The Flow of Life Energies

E. F. Block IV 27 Feb 2004 Upda ed !"l# 20$0

The energies of li%ing organis&s are of &an# #pes. Those we nor&all# hink of as hea ' che&ical and &echanical are readil# "nders ood. The &ore s"b le energies er&ed scalar are no so well charac eri(ed nor "nders ood. )nl# li%ing organis&s are able o acc"&"la e and " ili(e hese energies ha are called Bioscalar energies. The concep of *+i* or *,rana*' ha energ# which is " ili(ed b# he ph#sical bod# of a li%ing organis&' is he er& ascribed o he energies of li%ing organis&s b# -hinese +igong and Indian .oga respec i%el#. These energies are "l i&a el# deri%ed fro& wo so"rces. These wo so"rces are he energies a endan o he /ra%i o&agne ic Field 0/1F2 of he Ear h and he 3olar

3#s e& In erplane ar# Elec ro&agne ic Field 1a ri4 033IEF12 of he 3"n' ,lane s and o her 5ea%enl# Bodies ha co&prise he 3olar 3#s e&. The /1F of all he 5ea%enl# Bodies' ha ha%e &agne ic fields' fl"c "a e in rh# h&ic p"lsa ions and ha%e d#na&ic flows of energ# wi hin hese fields. 6ll he /1Fs of hose 5ea%enl# Bodies ha ha%e &agne ic fields fl"c "a e and p"lsa e in resonance wi h he fl"c "a ions and p"lsa ions of he /1Fs of he 3"n. These resonances are &odified b# he in erac ion of a plane ' i s &oon0s2 and neighbors. The Elec ro&agne ic e&issions of he 3"n and !"pi er bo&bard all of space. This *Ligh * energ# &a# be absorbed b# li%ing en i ies and " ili(ed for %ario"s re7"ired f"nc ions. These energies are a co&ponen of o"r na "ral en%iron&en . These energies and fields are also a co&ponen of he &a er ha &akes "p

o"r "ni%erse. The forces a endan o &a er 0s"ch as gra%i #' n"clear and a o&ic forces2 are s"ch as o crea e he "ni%erse as we know i and he her&on"clear ac i%i # in ernal o he 3"n. 8i h he e4pendi "re of gra%i o&agne ic energ# and elec ro&agne ic energ# ha is genera ed wi hin and wi ho" he 3"n' is also genera ed one co&ponen of he *+i*9*,rana*. The o her is deri%ed fro& he food ha we cons"&e. The recep ion and " ili(a ion of he +i9,rana b# he h"&an bod# is open for disc"ssion' as no scien ific e4plana ion as #e has been offered. I will a e&p o do so. I is &# h#po hesis ha wha is referred o as he -hakra 3#s e& of Indian .oga and he 1eridian 3#s e& of -hinese +igong is he &eans for his recep ion' con%ersion and " ili(a ion b# he E heric Bod# 0EB2 of he 5"&an Bod# 05B2. The 5B has a ph#sical s r"c "re

ha is &ade "p of %ario"s ele&en s of &a er arranged in o &olec"les ha genera es a dis inc field d"e he na "re of he &a er of which i is co&prised. The bod# has wo par s. )ne par is he li%ing cells wi hin he bod# and he o her par is he e4 racell"lar &a ri4 ha gi%es he shape o wha we call he bod#. 6ll par s are co&prised of he ele&en s of he &a erial "ni%erse. The energies of he EB of he 5B are no he sa&e as hose of his &a er field. The EB is a res"l of he s"& of all he energies being genera ed b# hose cells ha co&prise he li%ing par of he bod#. 6 par of he energies are Bioscalar. Bringing oge her wo opposing s rea&s of he sa&e #pe of energ# crea es Bioscalar energies. The fre7"enc# and %ec or co&ponen s of he energies cancel and wha re&ains is scalar energ#. This Bioscalar energ# is hen " ili(ed b# he bod# :"s as ha of he energ# deri%ed fro& he food

ha we ea . The dis rib" ions of he s"b le energies for "se b# he li%ing bod# ha co&prise he EB are b# he 3#s e& of ;adis fro& .oga as ,rana and he 1eridians of +igong as *+i*. The 7 -hakras and < =an ian %ia he ;adis91eridians acco&plish con%ersion and dis rib" ion of he recei%ed gra%i o&agne ic and elec ro&agne ic energies. The < =an ian are he lower' he &iddle and he "pper. The lower =an ian con%er s he gra%i o&agne ic energies. The "pper =an ian con%er s he elec ro&agne ic energies. The &iddle =an ian blends he wo and dis rib" es he& o he 7 -hakras. The -hakras selec and dis rib" e he energies o he bod# regions %ia he ;adis and 1eridians. This is all acco&plished a he E heric -ore of he bod# and is con rolled b# he 8hole of he li%ing par of he bod# %ia gap :"nc ions

be ween each indi%id"al cell and i s neighbors. This is he &os ancien for& of coordina ion b# he li%ing bod#. I is he Bioscalar energ# ha s "den s of &edi a ion learn o c"l i%a e and " ili(e conscio"sl#. The dis rib" ion of energ# %ia he nadis or &eridians circ"la es he +i9,rana o he areas of he bod# for he f"nc ioning of he whole bod# 1orphogenic field ha s"b ends he li%ing bod# and he cells' he iss"es and he organs ha &ake "p he f"nc ional "ni s of he whole organis&' he 5B. This flow of energ# is 7"i e specific and has been &apped o%er he s"perficial s"rface la#er of he skin of he 5B as he >ang?F" &eridians of Tradi ional -hinese 1edicine. Th"s' fro& he core o he s"rface' here is a flow of +i9,rana o s"ccessi%e la#ers of he bod# iss"es and organs and back in o he core again in a c#clic pa ern. The word
