There are three ways that energy moves in the world of energy movement. - Toward - Away from - Against I have used this model to notice that as my energy is moving toward, away from, or against, I am bound in form/identity. Beingness ... having no idea of separation or objectification ... doesn't do this. Xan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
