Guest guest Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Thanks Anthony, I've taken classes on the radiant circuits/strange flows. What I know has been more on the practical applications side rather than the theoretical. I know that they work for me, I know how to get them to work, I can't explain much of the why's behind them...yet. So that's where I am now, suddenly wanting to know more whys so I can get better at the hows. Knowing that the penetrating flow is the sea that supplies the meridians just opened up a new awareness, and whole new area for me to notice and explore. New applications to discover. Reminds me of the time it was pointed out to me that we have auras and that we could see them. I didn't know this, so I never bothered to look for them, and when I did look, there they were. The more I looked for them the more I saw and felt of them. Will let you know what I find.
