Every matter has energy. There is magnetism in every matter. In every matter there is a laser beam. Energy assumes varied forms in matter. Here is a hand. We call it a hand with life. We think the table is lifeless matter. But if you thump the lifeless table, you are getting pain in the hand. From where do you get the pain? Have you thumped the table or has the table beaten you? When you thumped the table, you do not know whether it suffered any pain. When you feel the pain, it means that you have been beaten by the table. You have not hit the table. The table has hit you. We must understand this truth in the first instance. (DTB Vol.5, p. 12)
