> > hi, I am new to the list and I find myself intrigued by the ongoing conversation. I resonated with the laser analogy. I am sure I will find it useful in ongoing attempts to cocreate structures where body, mind and spirit are honored.
I would like to add my perspective to the idea that relationship weaving is always present but flow states are discontinuous. I would also call "relationship weaving" the integrating function, the feminine aspect of the divine, yin to name a few. This aspect occurs in every moment. I would call a high flow state a transpersonal, transmental or a soul stage to name a few. As such a high flow state requires much effort to reach and maintain, as one must break through a chaos barrier between the existential and psychic stages. This endeavour is at the core of many spiritual traditions and takes years of practice following specific injunctions. I was intrigued when John said, "we set the conditions for high flow to happen..." I am very interested in hearing your injunctions for high flow to happen, especially regarding setting the conditions for a group high flow. Do you consider open space a practice that sets these conditions? Do you find that you need to add other aspects? What are they? thanks for the dialoguing, Tim Weidman
