This is a brief article about the power of just being conscious, beingaware of even the most insignificant looking details rather thanignoring and staying vulnerable. A number of exercises are includedto lead you into being more conscious of things about you that youreally dont pay much attention to, and a first step into knowingyourself and who you are and then being more conscious of whatcould probably be going on with someone else.

For any questions send me a mail at: [email protected] or

[email protected] with the title: question aboutConsciousness. You can also ask questions on the other articleMelvins Version of the secret Manifestation but with the title:questions about your secret version, to either of the same e-mailaddresses.

clairvoyance or psychokinesis. Lets begin with very, very,very simple issues analyzing this:Can you place a pillow under your little daughters headand cover her with a blanket after she has fallen fast asleep?Can you take a stone out of the way, so that passers-by dontstumble over it and fall? Well if you can do any of thesesimple things then you have satisfied one of our dictionarydescriptions of power: the ability to do something.Can you, as a man, get a ladys attention? Can you as a ladyget a couple of guys admiring you from a distance? If youcan, then youve satisfied another: persuasive ability.

If youve got the ability todo any work at all, from lifting anempty can off the ground and tossing it into a trash can orjust kicking it out of the way, you have got power, period.

So Ivegot power no matter how small, what do I do withit? Oh I know oppress others; yall better not mess withme!Well if that is what you have in mind, doing what youhave in mind would be a misuse of power and a sign of

immaturity. Aside from doing and action, there is power inother aspects of our being that do not require physical actionto be carried out and these include: the tongue, the eyes,touch, the nostrils and the mind. Have you heard sentenceslike: There is power in the tongue; what charming eyesyouve got; my nose knows; telekinesis? These werentmade up.Guys, when a beautiful girl you have been admiring allnight unexpectedly holds a loving gaze at you, doesnt itsend chills down your spine? Ladies, when a handsome guyyouve got a crush on smooth talks you and tells you howbeautiful you are, doesnt it give you butterflies? When amember of the opposite sex tries to get through to you on an

issue, dont you finally surrender to their persuasion afterthey touch you tenderly? We are able to detect meals thatsmell nice and would be good to eat just by perceiving itfrom a distance, cant we? We always want friends andfamily to wish us good luck before we embark on a journeyor take a decision, we like them to, dont we?

Believe me, we unconsciously know we all individually havepowers, we just dont pay attention. If a child realizes that hehas a talent for singing and resolves to become a singerwhen he grows up, that is a first step; he has to work on his

talent, in other words sing more for leisure. He has to lookfor ways to improve his singing, eat what can keep his voiceclear, keep away from what would get in the way of hissinging, and do some work-outs. When a man realizes thathe has an interest in a particular field in life, he will bedrawn to finding out more about that field, especially whatmany in that field dont know if he wants to stand out fromthem, he grows in knowledge and skill and in no time

becomes more powerful in that field. Therefore, that fieldrequires his undivided attention in order to make him agenius. We are not all born geniuses but become geniuses onthe long run; in the same vein we are not all born powerful(like the heir to the royal throne) but we become powerfulon the long run through knowledge or skill or both.All human beings have some innate power that needstapping into and the more we ignore it they remain barren,but when we begin to recognize it and pay more attention toit, we do something about nurturing it and when we do itgrows, and when it grows it doesnt just stay innate in us, itmake us powerful in ourselves.

We all have to have power over something, that is why it isinnate in us all, and to tap into this power we must followthe path that leads to its residence . And that path is ourconsciousness; consciousness of our being, consciousness ofother beings, consciousness of how we are connected,consciousness of the essence of love and consciousness of theessence of oneness.

Consciousness

Consciousness is a condition of the human mind beingaware of specific things or areas of understanding amidst apool of things that one can call to mind. If I call yourattention to a hundred dollar bill resting on a stool, youwould realize that it is there, yet it had been there all alongand you didnt notice it. I can say that, to you, it never

existed until I called your attention to it.Now that you are aware of the dollar bill what will you do,would you take it and use it or leave it there on the stool? Ibet you might go ahead and take it away from there beforesomeone else does. Whoever takes that dollar bill can finallydo a number of things with it that he couldnt do previouslywithout it, like buying something or paying for a service.The point is: you can now do something you couldnt dopreviously because of some temporal power you just gotfrom a hundred dollar bill. This is just an insight into havingpower in any form and using it.

