Energy Classifications

[Seaker]

It's simpler than that- each name is different because it was named in various languages, in their respective countries.

So, in spite of the different languages, each language has multiple terms for the same energy and the purposes of these energies are interchangeable? Would you say that they are all the same energy, but the intention of the way it is used is what gives a different name? As in classical physics defining work, but work can be whatever we make it like creating art or digging a ditch. Although the activity is different, work is the effort put forward for an end result. Then likewise, all these names for energy are just describing the different applications for the same energy? The energy or the work are used in different ways and because of that they have different names? The energy or work doesn't change; it's the way we use it that changes its name?

So many questions, your post seems confusing to me- I'll try to answer in my own words.

No, each region has names for the energy as to where it's located and what it's supposed to do. Whether it's interchangeable is debatable, and different people will tell you what they believe or know about it.

In physics energy is defined as the ability to make 'something' happen. Moving something that isn't moving, stopping something that was already moving. Physics defines energy in the way it's used also: Potential, kinetic, and is measured in many ways- voltage usually as the baseline way to measure it. When it's moving it's current, and when it's resisting it's...wait for it....resistance.

I don't even understand these questions, and you don't have to memorize whatever the terms may be: That's why Robert likes to call energy energy, and its ways of working it by how it's worked, and the fancy terminology is not important, unless you're going to study a specific discipline that requires you to memorize it.

Would you say that qigong, jing energy is different than energy from the kundalini or are they the same. If energy is energy then there is no difference between electrical energy, potential energy or kinetic energy and these spiritual energies. They are all identical and identical things are interchangeable; otherwise they are not the same. Sorry, but logic always gets in the way of things. I really don't know how to get the bottom of things, unless I use logic. We could skip using logic and try some good old time folklore. I guess a simple answer to my questions is that my questions are not important. That is an answer, but not the one I was expecting. It's possible that metaphysics doesn't examine energy this closely. I may have to ask Stephen Hawkins about these energies. He might know.
