In all likelihood, our ancestors first stood upright in order to survey the savanna into which they had ventured from the relative safety of the forest. Standing up allowed them to take stock of the horizon, all 360 degrees of it. This image holds today. Most of us lean forwards at least a little, engrossed in our fantasies, ambitions & agonies - the safety of self. Standing & moving properly vertical (with the sacrum under the sternum) puts us terrifyingly in the whole world - our hearts lift and spill to that horizon. Only when there is the possibility of this freedom from self do we have the responsibility of spirit.
