Gospel Koan 70.1

Least Resistance

Koan 70.1

Every being: 'action to be' is karma: 'work', energy transforming power: 'ability' in want to travel easily: the path of least resistance.

Summary Exposition

The central mechanism is the identification of being: 'action to be' itself as a form of karma: 'work' that transmutes potential ability into kinetic energy, guided by a fundamental ontological preference for the path of least resistance. A single, potent example is a river carving a canyon; its very being is the work of flowing, which consistently transforms its gravitational potential into the kinetic energy that erodes the easiest route downward. The implication is that being is not a static state but a dynamic, energetic process of perpetual transformation, where all action is an efficient conversion of power directed along the line of least effort, redefining inertia as active, purposeful work.
