“Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair ofopposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; allparadoxes may be reconciled.”–The Kybalion.
This Principle embodies the truth that “everything is dual”; “everythinghas two poles”; “everything has its pair of opposites,” all of which wereold Hermetic axioms. It explains the old paradoxes, that have perplexed somany, which have been stated as follows: “Thesis and antithesis are identicalin nature, but different in degree”; “opposites are the same, differing onlyin degree”; “the pairs of opposites may be reconciled”; “extremes meet”;”everything is and isn’t, at the same time”; “all truths are but half truths”;”every truth is half-false”; “there are two sides to everything,” etc., etc.,etc. It explains that in everything there are two poles, or opposite aspects,and that “opposites” are really only the two extremes of the same thing,with many varying degrees between them. To illustrate: Heat and Cold, although”opposites,” are really the same thing, the differences consisting merelyof degrees of the same thing. Look at your thermometer and see if you candiscover where “heat” terminates and “cold” beginsl There is no such thingas “absolute heat” or “absolute cold”–the two terms “heat” and “cold” simplyindicate varying degrees of the same thing, and that ’same thing” which manifestsas “heat’ and ‘cold” is merely a form, variety, and rate of Vibration. So”heat” and “cold” are simply the “two poles’ of that which we call “Heat”–andthe phenomena attendant thereupon are manifestations of the Principle of Polarity.
The same Principle manifests in the case of “Light and Darkness,”which are the same thing, the difference consisting of varying degrees between the two poles of the phenomena. Where does “darkness” leave off, and “light”begin? What is the difference between “Large and Small”? Between “Hard andSoft”? Between “Black and White”? Between “Sharp and Dull”? Between “Noiseand Quiet”? Between “High and Low”? Between “Positive and Negative”? ThePrinciple of Polarity explains these paradoxes, and no other Principle cansupersede it. The same Principle operates on the Mental Plane. Let us takea radical and extreme example-that of “Love and Hate,” two mental statesapparently totally different. And yet there are degrees of Hate and degreesof Love, and a middle point in which we use the terms “Like or Dislike,”which shade into each other so gradually that sometimes we are at a lossto know whether we “like” or “dislike” or “neither.” And all are simply degrees of the same thing, as you will see if you will but think a moment. And, morethan this (and considered of more importance by the Hermetists), it is possibleto change the vibrations of Hate to the vibrations of Love, in one’s ownmind, and in the minds of others. Many of you, who read these lines, havehad personal experiences of the involuntary rapid transition from Love toHate, and the reverse, in your own case and that of others. And you willtherefore realize the possibility of this being accomplished by the use ofthe Will, by means of the Hermetic formulas. “Good and Evil” are but thepoles of the same thing, and the Hermetist understands the art of transmutingEvil into Good, by means of an application of the Principle of Polarity.In short, the “Art of Polarization becomes a phase of “Mental Alchemy” knownand practiced by the ancient and modern Hermetic Masters. An understandingof the Principle will enable one to change his own Polarity, as well as thatof others, if he will devote the time and study necessary to master the art. //Dr Joshua David Stone
