Channel 10-20: The Channel of Awakening
This channel is about being fully yourself in the moment: a commitment to who you are, rather than to some goal you would first have to reach. You may find it hard to put up with dishonesty and injustice; you expect openness and ethical conduct. Being an example is part of the theme: someone who is authentic can encourage others to show themselves too and to live their own integrity. You are often barely aware of this role yourself, because it comes from your being and not from a concept. Criticism of what you say can feel like a personal attack.
The two gates
Gate 10: The Gate of the Behavior of the Self
Gate 10 is about the behavior of the self, meaning how you move through life and express yourself along the way.
Gate 20: The Gate of the Now
Being fully in the present moment, in the now: that is what Gate 20 stands for.
The two centers
When this channel is defined, both centers are defined.
G Center
Your identity and direction stay steady, even when your surroundings change.
Throat Center
The way you express yourself is consistent, and how it sounds depends on what your Throat is connected to.
