Hi Jim,

Not understanding you would be hard... You talk directly from your soul,
from your heart. No filters or structures to try to hide who you are. A
breath of fresh air in my day. A lesson of humility and listening and
sharing. Thank you, for your post, from the deepest in me.

Love

Antoine

Dear Ruth:

Are your doctrines - what you are teaching in every post - not debatable in
this forum?

Doctrine means teaching. Virtually all discussion of topics related to K
involves religious teaching of some kind on some level. Are you having
trouble tolerating disagreement with your sacred doctrines?

Without making a direct attempt for sure. The question still arises whether
the kundalini quietly awakens anyway. Ditto for Dzogchen (are you listening
Janpa?)

Ramana Maharshi is an interesting case. He describes his ``amrita nadi'' at
the heart to the sahasra - and he appears to have felt that his subtle
anatomy was at least coincidental with his realization. The classical
upanishads make many references to the subtle anatomy is well.

There is a recorded lecture with Swami Muktananda in which someone asks ``
if Ramana Maharshi didn't have kriyas and all this kundalini stuff why do
they?'' Muktananda apparently gets mad and notes that he personally knew
that Ramana Maharshi did have manifestations of kundalini. I think it is
clear from his journals that even the ``jnani'' Krishnamurti did as well.

One of the things I'd still ask you to clarify is what you mean by jnana
yoga. I think that would help me to understand some of your statements.
It's not that I'm trying to pigeonhole you - it's that the term ``jnana
yoga'' is almost an oxymoron to me.

One would think that the great realized masters would at least agree among
theirselves - but they do not. I think that this is one of the reasons
there is so little consistency and progress is the exposition of the
spiritual path. In other words, the exposition of the spiritual path has
probably degraded in the last 300 years rather than improved.

Thanks for the interesting discussion and may all sentient beings find

Please translate...not sure I know what you are asking here.

Well yes.. but the meaning of 'doctrine' I meant was
per the Oxford English..."That which is taught or laid down as true
concerning a particular subject or department of knowledge, as religion,
politics etc."

  Virtually all discussion of topics related to K
> involves religious teaching of some kind on some level.

I think you will make many nervous with your declaration.
I do not see that. If it is about K. it is universal. Can you say the
acting of sleeping or defecating has to do with a religion? I see K. as
an almost biological facet of the human species... if the religious dogma
has gotten hold of it and shrouded it in secrecy, or if the relgions claim
it as their own it still does not make it the domain of religion. Thank
God !
Such discussions do center around some religions, but I think what
you are confused about is what religion is.."A state of life bound by
monastic vows...a particular monastic or religious order or rule...action
or conduct indicatina belief in, reverence for, and desire to please a
divine ruling power; the exercise or practice or rites or observances
implying this..."

Dear Don...Beloved K. is no more about
religious teaching than is any other aspect of human experience.
If you are saying that Hinduism is a religion, I would also hesitate to
jump into this one.. since I believe it is a philosophy.

I am having no trouble with tolerating disagreement about sacred
doctrines, since I have few and these I do not share with the list. I am
having trouble with your tone and attitude on the other hand.
I hope that the Mercury retrograde can reverse this somewhat.

Definitions aside, I think what Don is referring to when
he says :

 >Virtually all discussion of topics related to K
 >involves religious teaching of some kind on some
 >level.

is just that, in interpreting K. experiences, many on the
list make philosophical assumptions which fall into the
domain of religious teachings. The most oft-occurring
example would be the assumption of reincarnation (the
talk of "karma" usually refers to its effects from one
incarnation to the next, to be non-technical, vague and
kinda simplistic about it). Reincarnation as it is usually
understood is not compatible with Christian doctrine,
so what Ruth would probably see as just a matter of
philosophy would to Don (or me) be a matter of doctrine.

K. itself is not a matter of doctrine, it is more properly a
matter of our personal experiences. However, the way
K. experiences are interpreted will be through our own
"filters" of religious belief, metaphysical philosophy,
call it what you will (the overlap between religion and
philosophy is so great that, though I spoke of them as
separate above, I really believe that it is impossible to
fully separate them). Discussion of K. will thus usually
be greatly influenced by doctrine/teaching/beliefs.

My friend said she feels like she is treading water in the twilight

irrational, profound, pendulous, embracing, insidious despair. Somehow
in between bouts of this despair I can briefly recognise my "normal"

Dear K Friends,

And here is a comment that I made of this post on that
other mailing list.

>The coming flood of celestial fire represents a very real phenomenon
>that will have important implications for every aspect of our lives.
>To properly understand this phenomenon and its implications, we need

>matter.

I see this as a very key part of our collective process that I've
often talked about, although there are two things I'd disagree with:

>In a subtle fusion reaction, on the other hand, the atomic nucleus
>captures subtle particles, each of which has a mass that is trillions
>of times less than that of an electron. These captured subtle particles
>then are incorporated into the internal structure of the nucleus, which

Rather than looking at it as subtle particles, etc....It's much simpler
(not to mention easier to reconcile with orthodox science) to simply
look at this subtle energy flow as a time reverse anti-entropic thermal
energy flow in what physicists would call momentum-space....there are
no particles involved other than the ones our universe is already made
of....just a flow of energy that by being contrary to our existing
timeline opens up the possibility for a 2nd dimension of time to start
unfolding (in our continuum).

