Fantasia of the Unconscious

CHAPTER III
11/23

We have again a sympathetic center primal in activity and knowledge, and a corresponding voluntary center.

In the center of the breast, the cardiac plexus acts as the great sympathetic mode of new dynamic activity, new dynamic consciousness.

And near the spine, by the wall of the shoulders, the thoracic ganglion acts as the powerful voluntary center of separateness and power, in the same vertical line as the lumbar ganglion, but horizontally so different.
Now we must change our whole feeling.

We must put off the deep way of understanding which belongs to the lower body of our nature, and transfer ourselves into the upper plane, where being and functioning are different.
At the cardiac plexus, there in the center of the breast, we have now a new great sun of knowledge and being.

Here there is no more of self.
Here there is no longer the dark, exultant knowledge that _I am I._ A change has come.
