A String of Consciousness

The first part of this blog was a (somewhat veiled) comment made in the Facebook group Energy Medicine Exchange. The second part is a commentary elaborating on the idea as a practice. It is a way of thinking about it and not meant to be literally accurate - only effective.

Comment:
I always liked magnets. I played for hours as a kid with bar magnets, a piece of paper and iron filings. I was struck by the magnetic field as the cross section of a toroidal shape. The field was large but I was drawn to the center line, the bar, where the field seemed stronger, more dense. I began to imagine myself as a bar magnet. I suspected that references to the sushumna nadi and later to the Governing Vessel (w/ conception vessel) had something to do with this center line. Today ideas of chakras and meridians all take second place to this central core. It is here I go to find the heart, the three Dan tien, all that I need. It is here I now go (as energy worker) in lieu of addressing energy points. It is here where my momentary intention is enlivened. It is my magic wand, the phallus of Shiva. I work with this core, its sacred tremor, its song as likened to a variable tuning fork. This channel which is of infinite extent yet fits easily in the heart space... or anywhere in space. Within is the light of life and death, a perfect stillness of being. Infinite spaces are woven into it as a single thread, and a silence that makes all sounds distinguishable. It is the axis round which my universe extends outward and dances as it spins.

Commentary:
A line is but a series of points extended. Each point on the line exists only by reference to another point. And let's call the first point the "heart" - only so that it has a name. The heart is always only here and now - in eternity one might say. Extended points give the illusion of time, by which one may have the illusion of motion and the perception of vibration. Vibration is the necessary and impeccable alternating  of attention between any point and it's heart reference - which ultimately is a function of consciousness.

Now imagine a line from above the crown to beyond the body base. further imagine that it is as the string on a musical instrument. As one shortens or lengthens the string the vibration changes.
Now imagine a plane perpendicular to the string at some point - in effect shortening the length of the string as with a musicians fingers pressing the string to the neck of the instrument changing the note.
Consider again the idea of a plane intersecting the string and the vibration extending outward creating a geometric pattern much like a table of sand when vibrated creates a pattern unique to the vibration.
Now imagine the line referenced above and compared to the string as having unique vibratory sounds and geometries associated with each of its points.

This is what I refer to as the central column. Using the imagery of this column may recall descriptions of the Sushumna nadi or other metaphysical constructs of subtle anatomy. However flawed it may be as an accurate representation of gross energetic anatomy, it is none the less effective in energy work involving meditation or healing applications. there seems something of a principle here that the pre-conscious mind can work with.

One may intuitively scan the length of this column for blocks and release them in oneself and others. One may locate frequency harmonics related to varied conditions of dis-ease and it's release. One may simply touch it and surrender conditions to its innate wisdom to make adjustments in accord with a gentle intention of correction toward wholeness.

This column may be associated with the body as with a transparent overlay. Yet it may also be liberated from the proximity of the physicality. It may be associated with any point in space and seed like grow from this point - much as an apple seed grows forming a central core with a somewhat toroidal three dimensional all aroundness.

Metaphysically considered this column runs from below the base of sex, to the pure relational love of the sacred heart to the bliss above the crown.It is as the trunk of the tree from which many fruits form on its branches as energetic fields.

For those who use their hands, consider the posture of praying hands and the center line where they touch. as the hands part and one plays with the sensate energy between them the point and the line are considered as still present by inference. play with this knowing and the aspects of point, line and ball as three loci of energy. Even working silently and at a distance, sense the three aspects of another as your hands enfold them.

Meditatively smiling into the column and using the energy of the felt meaning of this non verbal and pre-verbal inner smile as a calibration tool can remove any knots of locked energetic function found in the column and restore a balanced free flow of information associated with ideal function.The smile and the core ultimately merge in my experience as a purity of perception.

There is much more that can be said of this way of working but I am always operating from the view of experimenter rather than system maker, so I here offered a few insights that others may expand upon. The ethical among the readers will credit me for the gift should they make use of it in sharing with others.
