Subtle patterns of movement [energy patterns] of expansion and compression of tension, rhythm, flux, speed or flow,
appear as borders and outlines give way to them.
These patterns of energy link us on a deeper or more conscious level to what we all
experience. The only difference is that we generally experience them confusedly,
emotionally or unconsciously [unawareness] and disinterestedly. Here are patterns to
link us to what we feel and see, in other words link us to ourselves and to our world.
Bodies become a crossroad of energies entering and leaving the originally dense or solid form. It becomes possible to look
beyond the physical accompaniments and gain insight into the character of things: possible to flow, glide or dart with the
flyer or with the masts of boats as they play around in the water or for the horse to dissolve in its own rhythms of speed
and power.