If I told you about a certain kind of African delicacy knownas Tuwo-Shinkafa, you would have no idea about what it is.I might go as far as describing it and telling you how good it

smells and how good it tastes but you surely probably stillwouldnt get the picture and might forget all about it a fewminutes later. But if I brought the delicacy in question, toyou, you wouldnt know that it is Tuwo-Shinkafa until I tellyou. By doing this I have called Tuwo-Shinkafa into yourvisual and mind consciousness. When you taste it, it has


10/31

6

become part of your visual, mind and taste consciousness,the same with when you smell and feel it; it has become partof you in your mind/thought, taste, smell, sensation andvisual consciousnesses; that is: to an extent a big part of acollective consciousness; plenty of alternatives to call it backinto your awareness. You can now identify Tuwo-Shinkafain a number of ways with or without your eyes. You knowthe delicacy, first-hand and you dont need someone to tellyou about it. If Tuwo-Shinkafa was a person, your knowingit in all those aspects, doesnt necessarily mean that Tuwo-Shinkafa knows you, it doesnt and that leaves you with

something Tuwo-Shinkafa hasnt got: knowledge about youand your existence. This is an insight into being powerfuland what you can do with the power.

I would like you to think about this: of what good would itdo you if someone was out to kill you, he had all the info heneeded about you, your goings and comings, yourweaknesses and strong points and you have no clue who

this person is, what he knows about you, what he plotsagainst you and if he even exists? You are vulnerable, thatswhat it means! If it were the other way round, Im sure youwould feel he is like a cockroach that would soon besquashed by you, and he living or dying lies under your willpower.

With these insights is there a way to actually be in control ofany form of power and staying in control of it rather thanbeing intoxicated and controlled by it? Well, of course!

Taking control:

With the above initiation you can be sure to have a basictool for taking control of say food. If I go ahead to tell youwhat benefits Tuwo-Shinkafa could give to your body andhow nutritious it is, you can now decide to add it to yourfood table. When you are able to do this with a number ofother foods, you can finally regulate what goes into yourstomach, what doesnt and when to eat what. You can sayyou have taken total control of food in-take and your bodyas well. If you react negatively to a certain food, you can

decide to cut off from it or not if something else is causing aproblem.

You can take control of your well-being and when I meanwell-being I am talking about you as a person. You are amind, body and spirit balled up in a human being.Uncontrolled negative thoughts have a negative impact onyour physical being and your health, even your actions and

relations with your fellow man. A weak physical appearancemight get you thinking that you will never be able toaccomplish certain feats. Put all together, we have a manliving at the mercy of circumstances. To be in control ofyourself, know first that you operate in mind, body andspirit then understand and take note of what is involved ineach level

Spirit: emotion, meditation, aerobics, self-confrontation,detachment etc.Mind: thought, reasoning, hypothesis, postulation,nutrition, conclusion etc.Body: reaction, action, exercise, nutrition, gait etc.

that is a start!

Thoughts (when the mind is focused) and physical location(body) are aspects of mankind which limits him to a definitepoint in his existence in the universe at a point in time. Thespirit, on the other hand, is boundless. Great force, energyand power stems from love and pure and true love stemsfrom the spirit. Lets examine it:

Mind:you may think of showing love to someone by setting

your mind to it, but could that love endure trials of the bodyand provocative thoughts and stay true, especially whenyour emotion cannot tolerate things certain people do andyoure in low spiritsand they just got you in that bad mood?Do you think you can still show love to a certain kind ofpeople when one of their kind has already betrayed yourlove and trust in the past?Body: you may do works of love, in appreciation to a

gesture, but will you do works of love in equal or greatercapacity just for nothing, for those who constantly provokeyou, make you think youre worthless and make you feelbad and in low spirits and do not appreciate your love andsupport? On the other hand, would you consider yourselfable to do things out of love for someone who is alwaysthere for you as equally as you would for someone who isnever there for you or never has your interest at heart?Spirit: you may always be moved to show love for all nomatter what, but would that love last longer if you wereeither in low or high spirits, your body was weighed downand you thought your love was not appreciated? Would youstill be able to stay back comfortably and watch those who


13/31

pissed you off in the past continue to suffer and you werethe only one who could bale them out, but you want to holdback because you think no punishment might ever beenough to atone for all their vices?

