I dig that, and remember how much the importance of bowing was focused on in most every martial arts class I took as a kid, regardless of the style or the culture from which it originated.

darkness is just space within the spectrum that we cannot see or chose not to

I love that!

It makes me wonder if matter and spirituality are a similar relationship, thus the final thought describing the same thing.

That certainly aligns with many of the teachings I have come across, which basically place physical reality as one side of the coin, which has consciousness as its other.

Thanks for your thoughts brother!
