Readiness check

Answer these without looking anything up.

  1. What are the two forms of energy, and which one feeds intention?
  2. Why does relaxing your muscles not remove stress, and what does he say removes it?
  3. If you cannot lower importance, what does he tell you to do, and why?
  4. Name the three vampire types and what each exploits.
  5. Why not store free energy, and what do you do instead?
  6. In the sphere exercise, what does a heavy head mean, and how do you fix it?
  7. Why does he call ageing an induced transition, and what keeps it going?
  8. How does the healing game differ from the illness game, and why is a coerced diet the illness game?

The next chapter assumes you hold one idea: energy is not a stock to hoard and push at the world with inner intention, because it flows through you when importance is low, so you approach people without force.