If you have ever truly been in touch with how you have evertaken critical decisions paying attention to if it was mentallyoriented, ability and skill-oriented or spiritually oriented,and you want to give sincere answers to the above threeaspects cited in mind, body and spirit, you will realize thatoptions are more likely to be weighed in mind and body but

not in the spirit. The spirit doesnt weigh options; it balancesthem. The mind and body may control each other butneither of them can control the spirit.The mind plays the middle man between material andimmaterial realms of the human being. The body resides inmans physical/material realm; his emotions, thoughts andspirit reside in the immaterial realm.The mind has power over the physical using the emotions as

a vehicle to the body; the mind has no power over thespiritual but connects with it using nothing but thewillpower. If your body is weak you begin to think youcannot carry out specific tasks; you will also feel you cantdo certain things; and this is usually the case if youre moredetached from your spirit than in touch with it.

POWER SOURCES

When we address power sources we should always keep inmind that it is always from one source that generates it intwo natures; either it is negative or it is positive( yin/yang,good/evil, light/dark etc). the two complement each other,they have to be both present before a force or power can becalled into play and be useful. For every male with theirmasculine and strong structure, there is always a femalewith their feminine and soft structure. They need each other.Every energy, force and power has a masculine aspect which

is complemented with a corresponding feminine aspect. Aman and his wife who have complementing characteristicsare more likely to find their marriage more exciting as theyears go by and have a stronger love for each other and agreater bond with each other than a couple who have almostall characteristics in common. *[This is just a thought andnot a proven conclusion to any hypothesis]. The point here isthat power has two sides to it. A man who is truly powerful

and in control of his power, would fall into either or all ofthese categories:

A leader who is ready to serve, and his followers arepleased and ready to serve with him.

A follower who is willing to abide by lawsunder thegoodgovernanceof his leader.

One whopracticeswhat hepreachesto his protgs. An eloquentman wins the attentionof the audience.

#Take note of the contrasts in underlined italics. The firstcontrasted with the second. There are two sides to the poleof an energy field, whether it is electric, magnetic or biologic,they generate power; not one without the other, butconcurrently.


15/31

There is without a doubt power in the mind, there is nodoubt that there is also power in the physical body but thereis a great deal of it in the spirit! If you are more in touch withyour spirit your body gets empowered and the task iscarried out. In essence the source of great power lies in thespirit realm, but you cannot have access to even a fraction ofthat power if you refuse to be conscious of it. The trueconsciousness is in the spirit. The more conscious man isabout what is, the more powerful he becomes; the moreindifferent he is about what is, the more vulnerable he

becomes. You will agree with me that no one wants to bevulnerable to anything, but wants to be in control of theirown situation, to have power over their own circumstances,but we must remember that there are two sides to power asthere are to every other thing; there is a good side and a badside, there is negative power and there is positive power.Negative power wouldnt do us much good so we need toseek for positive power; that is where we should centre our

energy consciousness.

Seeking Unlimited Positive Power:

It is true that positive thinking, emotion and mindsetresonates with positive power, circumstances, situations andenergies and negative thinking, emotion and mindsetresonate with negative power, circumstances, situations andenergies but in most cases, it may not be enough to just thinkpositively, and set your body into action to achieve; youhave to be propelled in entirety to be in high spirits to bePOWERFULLY SUCCESSFUL and stay so.

Seeking materialism, possessions and all other forms ofvanity limits the individual; it is in seeking for peace andwell-being that abundance, wealth and health of mankindresides. If we are not in touch in spirit there will always bechaos, because we all think differently, we all have varyingphysical capacities, and we all have varying emotionalresponses to different situations; but we all speak onelanguage in the spirit.

Most psychic healers, make us understand that before an

illness manifests on the physical body, it can be spotted atthe aura. Giving the afflicted a spiritual healing can cure himbefore it manifests physically and ways him downphysically. When you are very in touch with your spirit, youare more in control of yourself in terms of identifying andresolving problems that are emotional rooted and yet tomanifest physically; you can also identify what your truestand on an issue is; now how powerful a being is that? No

one can call you names that can succeed in weighing youdown because you know who you truly are.

When you know yourself, according to the book: The Art ofWar, you have half victory already, and if you knowyourself and you know your enemy, you have full victory.But how do you know your enemy, or better still how doyou know your fellow man? Its simple, be conscious of him.When you choose to stay conscious about certain things, youare capable of taking control of it; you are getting powerfulto it.


17/31

Take a simple problem for instance: ignoring the problemdoesnt make it go away; acknowledge or admit you have aproblem, and that is a first step but do not dwell on it. Nextfind out how severe it is, what led to it and what it can leadto, then find out ways to resolved it, permanently. By doingthis you already have power and control over the problem.

