The X Energy

Mana is the X factor. It’s the X energy. So this podcast is about Mana. So it’s about energy. It’s about what the Chinese, ancient Chinese culture called Ch’i. That is called Ki in ancient Japanese culture. In Hindu, ancient Indian culture, it’s called Prana. In Hebrew culture, we talk about Ruach. These are all equivalent to Mana. Teleama, Libido. Freud talked about Libido, Synchronicity. Nous, Vis Medicatrix Naturae, in Hippocrates. Aristotle spoke of the Formative Cause. Erasistratus spoke about Pneuma. Christians talk about the Holy Spirit. In Germanic culture, we use the term Woden. Our Wednesday is even named for this.

Mana is not an arbitrary term. It is the concept that every major civilisation has independently named for the subtle energy that animates human experience. Mana is the central concept bridging Disinfolklore and Finding Manuland.
