Symbolically, when we observe the environment, we encounter the complex issues of trauma dynamics that unravel in the duality of destruction versus healing, defined through a transformative force constantly seeking problem-solving mechanisms to achieve an equilibrium. These dynamics sought nothing but a permanent flow. But if we reduce the environment in its broader sense to regenerative evolutionary dynamics, we must abandon its potential algorithmic nature and the profound directions beyond human understanding of consciousness. Conversely, transposing the flow of life to a multidimensional discourse provides us with a bit more “space”. It opens numerous possibilities for exploring deeper notions of connectivity, entanglements, and interrelatedness. It allows us to re-imagine multiple realities and bends the paradigm of “truth” as a central concept around which the highest postulates of known existence orbit. This is slippery, dangerous, and uncomfortable. Where is the point of equilibrium in this entropy of realities? Can the truth truly be polyphonic? Fortunately, the energy never lies. It can be reduced, weakened, agitated, or corrupted, but it still magically seems to “record” all its forms. The strength of overall evolution relies on this mysterious power of memory that is nowhere to be found, yet it is obvious that it exists. We still need to find the mantra to lead us across the void of oblivion, liberate us from the shackles of limited perception, and bring us closer to understanding the meaning of evolution. Nature's intelligence appears to be deeply poetic, even when it is cruel and gruesome. It is responsive, adaptable, systematic, all-pervading, and self-regulating. Its mysterious “communication” skills entice us to explore biophilia within ourselves, inviting us to search for long-dormant neural circuits and extend our sensorial abilities into the environment. One of the fundamentals of modern physics states that the presence of mass causes spacetime to warp or bend. Countless curvatures define the very presence of a body, which is never at rest. The vibrational persistence of the all-pervading Nature and the inexorable patternization of frequency lock the body and spacetime in a definite correlation of unique trembling. Is it incorrect to claim that everything is nested within its environment, which interacts with sensitive cell structures in the body? Is it incorrect to claim that the mind expands into the environment? Is it incorrect to claim that the trauma of the body extends into the environment and vice versa? The curvature of spacetime is not easy to detect, but it is undeniably present. Can it be sensed? Does it have somewhat holographic spores? Do we interact through them? Is the infinite diversity conditioned by this extended body-mind-environment situation? When bodies collide or fissures occur, energy transforms, spacetime’s curvatures saturate, and the mass could find itself on the brink of gravitational collapse. Strangely, in astronomy, a collapse sometimes brings equilibrium. The fissure, the wound, and the trauma can never be experienced twice in the same way. They permanently hold their unique imprint in the body as well as in their dedicated curvatures of spacetime. Perhaps this is a good reason to establish a theory of wound parallax, and adhere to the culture of sensing, with ears placed all over our skin, with auric eyes wide-open, rooted in the energy of deep compassion and entanglement with each other, and the environment; sensing-listening with the means of our deepest intuition.
