If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Optimal Power: Balanced Understanding Of Twin Powers
Unity Consciousness #606

.

Optimal functioning, thus optimal living, requires balance. This balance is the fundamental balance within the twin power relationship.

As discussed elsewhere, imbalance is caused by the lack of understanding.
As mutual understanding of each other is lost, the twin power relationship is impaired and begins to function without adequately counterbalancing each other. This creates challenges.
Challenges are resolved by gaining, repairing and restoring understanding.
Since balance is a pairing process, re-balancing is a re-pairing process.
The twin power relationship is repaired with understanding.

A balanced person has balanced understanding of the twin power relationship operating within and without and takes steps to support this relationship with continuous understanding of every twin pairing form of the twin power relationship.

In the dimension above, Ogo/Yurugu became impatient for the understanding necessary to use his power. He began to discriminate and manipulate without his female twin. Likewise, in the dimension below, some Africans in Africa became impatient for their turn in birthright to be the headpiece for the power behind the family and communal throne. The males deposed each other and their female twin (mothers and sisters included). The female authority, conscience and wisdom became a secondary consideration or not at all rather than sought after as a primary balance in family and communal affairs. In addition to losing their female understanding, Africans began to lose Ancestral understanding. This added another layer of problems to an already growing list. Among this list was empire building and the loss of spirituality in exchange for superficiality of religion which helped facilitate immature and disuniting thinking such as all types of racism, including racism based on skin color.

Twin power relationship imbalance within and without each person has caused all the problems we are experiencing today, yet the problems are actually symptoms of the main challenge - the lack of understanding.

Now for a brief, but more detailed, example as it relates to the female twin and understanding of the female.
The removal of the female from her rightful place in the affairs of human beings, is equivalent to losing the spirit portion of the spirit/matter relationship. Matter cannot exist without spirit. Spirit formed matter. Matter did not form spirit. All matter contains spirit because all matter is a form of spirit.
The loss of the female voice has resulted in males focusing more on the physical without the counterbalancing effects of the spiritual. Thus we can review problem after problem and find this to be true, especially the mentality of “let's go and take what we want so we don't have to wait and create it ourselves”(knowledge, resources, wealth, history).
Another way to summarize the effects of losing the twin power female/male twin pairing understanding and balance is this: Humans do not enjoy the full use of their rights because humans do not make full use of their lefts.
Females are representative of the left side.
Females are not in their rightful place on the left to balance out the spiritual twin power relationship. Females and males use their power but not in balancing conjunction. The sexes battle rather than balance. Understanding of self is still the solution.
