It may be an attribute of one kind of cultural upbringing to instill
the belief that a person "is the energy" be it love, vitality,
creativity etc. This might conduce to fierce loyalties on display to
the very idea of that identity. It may also blind a person so
instilled with a free and flexible perception of the world around him/
her. Among cultures that shy away from such identifications, prizing
the non-identification with energy in favor of a watchful
sensuousness, a self-abnegating from all roles but that of the
witness, there may be a corresponding tendency to lose the moral
compass, a rudderless if vibrant perception.
