Isn’t a mathematical equation just a good story with a correct ending? Science is never wrong.

More on fire: from my morning meditations:
We have seen that the Tantras recommended sexual intercourse with the chaodali. Now, as well as aiming to decondition, this sort of recommendation would sometimes also have been referring to certain forms of yogic practice. Here, the word chaodali is not referring to a woman at all. In this context, chaodali can be translated as ‘the fiery one’ and, simply stated, refers to the vital energy that must be contacted and incorporated into our practice. It parallels the better known kundalini.
