347 Human Energetics Hugo Tobar Energetic anatomy is the study and description of the human energetic structures. They are: 1. Chakras 2. Meridians 3. Nadis (which includes Kundalini) 4. Aura 5.

Monadic Layer (Vibration) 3. Atmic layer Force or will) 4. Buddhic layer (Archetypes) 5. Mental layer (Thoughts) 6. Astral layer (Emotions) 7. Etheric layer (meridians, nadis & the Etheric web)) 8.

This is why doing a small figure 8 motion over a scar or injury is very effective to doing a large figure 8 over a large part of the body such as the torso is effective as well.

1 347 Human Energetics Hugo Tobar Energetic anatomy is the study and description of the human energetic structures. They are: 1. Chakras 2. Meridians 3. Nadis (which includes Kundalini) 4. Aura 5. Figure 8 energies (Webbing) The aura relates to different bodies, dimensions or planes, there are different models in understanding them, a widely used model is as follows: 1. Divine layer (Void) 2. Monadic Layer (Vibration) 3. Atmic layer Force or will) 4. Buddhic layer (Archetypes) 5. Mental layer (Thoughts) 6. Astral layer (Emotions) 7. Etheric layer (meridians, nadis & the Etheric web)) 8. Physical layer (Anatomy & Physiology) The figure 8 s are in fact a mesh like structure, which has been described like a webbing. This is why doing a small figure 8 motion over a scar or injury is very effective to doing a large figure 8 over a large part of the body such as the torso is effective as well. Meridians are channels that a particular can flow through. There are two types of Chi flows in the 14 meridians that have acupoints and Jing flows through the so called 8 extra meridians. The acupoints are like articulations, they can get clogged up, this causes imbalances in the energetic systems due to the blockage in the flow of chi. Figure 2, Detail of an acupoint There are 14 meridians that have acupoints, two of them are the principal meridians, they are called Conception vessel (Central Vessel or Central Ying) which is Yin and related to the brain (Cortex and limbic system) and Governing Vessel (Central Yang) which is related to the brainstem and spinal cord. After these two meridians there are 12 more, the order of which they flow is as follows: Figure 1, Representation of the different layers or bodies of the aura. 1. Stomach 2. Spleen / Pancreas 3. Heart 4. Small Intestine 5. Bladder 6. Kidney 7. Pericardium 8. Triple Heater 9. Gall Bladder 10. Liver

2 Lung 12. Large Intestine So the Chi that flows through these 14 meridians contains these 14 energies as its essence. These 14 energies together make a whole, they are complete and perfect. Together they make what is known as Chi. In fact these 14 energies are in fact 7 energies each having a Yin (female) and Yang (male) aspect. The fact that these 14 energies make a whole was noted by Richard Utt, the developer of Applied Physiology. This lead to the development of the Applied Physiology Hologram and to the concepts of formatting. These concepts were crucial to the development of Applied Physiology and post Applied Physiology developments such as SIPS, LEAP and Neuro Energetic Kinesiology. The Applied Physiology Hologram relies on the principal of Chinese medicine that within the part you can find the whole, or in the microcosm is the macrocosm. Richard Utt has developed a whole system of understanding human energetics based on the hologram. The holographic nature of the universe allows us to describe the energies as a relationship between these 14. hand positions. Mudra means attitude so jnana mudra means attitude of intuitive knowledge (where jnana means intuitive knowledge). According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, attitude has the following meanings: 1. Arrangement of the parts of a body (posture) 2. A mental position or feeling with regard to an object 3. The position of something in relation to something else 4. The position of an aircraft or spacecraft relative to a reference datum (as the horizon or a particular star) Yogic postures are called asanas. This word means a steady and comfortable posture. Asanas can cause a free flow of prana in the Etheric body (pranamaya kosha). In the Etheric body nadis are the channels that have prana flow through them, nadi means psychic passage or flow. Chi (14 meridians) and Jing (8 extra meridians) are forms of prana that flows at a different frequency or dimension. These make up the different frequencies of the Etheric body that is bound together by the Etheric web (figure 8 s) Figure 3, Representation of the Bladder meridian and its flow of Chi. Formatting Yogic techniques have been practised in India for thousands of years, hatha yoga, mudras are all ways of effecting the nadis and therefore the chakras. Nadis distribute between the chakras. Hatha yoga postures (asanas) effect the way prana flows through the chakras. Mudras are hand postures that mimic the effect of yogic postures. Swami Satyananda Saraswati in his book on yoga called A Systematic Course in the Ancient Tantric techniques of Yoga and Kriya refers to mudras as meditational Figure 4, Representation of the nadi system So when one adopts a mudra, a whole powerful array of psychic forces are accessed. With mudras we can access attitudes, postures and different aspects of nadi flow. According to Satyananda Saraswati, the mudras have symbolic meaning, neuropsychic implications and have power to evoke forces within the individual. Nadis course through the fingers, each finger has a polarity, the thumb is neutral, this is how fingers are used in Kinesiology, in a TL, CL or in a finger mode. IKC-Conference 2006 IAK

