The word intangible at first sounds like we are addressing an unimportant matter. But if we think more deeply about the word intangible, we realize that many of the very most important things in life aren't "things", they are...intangible. The definition of Intangible, from Latin: unable to touch, vague, illusive. For example, the idea of "chakras" or energy centers in the body is intangible, you can't touch a chakra with your hand, saute it or film it expanding. However, each center represents a color in the rainbow, and a field of experience and activity in human life. These "rainbow rays of manifestation" are intangible, but real. What I have noticed is, when we work with subtle energies, healing, thought creation, prayer, creativity, connection, meditation; day by day - the experience of the intangibles takes on more life force than the tangibles.The example I'm fond of using when people roll their eyes (even inwardly- I can tell) about this concept of intangibility is love in it's different facets. Like a diamond heart with many rays of manifestation, love, that ocean of unfathomable bliss and sweet torture that no yogi or poet can capture: Love: Union, True Marriage, God, Goddess, Ultimate Self, Higher Self, Divine Light, Surrender. Well, all I can say is, looking at the roots and wings of words really...makes me think!
