Osmosis: “A reciprocal process in which liquids of different density seeks a balance by crossing a permeable membrane“.
The human being is part of a global tissue which is in continuous reciprocal influence. The individual is defined and separated merely by a fine and permeable membrane through which the flow of existence passes. Everyone has a free choice over the degree of permeability of his membrane – the more it contracts, the more agitation and violence; the more it opens, the more life flows and expands – but through osmosis, the whole is affected.
