I am two thirds through reading Joe Jaworski's book 'Synchronicity; the inner path to leadership' and i've had a light bulb moment. The book has just started talking to me.
Raja yoga, my main spiritual path, like many spiritual paths is a solitary one, it is an inward journey. The mind-body has a strong centrifugal force (especially for us extraverts!), yet practice turns and hones this into a centripetal one; everything focuses towards the centre.
Nevertheless, partly from belief and partly through direct experience, I feel that this journey to the centre of the self aligns and opens the body-mind energetic system. This moves the individual self to be one (perhaps in terms of energetic vibration/ entrainment) with a 'collective intelligence' (jungs collective unconscious comes to mind).
And this is what JW touches on in the 16th chapter. 'human beings have an innate capacity for collective intelligence. They can learn and think together, and this collaborative thought can lead to coordinated action. We are all connected and operate within living fields of thought and perception. ... Humans possess significant tacit knowledge - we know more than we can say. The question to be resolved: how to remove the blocks and tap into that knowledge to create the kind of future we all want.?'
Wow, JW just about tapped into my entire meta purpose there (see prev post)- no wonder I am buzzin. The blocks are clear; amongst them our limited realisation of self, our restricted (rather than open) maps of the world and our untapped energetic field (for you left brainers HRV, brain waves in delta rather than theta etc).
By moving to a state of energetic and physiological coherence we open ourselves to dialogue with the universe.
JW quotes the wonderful physicist, David Bohr when he compares this 'dialogue' to superconductivity. 'in superconductivity electrons cooled to a very low temperature act more like a coherent whole than as separate parts.' (note to self; read more DB philosophical stuff!).
Whilst this opening, this collective dialogue, starts with the individual, it is, after all, about energy, so undoubtedly someone(s) 'vibrating' at an influential frequency can influence the energy of the system.
Hmmm... I hope this doesn't sound too much like a Star Trek script (!) ... I feel this truth very deeply, but putting it into words falls short; as JW says 'we know more than we can say'.
