on "the unconscious"
The physical body embodies the unconscious in its personification
of the internal landscape, where vital organs link with subtle
energy
currents,
where hidden bones map the borders of vast highways of
nerves, muscles, and cells while the winds of prana howl across
its
many valleys
and out through the external passages of
mouth and nose with each and every exhale.
