Exactly...and the more we see the extremes, the more we can focus on the Middle.
The scales of patience determine the weight of the personality...The wand of Hermes...The Middle is the Mirror of the Mind...the cleaner it is, the better one sees the All Mind. The Mind is the Mirror of the Soul, Which on Its turn is a Mirror of Atman.

Possibly we can see it as a balance(scales) if scales hanging in the
zeropoint or in balance that can be truth and if one scale is out of
balance we produce Karma.
So the only work to do is to keep all in balance and in the middle of
ourselves.(sumadha) .

Cosmic Kama...all misunderstanding causes 'bad karma with lessons to
follow' ; all knowing causes expanding consciousness or
horizons...except the horizons are as well vertical as
horizontal.. .and all in between...we have to understand the 3
worlds, tamas, rajas and sattva...beyond this you have to ask a
Buddha or Avatar...The 3 worlds are symbologically The Sun, The Moon
and The Earth. The Sun is sattva, the Moon is tamas and the Earth
rajas. Rajas means work or reality, so we know what to do here: work,
work work ( W.W.W.).
