From Egypt to the Promised Land Szeleky, in his little booklet called "Moses, Prophet of the Law," says that Eqypt, in the philosophy of a dynamic universe is the aspect of each of us when the free flow of vital energy is obstructed. From the moment of our birth there is always some obstruction. But there is also an exodus, a way out of the chain of Egypt.    We can be one less Narrow Place in the world, one less crack in the Unbroken Wholeness in Flowing movement that is Consciousness itself.  I call this Unbroken Wholeness the Enchanted Garden.  At this level, the Enchanted Garden is Consciousness itself.  When we get deep enough into feeling the Crack--The Narrow Place, the Wound--the hole--name it as you like--knowing it, sensing it, accepting it, welcoming it, it disappears. We are then back into a state of Love, we are back in the garden. Canaan is the place we are heading for.  This is the Enchanted Garden. On the Foundation of Life... Am I the Missing Peace?  "...the basis of civilization is nature and the natural laws based on the natural forces. These natural laws determine the correlations of civilization and society, for our civilization and society are only the superstructure built on the foundation of nature. The foundation determines the superstructure, while the superstructure only modifies and influences. So we cannot afford to neglect or ignore the natural forces, when we organize our life, whether individual or social." "The evolution of life on earth shows us endless forms of life, and all these forms of life spring from the struggle of these two antagonistic forces, the forces of gravitation and vitality." --From "Cosmos, Man, and Society," Edmond Bordeaux Szekely "All matter has vibration. Referred to as Chi by the Chinese, Ki by the Japanese, and prana or brahmin by the people of India, this invisible electromagnetic energy radiates in particular patterns from objects of all shapes and sizes." "A picture of a leaf using a Kirlian camera shows the "energy" of the leaf radiating from its edges. Cut off a corner of the leaf, and a new picture will still show the whole leaf, even though a part is now missing in the material plane."  --William Spear, in Feng Shui Made Easy And I ask, have I been the missing Peace?
