Path #14 (Chokma-Wisdom to Binah-Understanding)

Here there is an obvious crossover from the left side to the right side that forms the bottom of the upper triangle. It's the path that unites wisdom and understanding.

It's the crossover, lintel or header between two pillars of consciousness.

The upper left sphere has two spheres directly below it and so does the upper right sphere.

If you connect the dots on each side you come up with two lines that run along the left and right sides.

These lines are called pillars to give reference to the functions of each side of the aura.  The aura is seen more like an egg (expandable) around the body. 

If you put a body in the egg (expandable) you then have a front and back, top and bottom. The body is not what I call expandable. 

That's to say that the body cannot expand suddenly to the size of a school bus, office building or planet.

Within this egg shape you have a line through the center from top to bottom and then a line on each side.  Showing an egg with three lines through it.

This is a representation of what you live in, an expandable egg with three lines.

Your left arm is part of the left pillar (mercy) and your right arm is part of your right pillar (severity).

All of your decisions come from the centerline and everything you do, with those decisions, is carried out by the other two lines, either combined or separately.

As mentioned, the given names, mercy and severity with mercy on the left side.

It's like being really nice about something (left) or being really pissed of about it (right).

You're either being severe or merciful. Pat your dog, pet your kitten, shoot a deer or scold a child your focus on what you are doing is tending to both of these sides simultaneously.

How clear you are on this is what separates you from the barbarian attitude(s) of pillaging, conquest, rape, and destruction.

Well when you look at the left and right top two spheres you have an actual reversal of concepts occurring (one is male and one is female) the female by all logical reasoning should

appear on the left side, but it doesn't.

I see this as a built in balancing mechanism, due to the fact that you need to have a combination of opposites for balance. 

Much again, like the Yin Yang symbol.

So this illuminating path between wisdom and understanding has a center and two ends relatively.

But if you see it as a coin on its side in that area of the egg, dividing that upper layer of the egg, then you have a better image.

A disk rather than a straight line, that divides the area of an aura which involves the final decision making process of the being. 

Why, what and how to do it.

Why you need to know this here and now has, once again, everything to do with your conceptual understanding of these forms.

That's all, just to get the picture of things from a meta-physical standpoint. The side that's figuring it out and the side that's planning to use it for a reason.

It is more than the collectivity of knowledge and its certainty but also the concern of the reason for use. 

Used to develop and protect the nature of the situation at hand. It is the primordial (1st basic) female nature, in a nutshell.

We are affected by it everyday in every life no matter who or what you are.

As far as the working of the paths goes, the way I see it, is if you already know what it (path working) is and have studied it or used it, ever in your entire lifetime, then I don't have

to tell you what you should see on this path.
