| | Buddhists have a particular type of meditation called Tonglen. The idea behind it is to help people by taking into yourself a dark, heavy, negative energy while at the same time breathing out a soft, kind, light energy. I've often wondered about this. I think clearly when we are close to one another there is something (perhaps something biological or some subconscious perceptions) that can create a sense of energy in a room, or place.
However, that sort of begs the question. So, I'll put it out to you. First, is there really a literal energy that we put out? If so, then can we affect it with out actions? My rationalist side wants to say that's silly and akin to a belief in ghosts. However, my experience seems to speak against my rationalist side. So, what do you think? |
