It [the psychic life-energy] means the life-energy which comes from within and is in consonance with the psychic being – it is the energy of the true vital being, but in the ordinary ignorant vital it is deformed into desire.

Or you have to bring the psychic in front, and the psychic will purify and psychicise the vital and then you will have the true vital energy.
