THE BEST HUNTERS ARE NOT THOSE WITH A NATURAL APTITUDE FOR HUNTING, BUT THOSE WHO HAVE HAD TO STRUGGLE LONG AND HARD TO LEARN EVERT TRICK OF THE TRADE.
Before we can tackle the concept of the hunter and what it means to hunt power we must first define the opponent. So the natural question is:
'What is power?
It is not easy to define power without getting tied up in words. It will be remembered from the Truths of Awareness, that power is defined as being the energy of alignment, meaning that it is the force which is released when energy fields inside the cocoon become aligned with the corresponding energy fields outside the cocoon. The result of this alignment is perception. So we can also say that power is the product of perception.
These are the two traditional definitions of power, but in themselves they tell us very little about how we should interpret power in practice. We can no more see power than we can see perception, but we can witness the effects of both.
The effect of power is perhaps best described as being what we understand as vitality, or alternatively, energy. If you feel inspired by watching the sunrise, that enthusiasm you experience is the effect of power, or the effect of having perceived. The enthusiasm or vitality is not power per se, but rather the effect of power, or more accurately, personal power*......
* The term used when referring to the energy of alignment in an individual being, as opposed to universal power which is denoted simply as power.
