The bird proudly willing to burn,
So that he may live again,
Chooses the flames of fires
That burn the aged Phoenix
The nature stands still
Till a new young bird starts again,
and begins the legend of the Phoenix.
- Claudian (Roman author)
Legend has it that
one day many many moons ago; the Sun looked down and saw a large bird with
bright red and dazzling gold feathers. The Sun God blessed him, "Glorious
Phoenix, you shall be my bird and live forever!"
Since then it has
been the destiny of the legendary bird. It lives and a time comes when it loses
all the energy to live anymore. It is then that this creature sets to self
immolating itself. But the blessings of the Sun God don’t wane away. The Phoenix’s ashes accumulate
energy for new life, as the bird rises from the ashes rejuvenated with natural
energy.
Energy is an
omnipresent entity which travels through space, time and medium. Lost energy is
just a transfer of the same. Similarly gained energy too, is just the same.
A man, who runs out
of steam, has just transferred all his energy to another subject. And there are
ways to reimburse that energy, accumulating it from other forms which hold them
in their dungeons. And even today many many moons after, the transfer keeps
taking place.
They say partying
hard is a practice for de-stressing. Some psychologists say that the after-burn
of a party plays catalytic in releasing the stressful negative energy.
Negative energy is
powerful and extremely destructive. This affirms that its release can be at
times catastrophic. When such powerful energy is released it leaves the
previous owner weak with fatigue. It accumulates into a raging powerful force,
uncontrollable and destructive, hitting any obstacle on its way like a steam
engine, on full go. But the functional result of this is that the previous
owner is freed from the stressful energy that was raging inside him.
To release this sort
of pent up energy a person needs to reach that saturation point where he can
commit into the act of splitting with it. Sometimes it needs a catalyst to take
you to that high energy point where the pressure cooker finally starts to
whistle. Without that all that energy keeps boiling inside you for a long long
time just below the saturation level, where it is capable of releasing itself.
About a catalyst
which opens you up to releasing old and repulsive energy to make way for new
vibrancy and ardor for more spunk.
