Shamanism in a Universe of Energy

 



There have been times in the history of human growth that community consciousness grew and the world became a better place.


The whole universe was turned upside down. These moments have also spanned decades, if not generations, as new ways of seeing the world—viewing it as circular rather than flat, or spinning around the Sun rather than the other way around—have increasingly progressed from concept to widespread recognition to accepted reality.

Reality is "simply" a matter of experience, of putting together an enormous amount of data into a cohesive structure that both awakens and restricts our understanding of the universe. Our perspective on life, like a compass reading, establishes the boundaries of what is considered conceivable. A flight through an ocean to remote places is not feasible for anyone who believes the earth is flat, since it would mean definite death. There isn't even an effort. A worldview that includes the precise passage of celestial bodies, on the other hand, provides for safe navigation through seas and oceans, as well as travel to the moon and back. Daring souls welcome the opportunity to reach above what others claim is impossible in light of new experiences. As a result, others are more likely to join in.

We are living in a watershed period in human history, where the whole earth, including ourselves, is now seen as made of electricity. A quantum physicist will undoubtedly tell you this, and will be able to back it up with all of the necessary statistics and figures. A healer who uses the laying-on of hands, an acupuncturist, or a homoeopath can both say you the same thing, though in somewhat different ways depending on their experience. A typical biologist or medical doctor who is now on the cutting edge of his or her field may still see the world in these words.

The implications of this paradigm change are unfathomable at this time. It will usher in new psychological, health, ecological, industry, and technological paradigms. All fields of human endeavor will be transformed, as a complete reassessment of realities and possibilities will be required. The ramifications of this new worldview alone for health and recovery are enormous. A review of the different facets of the improvements that will emerge from the realization that we—and the world—are made up primarily of energy is, however, beyond the scope of this essay.

Instead, it focuses on the energy body's anatomy and psychological mechanics. This applies to any situation or way of life and it sets the stage for comprehending shifts in reality on any scale.

The energy body paradigm proposed here serves as a unifying umbrella for all bioenergetic modalities and innovations, as well as a way of addressing personal and group circumstances, such as those related to imagination, fitness, and consciousness. The energy body, as part of our natural nature, not only binds us to our everyday environment, but also defines the full spectrum of our experiences and behaviour. As a result of a significant reorientation of conditions within the energy body, a fundamental change in perceiving truth occurs. This essay's focus on healing demonstrates the inquiry's realistic bottom-line potential.
