The Value Triangle - (1706)

Every value exists at the top of a triangle.

At the base of the triangle are the two opposites.  

If we concentrate on the value we can control or transcend the two opposites.

For example, let's take the scenario of body weight. If we look at, we see the pleasure of eating nice food, our favourite sweet and savoury plates and treats, then we have the displeasure of looking at our fat belly in the mirror while getting dressed. 

There we have the two opposites of pleasure and displeasure. However what is the value? It is health of the physical body. The value of health to give the Inner Being more good quality time here in the physical work to do It's work.

So, if we focus on health we will fix up our relationship with those two opposites. We will lose weight and not over indulge in our favourite food and eat in a more balanced and healthy way, because we are actively exercising the value of good health..

This applies to every situation, there will always be two opposites and a value. If we find the two opposites we can find the value. With the value we can transcend the problem that the opposites always bring us.
