Necessity of space

[Wendy Farmer-O'Neil]

Hi Doug,
You wrote:

But I think there is a next step, a deeper step: it is to the between. He writes of something *making* 
me feel alive, *generating* a feeling of life, *inducing* greater harmony: these speak of one (living) 
thing touching--meeting--another. It is this bumping, interacting, back and forth which is the 
essence of what he is pointing to. This happens only in the between.

I hear you speaking of ki.  Here is a quote from Terry Dobson Sensei:

You are not an inert piece of stuff.  You are a vibrating, charged, radiant being.  There is a meeting 
between us.  That's ki.

As i understand it so far, ki is conceptualized as permeating all matter, not just living beings. So it 
could also be experienced in relationship to open space, in any environment.

Cheers,
Wendy