Take another example: we know we are all connected,humans, animals, plants etc., you know what your needs areas a human and it is identical to all other humans. You eat, Ieat, you feel I feel etc whatever, its the same though we

have different attitudes but what can sustain me can sustainyou and what can kill me can kill you. What of the otherthings that can happen to us and that we can do beyond thephysical activities that we dont pay attention to? If I amconscious of that, find out how it is beneficial to me and allbeings and go ahead to use it, growing more and moreconscious of it, doesnt that give me an edge over you whoare unconscious of it? It makes me more powerful and more

in control than you are, doesnt it?

GETTING IN TOUCH WITH THE POWER

I would like to use two tools concurrently for this activity,my first tool here would be a skill or better still, a talent (itdoesnt necessarily have to be a talent you possess, be itsinging, dancing, poetry, comedy, acting, arts and crafts,sports anything), because Im about to try and make youdiscover a talent that could be lying dormant within you.Before we proceed, I want you to remember that you have to


18/31

14

completely believe in yourself no matter how impossibleyou had previously thought that that talent couldnt be oneof yours; put your mind, body, spirit and emotion into thisdevotedly, and one more thing make sure it is a positivetalent, if otherwise just throw this manuscript away. Mysecond tool would be the sub-conscious mind. Let me tellyou a little something about the subconscious mind, theconscious mind and the universal mind. Have you eversleep-walked? Have you ever wondered what you weredoing at a particular place after being shaken by a suddennoise? These are some works of the subconscious under the

command of the conscious mind or universal mind. Thesubconscious takes anything the conscious gives it. Forinstance, do you know that when you tap someone while heis half asleep and tell him, Hey, dude get up, someoneswaiting for you outside, that the sleeping person obeyshelplessly and when he gets outside he keeps standingthere? You were conscious and manipulating hissubconscious. Try asking someone a question while they are

half asleep, I bet you know theyll tell you the truth . Theuniversal mind is where thoughts of everyone becomes onethought. Lets begin shall we?

Activity 1:

Firstly:Be conscious of any talent at all, then acknowledge thattalent as yours, then affirm that you have it and it hadalways been with you since you were born. This is intendedto help you slowly burn the idea of this talent into sub-conscious mind.


19/31

15

Secondly:Try to be practical with this talent (no matter how badlyyour performance seems, do not be discouraged, press on;do not be a quitter) while you are conscious of it (whetheryou have it or not believe you have it). This is intended tomake it slowly slip further into your sub-conscious mind sothat it becomes part of you and when this becomes the case,you become more proficient with the talent over time both inyour conscious mind and your subconscious mind. If you goahead and meditate with it, you gain access into theuniversal consciousness and you tap into insights and ideas

on how to improve on that talent. [Remember, geniusesdidnt become so in a day, aside from prodigies].

This you can say is a form of staged attunement with thetalent. Therefore, you being you and me being me, becomesa former status because I remain who Ive been withwhatever abilities I had always had, but you become [you+

an additional talent]. So you become more powerful thanyour former status with a new talent you previously didnttap into. When you do this activity with other talents youwish or hope to develop, you become more powerful inrelation to the number of newly developed talent. When youtry meditating and allowing your mind to tap into manyother possibilities you expose yourself or rather attuneyourself to the possibility of becoming one of the mostpowerful beings in the world.Humans are capable of anything, all humans have to do isbelieve with their mind, body, emotion and spirit.


20/31

Activity 2

Know yourself; only then will you be at the threshold ofyour journey into being very powerful. When you knowyourself, you begin to understand others, then have youstarted your journey into being very powerful. When youknow yourself and understand others, you begin toappreciate mankind; when you do you appreciate what addsto mans well-being [air, water, trees, plants, vegetation,animals, elements and peace]. When you do, you are in thestate of Love and when you are, you are already powerful.

The journey into power, must take place in mind, body andspirit, unless you miss the path. The journey starts from thespirit, down to the mind, then the physical body. You cantsee the mind or the spirit, but you can see the body. Themost powerful realms of existence are the unseen, and onlythey have a true influence over the seen, not the other wayaround.

Never let your mind or your body try to govern your spirit,its futile and trying to do so gets you growing weaker andweaker. Examine this carefully. The mind is like, the mid-way, it has to be silenced for the spirit to be in animation. Aslong as it is unsettled the body remains detached from thespirit, and the mind reasons according to the dictates of thebody. The mind should reason according to the dictates ofthe spirit, in order to propel the body into carrying out themost powerful and effective deeds.

We have the keys to mapping the route to true power, weonly need to know how to use them; when we do we find


21/31

17

God and when we find God we find the true power. So hereis another consciousness pathway: attunement.How does one get attuned?

