One translation of life force is qi, the energies that move around and through us and in the environments of which we are part, as defined through Taoist healing practices and Chinese mantic arts (Liu Ming). Life source, from the perspective of the vivid grove, is more like a well, or a pond of energy that resides under each one of us, that we can access if we attune to it - this is an aspect of living in the garden sense. These phrases are like a beacon for me, and are the basis for pulsations, or the organic, orgasmic opening and closing that motor the movement of life, the Tao, aliveness. and life, itself. As I write this, I feel the influence, voices and connection to my teachers and ancestors, such gratitude for this.
