\"gridiron1\"What feels real during and even in the aftermath of an intense body flair is that I push away the energy with all of my available strength.\u00a0 That I push and push and push yet harder and that I win<\/em> only by the skin of my teeth.\u00a0 I prevail in each instance, only to believe that the next time I will not be able to do so again. \u00a0That is the believed story.\u00a0 That is what it feels like for the body organism.<\/p>\n

The construction of the belief stems from two observations.\u00a0 First, there IS energy felt.\u00a0 Second, actions (as well as non-actions, which for the purpose of dialog are still considered actions in this context) take place.\u00a0 The energy is felt inside the body organism.\u00a0 The actions seem<\/em> to originate inside the body organism.\u00a0 So the afterthought, the conclusion (however erroneous) is that the body organism produced the energy and also authored the acts.\u00a0 No other conclusion could be made – IF we believe energy comes from inside the organism.<\/p>\n

But does energy come from inside the organism?<\/p>\n

I wondered about this yesterday during the flair.\u00a0 There were moments that it seemed that energy flowed on a very large grid.\u00a0 That this body organism was but a mere speck on the grid.\u00a0 Yet the grid station could not perceive the landscape of the grid and thought it was a remote energy station all on to itsSelf.\u00a0 This perception was challenged (or perhaps shifted organically) at times during the flare … at certain points there was a seeing<\/em> that the energy traveled along the grid in a wide and very complex web of lights.\u00a0 In this moment of conceptualization I could see when a bolt was coming towards the grid station and I could see a zap leaving the grid station.<\/p>\n

From inside the station however, it was not possible to see the complex energy transport grid.\u00a0 Only from this imagined macro perspective did the surge make sense.<\/p>\n

I wonder then, if energy DID in fact come and go through this grid station on a much larger complex framework …. Could actions<\/em> that seem to generate from inside this grid station really have been generated from inside, or is it possible that they too come from the gridiron?<\/p>\n

Seems interesting to contemplate and experience for mySelf … does the gridiron exist?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
