Somehow -- naturally, as compared to 'supernaturally' -- we take all the interior of the egg shape into our field of working knowledge. Fluctuations of light, shadow, temperature, air movement.
We come to "live in" our whole "range of motion" rather than just within the flesh.
Thanks mockingbird :)
I no longer use the term supernatural - i believe it's a misnomer.
I like the sound of what you're talking about - an expanded awareness brought about through a physical discipline.
I'm looking forward to returning to Wing Chun :)
Do you practice yoga or one of the martial arts? Quoting: ExileYears of practicing and teaching hatha yoga (the physical 'excercise' component of the overall philosophy), and study of the raja yogas (philosophy), with practice adapted in the Buddhist sense of moderatation to a healthy medium of living in the modern world without cutting myself off from the ambient culture. Actually I tend to think that any of the physical disciplines such as yoga or the martial arts which have a basis in 1) Physical -- not 'mastery' of -- but full, fluid, controlled physical presence in one's full range of motion, and 2) The philsophical basis -- not of 'mastery' -- but of responsible, well-balanced physical human life are pathways to this "full" sense of living within a realm of vibrant energy, as compared to merely occupying a torso with appendages.
