The area of subtlest engagement, the link between inner and outer experiencing, is the gaze.
Each of the Eight Pieces of Silk Brocade movements sets the framework for engaging with a distinctive energetic pattern. The area of subtlest engagement, the link between inner and outer experiencing, is the gaze. As you practice your Brocade exercises be aware of and experience your gaze. Feel your gaze as if it were an organ. Notice the distinctive quality of energetic exchange that is expressed in your gaze in each of the eight brocade movements.
