Flow, in the shape of a torus, is happening all around you… microcosmically and macrocosmically. It is the ever-present cyclical flow of energy that produces and sustains the atom, the earth, a chakra, a solar system, etc.
As the day cycle begins, we are immersed in its flow. A particular meditation begins and we are immersed in a different kind of flow. With awareness we are able to notice flows of all sorts. Breath = flow. Life = flow.
The movement of this energetic phenomena is called “toroidal flow” and it is the theme of this week’s meditations. Here’s how it serves: as the periphery of your awareness expands, it gathers more—it includes more. These details are “gathered” and they become your experience. You might say that the moment to moment flow of gathering experience and responding to that experience shapes your life. Evolution = flow.
Perhaps the shape of a life is toroidal!
Happy meditating.