I feel this technology bit is overrated with regards to this.....Yes maybe
someday we will invent machines that can handle this kind of thing, but I
suspect that the main flow will be through our flesh....through the cells of
our bodies....and yes, this energy does cook until tender....and then some.

As I see it, technology has it's purpose, just not in this area. Think
about it, how does one go about constructing a machine that is localized
in momentum-space.....very difficult problem.

I am not a student of any of the realized masters, any other master,
philosophy or religious path. I AM a student of Kundalini's impact on
my physical, spiritual, mental and emotional being.

It is my belief that no one person, philosophy or religion has all the
answers to the questions of the spiritual. I've got my little piece of
the jigsaw and may be able to understand how and where I fit into the
big picture but it doesn't mean I can see the big picture.

If the "great realized masters cannot agree amongst themselves" is this
not just confirmation that they, like us, don't have all the answers.
That they only have their piece of the jigsaw to relate to?

I have felt in recent times that the only true and valid teacher is the
inner teacher or highest self. When we teach others our truth aren't we
denying them the opportunity to seek out their truth?

Perhaps like the holographic model, each individual reality is whole and
complete within itself regardless of how it relates to another. As it
shifts and changes (as is wont to do) it still remains whole and
complete.

Maybe the big picture is beyond us all (realized masters included)?

Since I started practicing yoga during the summer, I've had
increasing moments where parts of my body shake spontaneously
as the energy begins to flow. So far it has mostly been during
the practice of yoga or meditation.

The last few weeks as I've been undergoing some kinda major
shifting/transformation, the energy shakes have increased in
frequency.

Last night I had a massage, and this morning a chiropractic
adjustment... and all day today, the shaking has been steadily
with me, in spite of no meditating or yoga since yesterday morning.
I often feel I walk around all day in a meditative state anyway...
it is very easy for me to shift my focus and be into a deepened
state of consciousness.

I am able to still the shaking when I need to-- when I'm walking
around at work for example, but as soon as I'm back in a quiet
private place the shaking starts again. It has never been this
steady before. It kind of took me by surprise.

>From what I've read and heard, it seems that this can be part of
the process. I know ultimately that I need to listen to my own body
wisdom to allow the energy to find a way through. On the one hand it
seems a sign of progress... that something is really moving.
On the other hand, I'm not sure it is necessary.

I'm wondering what some of the collective wisdom is regarding how
best to work with this process. Also interested in the personal
experiences of others...

Message-ID: <971204000050_1183603078ATnospammrin84.mail.aol.com>

I thought last June when I started having cosmic orgasms of rainbow light
that after a quick painful then blissful movement thoughtout my chakras to
the crown in five minutes, that my channels were clearing. I have been
multi-orgasmic for years, so all this has been a delight--now turned
nightmare! My spiritual therapist says I have K,
but I think I might have a deep level of alternative consciousness from
meditation that Jack Kornfield says occurs in Buddhist meditation. I
alternate between flowing of the heart to the universe, bliss and suicidal
depression. I am terrified becasue my spiritual therapist said that I had a
sado-masochistic relationship with my meditation teacher, not my fault--and
that my teacher's god experiences are psychotic--the teacher who was in over
her head said she would be my friend--and was lovely two weeks ago and said
she would meditate with me again--and is now not returning my phone
calls--ITherapist said that I have acute trauma from teacher and K process at
same time--I want to go back to teaching at the University--I can't bear the
isolation and friends not understanding--and boyfriend frightened after
knowing me for 9 years and having seen everything--I am in panic and
semi-suicidal--have no family and close friends to trust--Meditation teacher
told me to detach from the world and let ego die--I am desperate-
conflicted-confused and need hope, and light and stabillity--
and a teacher with higher consciousness then mine--my meditation teacher said
I was self-realized but not enlightened--that I knew god--but I can't control
my mood swings and was very social with phone ringing and lots of interesting
work--and have no family or anyone who takes me seriously except the
psychological pathologizers--
need hope and light and clarity--are any of you in New York that I could
speak to?
I need an enlightened master in meditation to mirror my Love and calm me--
please help
terribly confused, getting to many conflicting and frightening pieces of
advice from my alleged support system--but I can't go back--once this deeply
on spiritual path--
need tender support and clarity--my love flows and flows and not
returned--the intensity frightens my friends--
please help, I have courage, have been writing theatre reviews for Web--
      but need to fulfill Dharma and help others--but have lost
my joy and stability--
Therapist says not to do much--but I am happiest with fun activities, not
deep spiritual and psychological work at this moment--and can't see the light
except in moments of bliss--but that's experience not true transformation--go
into Unity space from time to time--relief--but erractic--
please help--
