    We are now close to looking at the relationship of intent to this onset of recursion/self-awareness, and thus to being able to steer light into the future. When someone is so self-aware, so implosively recursive in the density of the magnetism exuded from their glands, it is as if their are empowered to grab the delicate threads of light moving through the light speed and time barrier. This is because, only in the condition of near perfect embeddedness or recursion, do these velocity modes of light become accessible. Think of a seamstress being suddenly gifted with fine enough fingers to touch the very most gossamer threads of the weft and woof of creation. When intent becomes pure of self aware or self-embedded, the magnetic implosion in the glands, perceived as the psychokinetic rush at the moment of revelation, the density and velocity threads of light pushing through the light and time barrier, are given over to the bending and shaping of their trajectories. Essentially, all of the light bending from the line of energy to the circles we call matter, comes under the control of those whose inner magnetism or spirit has become the most attractive or fractal. Intent has become our name for the shaping which becomes possible when this inner rush of spin, allows us to lean into the flow of time itself.
