What you are in essence is self-shining, pure intelligence. The very idea of shining implies a movement. Movement is energy. I call it 'pure intelligence energy'. It is shining through your eyes.

This book is an exquisite fruit of eight years of meticulous editing and curation of countless talks, attempting to minimise repetitions but aiming at keeping 'the authentic feel' of the room.