AttuningLiterally, attuning is like trying to adjust something to bereceptive to something else; more or less like balancing orharmonizing. Like the common physics experiment with atuning-fork, when you strike it somewhere it begins tovibrate and when you place it on something else that is

static, it raises the vibration of that static object and theirvibrations begin to match up giving off a fine tune. Our nextactivity will be more like this tuning-fork experiment.

Activity 3

For this exercise you can use the speaker of your stereo or

c.d. player or the voice of one who has a bass voice.FirstlyPlay a musical especially one that has a strong bass-line (likethe Hip-Hop song Mo Money, Mo Problems). Next, placeyour palm on top of the player or preferably on the wooferpart of the speaker. Notice how your palm vibrates as thebass plays along; not just your palm but the entire arm andin most cases the entire body.

SecondlyTake your hand away from the player or the woofer andleave it somewhat in front of it without contact. Notice howyour hand still experiences vibrations going through it and


22/31

18

your body, even though its not as much as when your handwas in contact with it. Notice also how you feel the vibrationon the chair you are seated and on the wall in the house.

ThirdlyWalk as far away from your house as you would not hearthe song anymore and notice how the vibration stops goingthrough your body.*when people are farther from your circle you have little powerover them but when they come into your circle you have immense

power over them.

Im sure while doing this experiment your body also feltsome kind of warmth and if you are not used to heavysound you might begin to feel some strong headache. This issomething not new to you, you know it ordinarily but youdont put much consideration into it, but when you decide tomake a little deal out of it you would be able to infer ananalogy from it on some other puzzles in life and getanswers. This activity with the speakers is something you

know subconsciously, but as I have called it to yourconsciousness, Im sure you wouldnt even need to put onyour c.d. player to have a feel of what Im trying to makeyou achieve, you already know. [but do it anyway].

When you are in the midst of choristers when they are singespecially the bass singers you will notice how where youare seated vibrates. We send out very pronounced vibrationswhen we sing, talk, shout, quarrel, hum, whisper etc. wealso send out vibrations when we think, dream, daydreamand reason. Try something with a friend, one of you shouldbegin to hum and then the other should join later. You willrealize that there is harmony, because of a variation in voice


23/31

19

texture and there is a higher quality of sound and you bothfeel it, that when one stops it has a sudden effect on your onsound and voice; you were both attuning to each othersvoice when one person stopped it stopped. We alreadyknow that a cool music can be a pacifier for certain ailmentswhile lousy music could only make your situation evenworse.You should realize now that in order to attune with anythingthat thing has to have a higher vibration than ours and highvibrations of the best quality produce sounds that the earscannot pick up. So our instrument for attuning to the source

of great power would be none other than our minds. Theminds have to be silenced to pick up this high vibration andresonate with it; you can sum this up in one word:meditation.

In the above activity, we voluntarily used our mind to feelthe reverberating stimulus, which is just part of what everyliving creature experiences everyday. We know that just as

energy has a negative side and a positive side we also havevoluntary and involuntary aspects and our voluntary aspectsprings from our conscious minds, while a number of ourinvoluntary aspects spring from our subconscious. So if wecan attune with the conscious literally, how can we attunewith the sub-conscious? One thing has always been for sure,the mind is the major tool.

Let us do another practical thing:Do the previous activity again, if necessary and then takenote of how your entire body resonates. Now for this nextactivity we will use the actions carried out by parts of the


24/31

20

body that we have no control over [breathing and theheartbeat].

Activity 4:FirstlyPlace a glass of water in front of you, make sure it is half fullso you can see the level of the water when looking sidewaysat the glass. You may place this half-full glass of water oneither a table or a stool and this should be directly in front ofwhere you will be sitting for this activity.

SecondlySit comfortable on any stool or even a sofa, relax yourself byloosening every tension in your body, beginning from yourtoes to your angles then gradually up your shin and calvesto your knees, then your thighs, then your hip (this placeespecially, as you are seated) then your upper torso, yourneck and then your face.

ThirdlyPlace your palm on your chest where you can feel thepumping of your heart; get a feel of the tempo and note it _note how your body vibrates and shakes with everyheartbeat because this happens every second of our lives.Breathe on it real slowly and make sure you are still totallyrelaxed.

FourthlyNow, remove your hand slowly from your chest as you stillpay attention to the tempo of your heartbeat. Take yourattention to your ears and attempt to hear your heartbeat as


25/31

21

you are seated, by now your hand is carefully placed besideyou and continue to feel how your body is still shaking.

