14. Essential Peace
Discuss (8)There are three ways to bring unity between two opposites:
The first is by introducing a power that transcends both of them and to which they both utterly surrender their entire being.
They are then at peace with each other because they are both under the influence of the same force.
But their being is not at peace—their being is simply ignored.
The second way is by finding a middle ground where the two beings meet. The two are at peace where they meet on that middle ground—but the rest of their territory remains apart and distant.
The third way is to reveal that the essence of every aspect of the two beings is one and the same.

This spark reveals the faulty connections between us.
We raise the prayer to request G_d to refine our attributes in order to enable each to perform his role for the sake of the one system - our soul, that he has prepared for us.
Step by step He transcends us, with our request, to a higher level of being.

On a psychological level we need to introduce a factor to totally satisfy the opposites.
How can we be a receiver and giver simultaneously? It all depends on our 'intention' - I receive pleasure from another 'with the intention' to give the other pleasure from my receiving from him.
