Introduction
I always want to start by saying don’t believe anything
I am about to tell you…
It’s a funny old business trying to explain the unexplainable.
Although everybody knows the word energy, what does this
term actually refer to? We might say, “She had funny
energy,” or “the energy of the meeting was off,”
even, “Switch off those lights, we’ll save energy.”
But what on earth are we all talking about and what is the
relevance of this to our daily life?
Welcome to our wonderful world of paradox.
Scientists tell us that their discoveries in the ‘New
Science’ are leading them quickly towards a world
of non sense, where traditional theories and ideas are as
illusory as the matter they are trying to quantify. Energy,
the stuff of all matter, can be solid and light, as well
as other things, all at the same time.
No answers here then.
But although the concept of energy may be hard to grasp,
humans do tend to have quite a good sense for it. Everybody
knows the one when they first meet somebody and they got
a funny feeling. Or perhaps they think of a person, the
phone rings and they are surprised to find that person at
the end of the line.
Curious.
The thing is that human life is all about energy. We are
made of energy. We live in a field energy. We consume energy.
We exchange energy. We receive energy and we spend energy.
We go up, we go down and most of us seem to spend a lot
of time going round and round…
If you’re interested in life, it’s weird and
wonderful workings. If you’re interested in health
or wealth. If you want freedom, peace or happiness. If you
want to see the end of suffering. If, for that matter, you
are interested in anything to do with the process of living,
sooner or later, later or sooner, you’re gonna have
to get down and have a jolly good old look.
Like I say, no answers. Quite a lot of non sense. And it’s
fun.
