Growing is not a duality.
I never grow down, always up.
Growth is absolute.
All growth is towards the Light.
In absolute reality, everything is continuously growing towards infinity, for eternity.
My growth is both expansive & contractual! But never contractive.
I have a contract with my Soul to expand & grow.
The spiritual growth of my Soul is ever expansive.
My Soul has a contract with my Self to fulfil an expansive life.
My experience of life is always growing. Whether I believe that I have fulfilled the contract or not is just a matter of my perspective.
As I grow up, my Soul expands through the experience of my Self, with or without my conscious awareness of my inner contract.
