Visualizing the Torus 2
 2
In the first Torus exercise, you imagined
the flow of energy, information, and elements as they entered your focus, as you changed
their direction, as they left you to change the world around you.
In this exercise you will experience the flow of information through
the torus.
Doing the Exercise
-
Get warmed up with Richard's Three Step
Yin/Yang while walking on a familiar, flat road or path with no traffic or anything to
trip you (I mean use common sense here).
-
Begin by being aware of the flow of the torus as in the first
experiment:
-
The movement of information, energy, elements inwards into your
center.
-
The mixing of these with you and the moment when you change their
direction.
-
The movement of information, energy, elements outward from your focus
into the world in all directions.
-
The impact of your changes on the world and the critical moment when
you observe this impact.
-
Now begin to focus on the flow of information, especially information
you gain by sight.
For this part, you might want to have someone walking with you who
is willing to assist if you goof.
If you are unsteady on your
feet, or on unsafe terrain, skip the eye closing part.
|
-
Open your eyes as you inhale, bringing in
information (three steps left-right-left).
-
Close your eyes as you exhale, combining the
elements and information into you and your mind (three steps right - left - right).
-
Open your eyes as you progress, selecting your
pathway into the future (left - right - left),
-
Close your eyes as you walk your selected path (right
- left - right), and
-
Open your eyes for the next round (left - right
- left).
-
Close your eyes for 9 steps and open them only for the three steps of
the torus where you bring in information.
-
Focus on your growing desire to resume the flow of
information from your eyes.
-
Each time you open your eyes again, notice how you
have deviated from your desired track and how good it feels to see again.
-
Try to improve your performance by looking ahead
before you close your eyes and then using your other senses to keep on track.
Experiment with your feelings as you alter the
intervals with eyes open or closed (assuming normal precautions - like having someone by
your elbow and being on a level surface without cars, snakes, edges of cliffs, tree roots,
or trees or telephone poles to march into etc).
