I think the primary balance is the balance of all forces in creation, not the balancing of action and fixity. There is no fixity. Everything is always changing, often in balance and sometimes not. When in balance, there may be apparent fixity, but everything is still dynamic, constantly changing. I usually experience balance in my life. The balance is not of stasis and dynamis; the balance is dynamic, not fixed, andis the constant adjusting and readjusting of all the constantly changing parts, with the great majority of the balancing happening outside of my awareness. For example, I usually experience balance in walking, which balance is dynamic as my whole self is constantly adjusting and readjusting mostly unconsciously a zillion changing parts. Only occasionally am I out of balance. I believe balance and the process of balancing is natural and is constantly happening. What helps me make space for balance is staying out of the way of nature and willingnessto adjust when I experience imbalance.
