They are good states and do it, wholesomestates are good joy in the wholesome is good.I am interested in not appropriating words that are well understood by communities for 100's of years and taking amateur internet posts about them as truth. Words like "Energy" should be taken as understood from the physics community, although we understand in certain contexts someone else may use that word in other ways. It's the same when it comes to the term "jhana".

And to be clear I think you sharing your opinion and expertise is great, theres just this element of 'leave it to the experts' when we are talking about a sort of bodily understanding that my culture seems to utterly lack that I disagree with.
