At which point is it justified to raise the mirror from the floor and hold it up to the other person? What are your thoughts on this?
OFRADIX 
mirrors only provide a one dimensional image of reality which is only a “reflection” with no energy stored in it!
The real world is way more beyond 3 dimensions and contains infinite energy.
Ego doesn’t want to be connected to the real world and its energies bc ego is individualist and not collective.
Thank you for the nice thought provoking article.
