the higher energy to flush one's chakras, channels and energy bodies ("auras") out? It would be one way to get a much higher capacity to channel energy ...

Of course, returning to the relatively lower energy realm that is this world would be more painful ...

What would stop someone in that situation doing that - letting go and allowing higher energy to flush one out? Fear of loss of self identity (I kid you not - some people do thing spiritually evolved people have no fun [true - they don't get smashed out of their brains every Friday or Saturday night .. they don't want to, 'cos their brains are a very nice place to be in, than you very much :) ]; others think spiritually evolved people are "all the same" - and such people obviously are so stupid [or lacking in LIFE EXPERIENCE that they consider only flaws and faults to differentiate people, and they cannot see that "good" characteristics do include variety and uniqueness)? Thinking that one must go through a certain ritual or series of events, or be paid a certain price (e.g. acknowledgement) before one can let go?

It was an interesting speculation, good food for thought perhaps.

I've come across some reading links that are also possibly good food for thought:

First, from the blog site of "the Odinic Rite in Australia":

• a post about Aussie Odinists being put in concentration camps - in Australia, as were other Australians who were considered potential problems - here; and
• some thoughts on how violently Christianity spread throughout Europe, which is something I have read of elsewhere.

The next set of links come out of some research I was doing at work, when I came across the site of an organisation called "Consultancy Africa Intelligence", which is largely about business information (who is planning on spending money on projects, for instance), but also had some interesting blog posts:

• I liked this post because it comments that not all women fit into the stereotype of gentle and nice, and even mentions female warriors (see also here and here): The Debate Over Female Peacekeepers; 
• this topic is one I have been watching for some time in the capacity of my day job, and is one area where it overlaps with my "other" work: Water wars: From treaties to privatisation, a danger looming over Africa?; 
• this post is about the views and experiences underlying attitudes that are one of the reasons I have declined to work in some nations in Africa (the other is exemplified here): When the occult meets the criminal: The connection between human trafficking and witchcraft (just after posting this, I came across an article about this sort of experience being described here);
• and finally ... Violence and gang youth in South Africa: More complex than 'black menace'.

Armageddon is alive and well and happening right now: it is a battle between the indolence of "I only ..." and/or "I just ..." on one side, and perspicacity on the other.
Like fire to the physical, emotions to the soul make a good servant, and a bad master. Spiritual love is far more than just an emotion - it is a concept, thoughts, actions and a way of living.
