Portland is the epicenter of a movement, and long may Deepest Health be at the leading edge.

Hello everyone,

I concur with everyone. the holistic nature of chinese medicine allows for many interpretations because of its symbolism, which is good. otherwise without its dynamic qualities, it would not last the influences of time. methods and medium for interpretations are unique to the observer, and therefore shall reflect the lens of the observer, be it chaotic or structured. as far as i’m concerned, i’m truly enjoying the experience of Sagely Living, the guidelines prove effective, concise and clear.

my salty take home message: let it be. let it become. we are the fruits of your labor, oh, great Eric Grey and Abdallah, allow us to grow weedy and strong… you’ve embodied us with profound principles.

… a humble thank you at that.

Resonance works for me as a description. We're searching for ways to say, and do, the same thing. I know it. And so are many others out there lucky enough to do the work that we do. Symbols as energies that move us articulates it well. Thanks go to you for initiating this dialogue. And in fact, the posts are almost just the draw to get us to this point, God willing.

That makes a lot of sense and I find it extremely unfortunate that I wasn't sitting in that lecture in which your perception became spherical and your understanding crossed the not-really-there-chasm between reality and symbol! That sort of transcendent moment is most definitely more to the point than the writing itself. For me, however, the craft of writing can put me in that spherically enhanced state of awareness and compassion. So does full sensory engagement in the craft of acupuncture--feeling the pulses and meridians, meeting Qi with a needle and having a conversation with it... . As for Unschuld's system of correspondences, I agree that the term implies an organization of the world based on rationally related categories (correspondences). It is a good way to think about things rationally, but it doesn't kick-start a change in my consciousness by which I resonate with, see, feel and comprehend the spherical, sensory, multilayered tonality of a manifested symbol. I often use the term "field of resonance" when interpreting to my clients the 5-phase correspondences that ties their particular symptoms, signs and energetic habits into a manifest symbol. Different symbols resonate differently. If one can access the vibrational frequency of a particular symbol, that resonance (symbol) becomes the door through which we walk towards healing. In this way symbols are archetypal energies which have the power to move us in precise directions. Does that make sense? Thank you for initiating this discussion! Julie Hi Abdallah, Wow!
