The Line

Shock goes back and forth: danger. But one loses absolutely nothing, only there are dealings.

Interpretation

Here it is not only a one-time shock, but a repeated one, that allows no time to breathe. But nevertheless the shock brings no loss, since one is intent on holding oneself at the center of the movement and thereby is freed from the fate of being thrown defenselessly back and forth.
