Gate 29 is the Sacral gate of commitment — the ability to say yes with your whole body and then follow through. The danger is saying yes to everything. The Sacral is designed to respond selectively, and this gate's power depends on the selectivity. Every real yes costs a piece of the total energy budget. Choose carefully and the commitment is inexhaustible. Say yes indiscriminately and burnout is guaranteed.
