The seasonal equinoxes are a time when the planet amplifies the opportunity for individuals, communities, and countries to come into better balance. To achieve greater balance avoid Projecting Mind and Developing Mind, and focus instead on Observing Mind. When balanced, we take things less personally, we have more energy and we are more interested in others. Staying in balance today is more difficult than in previous times because people now are less connected with nature. Achieving greater balance reduces suffering, deepens compassion, improves one's effectiveness in life, and leads to spiritual community.
