Desire and Aversion

desire and aversion 
      exist together 
as part of the universal all-that-is

opposites purposely attract 

the constant push and pull
      of attraction and repulsion 
demands we look higher within 
       to find the middle ground 
           of neutrality and observation 
               at the zero 
                   point 
               
this is where truth inevitably lies 
       and soul growth occurs
