When our minds grow quiet, the vibrations of life strengthen and move us toward health and peace.
Sometimes, when we think of meditation, we think of stillness—the still pool of the mind that lies beneath the chaotic waves of our surface thoughts and emotions. Yet that stillness, just like everything else, is full of energy—the vibrating energy of life.
Vibrations of life energy can be perceived as subtle or small, only perceptible when our minds are quiet. These subtle vibrations don’t move our body. But when flowing and vibrating life energy encounters an energy blockage in the body, it moves and shakes us. These vibrations open the blocked, stiff meridian points throughout our bodies, giving us more vigor and health. Through movement, both chaotic and smooth, our bodies express life energy.
What caused the vital phenomenon called “vibration” to arise? The brain does. The brain has such a function. Who was it, then, who made the brain cause the vital phenomenon of vibration to arise?
Our Movements Reflect Our Minds
Vibration doesn’t happen when we are immersed in thought in our daily lives. But when we focus on our feelings and our thoughts cease, in other words, when we experience Jigam, our brains connect with the pure life energy of the cosmos. The energy of life is the power that returns everything to its normal state. So what arises in us is an autonomous vibration for normalizing our bodies’ abnormal waves.
When energy flows through our bodies, our hands and feet move on their own. Since it is like a dance, we call that movement “Dahnmu,” an energy dance. When the energy flows more vigorously, martial-art-like Dahngong movements emerge.
The brain executes that energy because, when thinking ceases, the energy of life grows stronger. The energy of life always exists within us. We are always connected with the great life energy of the cosmos. It is simply that this life energy is sleeping because the brain ordinarily is executing the thought of “self.” The brain has been carrying out the thoughts of the ego, not the energy of life.
When thinking ceases, however, the energy of life grows stronger, allowing the brain to run on that energy. The brain goes with the energy that is presently the strongest. Life energy is a power that returns everything to normal.
Also within this energy of life is the mind of life. When we are in the energy of life, our inner soul awakens, and a numinous mind arises within us. Then, we experience deep emotion, peace, and love. We’re at peace when we stop thinking and dwell in the energy of life, but we return to our ordinary patterns when we start thinking again. Then we reenter the world of our tangled thoughts.
How to Stay in the Fullness of Life Energy
What should we do? What do we have to do to always be able to work and think in the fullness of life energy? It’s simple. We just have to make good use of our minds. Use our minds for what? That’s why it’s important to choose and concentrate well. Our brains work on what is of greatest interest to us, and they go with the most potent energy. This principle is simple but clear.
Ultimately, if the circuit of cosmic life energy is strengthened in the brain, and so we overcome the power of our egos, then our brains start moving without resistance as our souls intend. A process for taming the brain is needed to reach that point.
We can use the power of the brain to its greatest extent when we have a dream and a clear goal. In this way, we can develop the power of our souls to overcome the power of trivial emotions and desires. And we can create the circuit of our souls in our brains. That’s why dreams and goals are truly precious.
Do you have a clear dream and goal?
