Learning by Doing

 Last week or so felt suddenly lots of soreness in ribcage, particularly along my back. Energy seems to be going deeper into muscles. At end of workday my muscle control in feet is much better and general dancelike fluidity. At beginning of day and throughout work however this can be nervousness, tension as I work all this energy through my body and it becomes a flow. I woke in the night and went to the bathroom, noticing a sore ribcage musculature, which was gone by the time I woke up later on  but my foot, leg control, agility is much better. Energy goes from trunk outward to limbs or up to down and heart, other main chakras feed limb movements, direct purpose in life. Venus is love while Mars is action. Passive and active, yin and yang. Dance is ok to loosen up, also yoga, tai chi, even a walk but extensive, long lasting flexible work translates that internally generated energy into body activity, especially with spiritual practice, prana awakening. Unfortunately laborers are generally not into esoteric practice so they just get worn out with age due to wear and tear. "Spiritual people" practice many things, maybe even get kundalini activation but like myself for many years this remains comparatively dormant as they lead professionally sedentary desk job white collar existences. I got this low level job and the physical stress has developed my energy over the years. I don't know exactly how this works. Stress hormones perhaps, higher heart rate as in sport or testosterone( various hormones in each chakra at higher level when very active). Combine that with higher socializing and mental focus under stress. Meditation is focus. So we just sit there.Picture a bland desk job, bland life. Then try meditating to up your energy. Or a bit of yoga. Ok first yoga cleanses, diet, mantras but I read a guru sent his student to work with flocks in the forest till he would be ready for next level in ancient India. The body is part of soul. We have to teach it focus, transform it into a living being, conscious at every movement, at cell level, continually.  The worse my job gets, the more my energy gets focused, directed. The more I learn. When the going gets tough the tough get going.
