Hello.

It is nice when things come together, when instead of the
rollercoaster of emotions there is a quietness and focus. There is a
joy, and an awareness, that one can summon from the depths of oneself.
It is an ecstacy, a bliss, and a great excitement. Passion even. It is
literally an eye-opener.

Over perhaps the past month I have seen a gradual increase in this
immediate fullness. The most surprising thing about it that I have
discovered entirely for myself, is that it is /intelligent/!!

The essense of oneself, the consciousness, can be found when there is
joy and when there is acceptance. And true confidence can bring it
also. All the virtues, if one summons them into being one strangely
finds that that which one is summoning is actually aware. In a way, it
has a character, like it is a person, an intelligence, and it is God.
How glorious that happyness can be far more than just an emotion!

It seems possible to become actually closer to God, to be /faced/ with
God, by asserting a godly and virtuous attitude and experience. I was
most surprised to find such an intelligence and compassion lurking
under the stone of heavy emotion.

I suppose it is what it means to see oneself in all places. As one
becomes more whole, the more virtuous and whole aspects of one's
outlook act as portals or windows onto a heavenly intelligence, and it
is /light/, and it is God. The light is actually ingelligent. It is
alive.

Giving love to something, it like opening up a channel right in front
of your eyes, a little peek-hole through which you look at God. It is
the light at the end of the tunnel or the drawing back of curtains.
The more intensely and fully one does this the more one realises that
one is actually unveiling something remarkable, and something which is
staring right back at you. That's the surprising bit - finding
mutuality there. Coming to /meet/ it, to meet life.

By choosing to be compassionate and gentle and understanding and wise
one is choosing to be faced with God. Why on Earth is anyone afraid of
such a thing when it is so purely loving?

I feel that in my own life I have been increasing the degree to which
I have reached out, and the exent to which the ideal has become
manifest in reality and not just in the imagination. All this talk and
contemplation of kundalini and its activities, and of seeing smiling
faces and kind of practical jokes being played on me but in the
greatest and most gentle of humour, it is like a great welcoming. An
extraordinary welcome that certainly gives one a feeling of belonging.

Behind the muck of the face-mask there is an ocean of your true self.
it's such an embrace. By increasing ones awareness and open-mindedness
and summoning a joyous attitude is like the heavens literally coming
down out of the sky. If mankind does this as a whole it is going to
become reality. Just as an unveiling, the beautiful heaven is just
waiting to burst forth, not to teach us a single thing but to meet us
as it. To visualise it, to be in the midst of God on Earth, one feels
a tremendous warming in the heart. It is miraculous!

For most of my life there has been an element of dislike in having to
be happy. It has been often forced and often falsified. The whole
issue of false smiles and so on. I never imagined it might be possible
for there to be a worthwhileness to the smile, for one to /want/ to do
it, not that it indicates a rise above the mark but because it makes
one realise one is only ever coming up from below. A reason to be
happy, a great attraction towards it. God is so attractive I feel I
cannot resist! There's something almost sexual about it. :)

I hadn't really imagined, that I could have a personal relationship
with God.

--
Paul.

Harsha,
Your words make more sense than anything, yet they swerve attention from
kundalini to Self, which apparently is seen to be more dangerous.

I have joined a discussion group here in Halifax, Nova Scotia. People
are invited to talk about whatever they wish. And they start-off adamant
about their beliefs and experiences with Kundalini, Christianity, Swami
this or that, Reincarnation, Vibrations, Buddhism, you name it. All that
stuff is fine. The only thing the leaders of the group serve to do is
bring discussion inward, to the Self or the I Am. They do it in a way
such that you hardly know it is being done.

Because of the easy-going nature of the group, and because the dynamics
of it turn out to be a form of relaxation or stress reduction, members
return weekly and are actually willing to approach the Self or I Am.

But almost without exception there is expression of fear, apprehension,
doubt, in regard to what group members think will have to be given-up en
route to a communion with or an understanding of the Self or I Am.
(Those who are fearless progress quickly, it is said.)

The leaders alleviate fear or apprehension simply by being who they are:
friends, successes in their homes and careers, people you hang-out with.
That demonstration makes the whole spiritual journey seem not only safe
but worthwhile (which many had intuited all along.)

So, Harsha, it has become clear to me that while there is great support
in this list for Kundalini, because many have known and studied it and
have incorporated it into their lives -- because it is the Kundalini
List! -- the same support for attentiveness to the Self or I Am is not
so evident. Perhaps some list members, while fully knowing of the Self,
have no need to discuss it; perhaps others have yet to see how that
quality of attention becomes integrated into life.

So my question for you -- or anyone -- is "We have some idea of how
Kundalini can play itself out in everyday life; how so with knowledge of
the Self?"

That is what people want to know. How is it going to help them become
sexier, richer, slimmer, healthier? It sounds like selling-out, but, if
I have come to know you at all, what you want to communicate is not
merely a pleasant reading or a few nice thoughts. You want to get down
with The Self like they're getting down with Kundalini. So do I.

If this is not the place to discuss it, and others are interested,
perhaps we can take it to a newsgroup.

Always,
Jerry

I understand what tg is trying to do, do not take me wrong on any of my post I
understand what she is doing is trying o give support to seek some advice. I
have been seeking some of the advice also, I have been, and am seeing a
therapist who I saw last year. I thought about other medical help, but that is
the part that you would not understand, since I have not shared what I went
through with medical help before. I will just say this, what happen with all
that has left deep scares in me, and a deep fear, and I have to get past it,
but dealing with right now is to large for me.

