In the new alchemy, we have a similar kind of way of thinking. Our internal space includes our intuitions, our thoughts, our senses and our feelings, and from these we construct or build a picture of the outside world.

From our senses and our feelings, we experience energy, and from our intuitions and our feelings, we experience motion.

God is not interested in what you think you should be or feel. He is not interested in the narrative you construct for yourself, or that others construct for you.