349 Formatting allows the Kinesiologist to use combinations of mudras (finger modes) and acupoints.

Combinations of finger modes and acupoints are used, they can be held simultaneously or sequentially. The kinesiological format enables an appraisal of the stress in the system, via the muscle test.

They allow the passage of prana between dimensions. 1. No change (no stress) 2. Indicator change, i.e. goes from a lock to an unlock or an unlock to a lock (first stage of stress also known as short term stress or fight flight) 3.

3 349 Formatting allows the Kinesiologist to use combinations of mudras (finger modes) and acupoints. The concept was first developed by Richard Utt from Applied Physiology, in courses such as Applied Physiology and the Brain and Amino Acids. Combinations of finger modes and acupoints are used, they can be held simultaneously or sequentially. The kinesiological format enables an appraisal of the stress in the system, via the muscle test. The muscle test can indicate the level of stress in the system. There are 4 different possibilities: Chakras Chakras are best described as interdimensional doors. They allow the passage of prana between dimensions. 1. No change (no stress) 2. Indicator change, i.e. goes from a lock to an unlock or an unlock to a lock (first stage of stress also known as short term stress or fight flight) 3. Over facilitated / Under inhibited muscle (Second stage of stress also known as long term stress) 4. Under facilitated / Over inhibited muscle (Third stage of stress or exhaustion) Using a combination of acupoints and finger modes, the energetic stress pattern of any anatomy and physiology can be accessed. If music is an analogy, then the finger modes and acupoints are notes and the format is a chord.

Source: Tobar 2002, Brain Formatting Figure 7, Representation of a Chakra intersecting with a nadi What is important to understand about chakras is that they allow a bidirectional flow of prana, one can give and receive through a chakra. This is like a door, one can enter and exit a room. These are the two aspects of a chakra: 1. Yin aspect (receiving ) 2. Yang aspect (giving ) CV 24 CV 23 Figure 6, The Limbic Format, which uses the finger modes for Anatomy and Gland and the Acupoints CV23 and CV24. This is used for balancing the limbic brain (the emotional brain). Figure 8, Representation of a 4 petalled chakra showing the flow of in the balanced yin aspect (left) and balanced yang aspect (right) Each chakra is made up of a number of cones or petals as they are known in Vedic literature. Each cone has its individual issues associated with it, the base chakra has 4 cones. When they are all in balance they can give and receive when appropriate. Chakras and cones can take two different forms of imbalance, they are: 1. over (OE) 2. under (UE) Under means there is a blockage in the flow through a cone or chakra.

So yin under is characterised by not being able to receive, for example in the throat chakra it is not being able to hear what is being said.

