There are a collection of issues that could contribute to the sinus
problems. Here are just a few:
1) The first is K can cause changes in your body so it could produce
alergies where none existed before.
2) There is a point just below the third eye, aka Ajna Chakra. This point
below Ajna is described as "hard as a diamond". It has to be broken through
by K before K can get to Ajna (assuming Susumna or related rising, others
would be temp risings and would not lead to enlightenment or need to burst
through this blockage).
This is not usually an easy process. For some people it can take a while. If
they don't do practices to break through some people don't ever get through
it. All of that came from my teacher (and my own experience clearly confirms
parts of it). His source was his teacher and Sanskrit texts (I think some of
it is one of Avalon/Woodriffe's books in English but he does a bad job on
the commentary to explain it) My conjecture is if someone were at that block
point and K was pushing and hitting and trying to get through the high
energy level there could put the sinuses in hyperdrive.
3) This is the one you'd hope for: It is cleaning out brain centers.
Once K gets to the top of Ajna, a point called the Makra Point (not sure of
the spelling.. Makara???), it has to make a decision. It can continue
immediately toward Bindhu (top of head) the quickest way to enlightenment,
it can take a different nadi and go to Hrit (a chakra to the left of the
heart chakra) to rest awhile, or it can begin to clean out the brain centers
in prep to go on to Bindhu after cleaning out the brain.
There are sections in the brain that correspond to the 6 chakras. These need
to be cleaned sooner or later. There are real advantages to the individual
and those they come in contact with if they are cleaned **before** going on
to Bindhu. One of the things that comes near or after reaching Bindhu is the
releasing of Samskaras, patterns, behaviors, sometimes memories, etc. from
past lives. Most of us have at least some bad shit there, along with a lot
of good stuff, that we've collected over several lifetimes.
If the brain centers are clean we can handle the Samskaras much better than
if they aren't. I've seen someone who didn't clean out much first, it was
the strongest personality shift I remember seeing in one person. She was
nice before and a queen-hell B*tch afterward. After a few years she's OK to
be around but I lost a very dear friend when the woman she was disappeared.
During that cleaning there are toxins released. Obviously energy body
toxins. But the physical corresponds to the spiriutal & energy bodies, hence
there will be toxins released in the physical during the cleansing. If
someone, this lifetime, has had a life of "bad food" (lots of junk,
non-life-giving food), drugs (booze, grass, etc.),.... well you get the
idea, there will be a lot of real physical toxins to get rid of. The sinuses
are there to protect the body and to remove waste from that area of the body
so they will be working hard.
This will continue until the job is done, the toxin clearing. It is like
having a baby, once it starts it starts and it continues until finished. But
there is no real C-section option, you have to go through it. You can do
things to make it easier on yourself and speed it along (meditation, diet,
prayers, exercise, asanas (yoga postures), cleansings (like neti neti), and
a lot of other things. These are like the breathing techniques to make
delivery of a child easier on the mother, but she still has to go through
the childbirth process.
The exact combination of tools is unique to the individual, one of several
reasons traditionally a teacher was sought, he/she was expected to know
which combination to use for a given individual. Some are universally
beneficial (more so to some than to others) or at least cause no harm.
Others can cause harm to some people while helping others. For example I had
a posture I did for years. It helped me but was totally wrong for my best
friends who had physical and psychological constitutions very different from
mine. These tools can be changed along the way, needed at some points not
needed and even if not harmful really at least more wasteful and
anti-productive at others.
There are other channels other than Susumna and those that lie within it.
(Susumna is like the outer layer of a coaxial cable, other channels are
inside it) They can cause problems with sinuses too but those should have
been appearing long before the sinus problems if that were the case. They
can get K to the brain centers but it won't stay, it goes home at night.
As to your question about other charas, yes there are a number of other
points in that area but most come after Ajna, not before, and aren't usually
nearly as difficult as getting into Ajna and clearing the brain centers.
As an aside:
It is said to be much much easier for a woman to get solidly into the heart
chakra, and even through it, than it is for a man. But given reaching heart,
above heart the progress is said to be much easier for the man. Meaning it
is easier for a man to get into Ajna, if he gets that far, than it is for a
woman at that blockage below it. Not a sexist concept, just part of that
difference in male and female like upper body strength and ability to deal
with pain, etc. (Of course these are generalities and averages and won't
hold for each individual.)
Namaste,
Joe