FifthlyNext, point your index finger at the half-full glass of water infront of you until the tip of your finger touches it gently. Youwill notice that the water which used to be still willsuddenly begin to shake and remain unsteady as long asyour finger remains on it.

The next activity centers solely on breathing. For this wemust breathe properly: when you breathe in make sure yourdiaphragm goes down and your tummy protrudes outwardsand when you breathe out make sure your diaphragm risesand your tummy moves inside.

Activity 5

Breathe in very slowly, and as you do let your thoughtfollow the in-flow of air (pay attention to how air flows intoyour nostrils, through youre your throat and down yourtummy, all the way to the base of your spine). You mustrealize that some air also goes to your head as some godown your throat into your chest. Hold the breathe for asecond before breathing out and as you do let your thoughtsfollow the out-flow of air from your body. You may use anysweet-smelling flower for this exercise, if you wish, as youbreathe.


26/31

22

With every intake of air it feels as though your entire body,from sole to crown, tries to expand and with every outflowof air it feels as though your entire body contracts and triesto squeeze out toxins. This implies that your body needseverything fresh going into it and everything stale going out.The fruits, vegetables and food we eat should all be freshbecause they go into our bodies, so also should the air webreathe. The water we drink should be clean and the juicewe drink should be fresh. Its not only inside the body thatneeds refreshing but the surface as well. When it is time topass feces, do it; when it is time to pee, do it, dont hold it

back they need to leave your body because they are stale andtoxic as the carbon-dioxide you breathe out. I wont forget tomention your mind; all those ideas, emotions and thoughtsneed to be expressed not locked inside. Anything producedinside the body has to be let out at an appointed time andanything going in isnt meant to stay in forever. Be dynamic ,think of happy events ahead and forget the past events thatweigh you down but learn from them though. [This could

probably keep you younger].

For this next activity being in an airy environment would beperfect, but you dont have to worry if your location isntairy.Knowing that air is all around us and the human skin haspores, air could probably not get in through them but wastesure comes out from them in form of sweat. Keep this inmind for this activity.


27/31

23

Activity 6

As you take in air, imagine that it not only goes in throughyour nostrils but it also goes in through every aspect of yourbody i.e. your hand, your feet, you arms, your sides, yourback, your front, the crown of your head, everywhere. Holdit for a second, and as you breathe out imagine everythingstale (be it air, water, negative emotions and thoughts,annoying past memories and everything toxic that you nolonger want inside you) flowing out through your nostrils,hand, feet, arms, front, back, crown and everywhere. [doing

this exercise is expected to rid you of bad energies andrefresh you with clearer and rejuvenating positive energies.Anyone coming around you will feel good and also feelenergized unlike a previous time when they must have beenfeeling irritable with no good reason when they comearound you as a result of weak energies].

Energy and its forms

We cannot talk about power without referring to energy andneither can we talk about consciousness without energybeing involved. Power needs energy in order to be calledinto play and everything re-energizes. If you were a sciencestudent in your college days or high school days, you willremember that energy has different forms e.g. light, heat,chemical, sound, etc. There are other forms you may notknow about such as color and thought energies.

Our potential energiesHeat is a form of energy we give off more than any otherform and I want you to pay more attention to yours rightnow. Place your left hand on your right arm, right now,


28/31

24

what do you feel? Warmth, right? That is heat energy. Whenyou walk into a spacious room that is completely empty, youget the true room temperature of that room, but whenenough people walk into it, that there is no space for onemore person to get in, just imagine the heat that is built up inabout five minutes, especially if everyone is dancing; I betyou if the extra person who couldnt get in just places hisarm from outside into the room, his arm would warm up.You can try it, if you doubt.The heat you feel around your body, and that of otherpeople is your initial contact with the human energy field.

When the body gets rid of negative energy, the heat of theenergy field rises. For instance, a man who is worried-sickcan sweat profusely in an air-conditioned room. When thebody is filled with positive energy the energy field maintainsa normal body temperature.

Energy can be felt in form of either, heat, vibration,something cold, tingling sensations, pulse or magnetic

repulsion; this also applies to our energy fields. It can beperceived through the eyes, the nostrils, and for some othersat times through the fingertips. It can be heard in form ofbuzzing and any high or low frequency sounds. It can betasted as well.

Let us do one more activity for consciousness

Activity 7

Scratch the back of your hand. Usually when you do this,you notice the sensation for about that moment and then itsgone, right? But if you pay attention when you scratch that


29/31
