Also, here's the really big deal. Taoist philosophy has no ASSEMBLAGE POINT. There's no ASSEMBLAGE POINT in the taoist alchemy or in the tai chi classics. How is that even possible? I don't believe the ancient Chinese sages would have just LEFT THAT DETAIL OUT.
Ya, go figure. Maybe the AP is something exclusive to the lineage it was described within. Who knows? Who cares? I've never seen it, but that doesn't mean its not there to be seen. I like the way this lineage's system of perception is organized, in terms of a description.....have an affinity for it (even though I have no loyalty to it), so am happy to describe things in its terms. I mean, honestly.....if what's behind the description is indescribable then who cares which system one picks to talk about it? Just pick one that resonates more or less. Or make one's own, IDK.
Anyways, yeah...sounds like you're well aware of energy's effects amidst your own field of view. Like you, I don't know the motive behind the movement so to speak. But I like the feeling of being motivated by that motivation...i.e. being in alignment with it. Being a simpleton, that's more than enough for me. And what choice do I have? All I see are varying degrees of alignment with that force. Progressive disalignment is progressively dullness and, ultimately, probably terminal boredom. Not a fan