4 350 The Energetic Moro & Relationships Figure 9, Representation of Yin under (left) and Yang under (right) in the top cone of a 4 petalled chakra. What happens then is the particular cone or chakra is blocked from giving or receiving its particular. So yin under is characterised by not being able to receive, for example in the throat chakra it is not being able to hear what is being said. While yang under is characterised by not being able to give, for example in the throat chakra it is not being able to say what you want to say. Over means there is too much flowing through a cone or chakra. Figure 10, Representation of Yin over (left) and Yang over (right) in the top cone of a 4 petalled chakra. What happens then is the particular cone or chakra is giving or receiving too much of its particular. So yin over is characterised by being obsessed about receiving, for example in the throat chakra it is being obsessed about what is being said. While yang over is characterised by giving too much, for example in the throat chakra it is talking too much about the issue. This means there are six possible chakra states: 1. Yin balanced being able to receive the in its correct amount when appropriate 2. Yin under not being able to receive the 3. Yin over obsessed about receiving the 4. Yang balanced being able to give the in its correct amount when appropriate 5. Yang under not being able to give the 6. Yang over giving too much of the Stephen Wolinsky in his book called Intimate Relationships Why they do and do not work has an interesting theory that says at about 5 to 12 months of age the infant has a sudden realisation that they are separate from mom, this is a shock or trauma. The resistance to this shock or trauma affects all future relationships. This led him to understand why relationships do not work 1. Misperceptions and relationship distortions 2. Unrealistic expectations linked to the separation response 3. Confusions of the dimensions of manifestation and awareness, caused by the shock response The way out he says in his book can offer useful explanations to the following problems and questions 1. How and why you got where you are (determine where you are in a relationship and what is missing) 2. The problems you are facing (why it does and does not work) 3. Various remedies to deal with them (how to stop deceiving yourself by going into a trance which denies what is happening) Stephen Wolinsky then defines the problem as an attempt to resolve the pain of separation, which occurs through the following steps 1. Separation 2. Resistance to separation 3. Expectations of merger He says that problems arise in relationships in order to resist past separation and strive for merger. What happens then is that people will relate at one level but not another. Then what happens is that the awareness of other levels is lost or confused. Some examples of these that Stephen cites are: 1. I can relate at an emotional level but not at an intellectual level 2. I can relate in the external world, but emotionally the other is unavailable 3. We have a good sex life, but we have nothing to say to each other 4. There is something missing in the relationship but I don t know what it is He says that pain can be triggered by the past time shock of the realisation of separation, this could lead people to stay in relationships that do not provide nourishment for us to avoid: 1. Painful feelings 2. Painful beliefs 3. A poor self image IKC-Conference 2006 IAK

5 A fear of being unloved 5. Pain of lovelessness 6. Pain of worthlessness The False Core False Self Stephen Wolinsky describes the false core as follows: It is the one concept, the one idea, the one belief structure, we hold about ourselves, which organizes our entire psychology and gives us a reason for the separation. So often what happens is that people will seek relationships or a specific type of individual that either reinforces the false core or with the expectation of overcoming and resisting the false core. He describes the false self as follows: The False Self is the strategy that we develop and use to overcome the false core. He then says the following: In relationships we oftentimes in the beginning present the False Self adaptive identity image automatically. Unfortunately, we forget, and so does our prospective partner, that the identity is fake, something that was made up, not real, a creation. As the years go by we wonder why we feel alienated and misunderstood in relationship, not realizing it is the result of being stuck in the False Core False Self complex. More importantly our new relationship partner feels confused too, why is se/he different from how they presented themselves (False Self ) Utt, R., Holographic Muscle Monitoring, 3rd ed, 1993, International Institute of Applied Physiology, Tucson, Arizona Wolinsky, S., Intimate Relationships Why they do and do not work, 200, Quantum Institute, Capitola California Wolinsky, S., The Way of the Human The Quantum Psychology Notebooks Volume III, Beyond Quantum Psychology, 1999, Quantum Institute, Capitola California Hugo Tobar lives and works in Australia.

This happens in a marriage of false selves. All of this comes from the sock of realisation of separation, this is a shock to the base chakra, who am I? Where do I belong? Where do I fit in? Coming out of your False Core False Self complex, you can wake up and say why am I here? Why did I marry you? Bibliography Asimov, I.
