thought generates emotion=subconscious mind
no thought (stillness, silence) allowing/receptivity receives feelings=conscious mind=witness-awareness
some see emotions as feelings and feelings as emotions, words are words as we know so the words matters not, what matters is the experience, if you observe your thoughts you see that anger, hatred, violence, judgment, condemnation, basically negative experience is the result of thoughts attached to an identity, whereas love, kindness, patience, understanding and compassion ARE when no thought IS, when one is listening and not attached to identity but sees all as itself, hence it knows thyself and in so doing it understands others.
this is the plane (level of consciousness) of non-duality.
One who has transcended to this level of understanding sees not itself above or higher than others, but as them, as itself was once also stuck in these "thought patterns" (low level consciousness) but usually due to some form of suffering or "shocking" experience sought a "way" out of it. Upon being lead out and arriving at liberation the being now in gratitude shares its understanding casting seeds of change so as to help awaken others out of their self induced suffering, thus it is submissive, lowers itself so as to capture the attention of one whose lost and gently guide it back to who its always been.
Balance is the uniting of mind and heart i.e. Father & Mother, Yin/Yang and when divided =suffering, united=non-suffering as they are "not two" or also explained as "neti" "neti" yet one is not without the other but what rests between them.........IS
Female is heading a little more towards the mind, Male is heading a little more towards the heart, one submissive, one active, united=harmony