>I'm not trying to be mean to you here, but can you see how when someone
listens >and empathizes with you and then gives you some direction towards
helping >yourself, then you don't do anything to get that help, what else can
one think but >that you do not *really* want the help you seek?

I know you are not trying to be mean, I will say some things that you have
said have hit me the wrong way, but I must look at differently, from your
point of view. I have been doing many things to help myself, yes I may not
share with the list, maybe I should so people would understand more, but I
have not, do not feel comfortable with sharing. I want more help than you
know, but it is hard when you feel lost and not sure about anything. Can you
try one thing for me, just try to see it also from my point of view.

I have been listening, I have been listening to many people. I know if I want
help, I must do it, I have always known that.

I was on pain medication for sometime after my knee surgery. I have got a
complete physical recently, and get many I have once a month, for my skiing.
So far all of my physicals have been okay.

I have always been one who would pull myself out of problems, fears, and my
struggling, but I have not been able to recently, it has been horrible. I do
feel because of that I deserve to die.

I feel like I am going through exactly what you did. I am just going to say
this, some of the post have hit me really hard, and yes it hurts. I have tried
not let is devastate me, or push my back farther in my struggle. It has been
hard not to let that happen, but all I have been trying to do is see this from
others point of view, and understand where they are coming form, it helps
some, but not really. I have to say those post have made me think, and one
thing it has brought across my mind, is why did I finally open up to people,
and large group of people, cause right now, it seems like its hurting more,
maybe I should just put up my wall again. I am not sure now at all, I am
confused, and feel like I am saying more than I would like.

Love,
Kristin

I've been trying to post from my yahoo mail account and it just doesn't work,
so I'll post from here. : ) This is Pamie59 by the way.

Jenny, I enjoyed your post and understand completely. Thank you for sharing
that.

I would like to point out though that we don't have the entire picture. Tg had
stated that she and others have been having private conversations with
Kristen. We don't know the details of those conversations. I certainly respect
tg for having respect for Kristen and not posting those details in a public
forum. It can be hard to understand when you don't have the entire picture
though. So just keep in mind that we don't. :) I would only add that in
respect to all of Tg's posts since I've been here , which have shown great
insight and she's shown herself to be very compassionate, her feelings must be
valid.

Peace
Pam

I know you do not know the whole picture, and I do not except you to unless I

I do not want to share everything with the whole list, for many reason, but
the most important one is I am not comfortable with sharing with everyone on
the list. So I do not except you to play 20 questions or anything regarding
that. I feel comfortable opening up to some but not all. I know tg is a
compassionate person, I am ant saying she is not.

Dear Paul,

In reading your long posts I see that you often answer your own
questions. I would suggest substituting the word "I" every time you have
used the word "you" or "myself" for "oneself". It may make things
clearer for you to see.

Snip
  
You write:

   I wonder if, when unhappy, it would be good therapy to
   deliberately
   seek to destroy oneself, in a constructure manner. Of course
   getting
   the wrong end of the stick would turn out as suicide, but
   forcing
   yourself to be happy about self-termination could be quite
   liberating.

When people are unhappy its because their self, their slavery to ideas
and belief systems is being deconstructed...usually by circumstances,
environment, and the people around them. Thats why they are unhappy...so
they search for things to justify their belief system and make
themselves happy again. I do/did that.

You write:
   The idea of piling on the pressure when one is vulnerable does
   not
   sound attractive, but it only becomes additional pressure if you
   reject its healing property. I wonder if someday I'll stand up
   and
   directly challenge God and the whole universe to `come on then',
   to
   throw everything it has at me, to strike me down and give me
   everything it has got - which doesn't mean taking away my
   freedom or
   happyness - and for there to be a wonderful immortal joy.

So...You make bargains with the Universe now.... :))

It is interesting to me that you write in terms of being taken by force
and doing violence to your self. It amazes me that many people speak of
the path of understanding the true essence of who they are in this way.

Does this point to a belief of the universe as a violent and unsafe
place or only a projection of what we/I think it to be? Hmmm...I would
rather think the Universe would overwhelm me with love, beauty, and
peace.

Actually, I dont really think the Universe/Spirit cares one way or
another. I think I can only receive thru the window/paradigm/template
that I have created to perceive Spirit...in other words...whatever I
receive only validates my belief system.

If I dont like what I am perceiving... I change my point of view.

Love,
Susan

 I have been posting some things privatly. I am not trying to pester everyone.
I feel more like everyone is digging in to me, and some things I do not want
to share. I am sorry if it seems like i am pestering, thats not what I
amtrying to do.
 
 Be on confused,
 Kristin

Funny....it seems like this is getting to be an angry thread.

I think that is important to recognize. Depression (of not the chemical
imbalance sort) is the end result of unexpressed anger and resentment.

I think Kristin has every reason to be angry...if she chooses to feel
so. Anger is a powerful fire that helps to cleanse the soul and gives a
great release of energy that otherwise turns inward and eats away like a
cancer.

Therapist are not often a help for this if they are not trained in anger
release. Also, if a person is not getting better with a therapist's
help...might be time to get a new therapist.

Clients tend to choose therapists they feel comfortable with. Which
often means they can hide out in a therapist's 'blind spot'...i.e. if
your therapist has a problem with anger, it may be forever and a day
before a person gets to work on it because a therapist will never see it
to be so.

And it is possible to move quickly through the more dramatic portions of
this problem. K will help by intensifying the energy and feelings.
Hold on... for the light at the end of the tunnel is not a train.

It will get better if you want it to...but nothing seems to operate on
the time schedule we/I want it to...such is life.

When the feelings and energy get intense I just remember one of my
favorite mantras...."my heart beats with the peace of God".

Many blessings,
Susan
