My coworker came to me with an interesting dilemma. He was trying to prepare something for a Taekwondo class (I don’t mock him openly, I have compassion) and was trying to locate a good definition — preferrably with illustration — of the location of the solar plexus. Now this is a term that is bandied about with abandon, and most of us have a middling, hazy idea of where our own solar plexus might be located. Ask someone “where’s your solar plexus?” and most will point somewhere in the center of their chest, vaguely between the nipples and belly-button.
So my friend did what any software engineer would do… he Googled for it. Fair enough, that’s certainly what I would do. Herein comes my challenge to you… find somewhere — anywhere — that has a valid illustration of the anatomical location of the solar plexus that doesn’t also contain reference to chakras, energy flow, personal power centers or any of that other looney new-age nonsense (a thousand pardons to all the new-age looneys… you know I still love you in that centered, mind-body way).
I don’t think such a reference exists. I guess that’s one problem with the Google generation: dilution of information. I mean, it’s about like trying to search for “X-Men porn” or “Elizabethans getting whipped hard” and being directed to my lowly abode which has, at last count, precisely zero occurences of such fare.
Harness the power of your nipple chakra!

I am Jack’s Solar Plexus ColdForged challenged readers to find an image, on the internet, which describes the location of the solar plexus without references…
Congratulations.
There’s something to be said for that kind of persistence. I can only imagine the amount of muttering that occured while searching for this page, “No image….I’ll give ‘em an image…..this one have an image…..Damn, again with the Chakras…..how about this one….nope, still no image….must find image….”

Ha!
No it isn’t…
He’s got you there, man. Course, it’s real easy to say “no, that’s wrong!” without providing a correct one.
Hmmm, don’t mean to trump your chakra there, ByTor, but the illustration seems to be conspicuously absent from that page….
