Gloria,
I feel really confident that the work I am doing at night is of the Holy
Spirt because of all the events surrounding my agreement and the state of
mind I was in at the time.  I did not have the time or energy to go into the
details and some on the list are not into hearing about the Holy Spirit and
other Christian terms - so I kept it short.  I do thank you and others for
your concern however.

What tests would you recommend, btw.

This is a word that came to my friend (who also has k) during a dream: 
maranatha. Does this word means anything to anyone? She often get weird words 
during energy therapy. Thanks.

Maranatha 
(mah-rah-nah-THAH) 
An Aramaic expression written by the apostle Paul as he concluded his 
first letter to the Corinthians (1Cor. 16:22, KJV). The meaning seems 
to be, "Our Lord do not love him." The fact that Paul used an Aramaic 
expression in addressing the Gentile Christians of Corinth indicates 
that maranatha had become a familiar expression of Christian hope- a 
watchword of the imminent SECOND COMING (b.c.) of the Lord.

Thank you! I looked it up in my Bible, a french version that is common to all 
christian faiths, the TOB, which stands for Traduction Oecumenique de la 
Bible. In the french version, they write simply "maranatha", which is how it 
came to her in her dream, a dream that should come in french since that what 
we speak here. 

I told her to ask questions before she go to bed and that the answers will 
come through her dreams, like I do. She saw ufos twice in her life and they 
were in a formation that looked like the letter M and she wondered about that 
M. Several people saw it, not her only. Maranatha is what she got from her 
dream.

Have you ever pushed that "send" button too fast and wished you could prevent 
that message from reaching its recipient? Well, I've had another lesson today 
teaching me to go slower when reading messages. I was so happy to find an 
explanation to that word that all I could see was your phonetic spelling, 
with all that bunch of h's.

I suppose I should be more patient in every aspect of K. Sometimes I find the 
process cruelly slow.

    Dear Snowbird,

    The word " Maranatha" 
     Is from the "Book of Revelations"
-     It can be found in the back sectiom of any New Testament.

     Here is part of " Maranatha"

     Watch Ye The everfore For Ye Know Not When The Master  of the
     House Cometh, at enew or at midnight or at the cockscrowing,
     or in the morning lest coming suddenly he finds you sleeping.

     And Behold, I ( Jeasus Christ ) Come Quickly, and my reward 
     is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
-     I am the Alpha and Omega, The Beginning and the end.
     The First and the Last.

     What this means, I don't know.
     Biblical scholars have been trying to analize these words for
     2,000 years and haven't been able to agree on it's meaning.

     What I think it means, is that we are in deep doo, doo.

     Jim

Mary:

If you think about matter as being made up of atoms, it is easier to
understand that we are mainly energy.  An atom has it's nucleus and then
electrons dancing around it.  The distance of the electrons from the nucleus
is similar to the distance of the planets from the sun.  Electrons have not
been seen, only their energy paths have been recorded.  They are like waves
of probable energy interactions rather than solid finite structures. 

Now that they have quantum physics, they also know that matter can be broken
into even smaller particles and these are constantly changing.  They dance in
and out of the physicists version of the void, always changing their
appearance/nature.

There are 2 books worth reading on this,  which compare the Eastern idea of
the dance of energy with modern physics.  
they are The Tao of Physics by Fritjuf Capra, and The Dancing Wu Li masters
by Gary Zukav.

I cannot explain about the holes and your sinuses.  But I do know if the
centers are balanced, the sinuses improve.  Also I have had constant sinus
drainage for years because my body is cleansing itself. It is a symptom of
that.  This is lessening with time.

Love Jule

hehe. it's rather simple really. reminds me of some other phrases i've
picked up over time about this and fits nicely:

"this is not the end",
"this is not the beginning of the end",
"this is the end of the beginning".

>     What I think it means, is that we are in deep doo, doo.

heh well man has messed up trhe planet pretty bad. and we show no signs of
letting up. and besides, most of the environmentalists pretty much agree
it's too late anyhow. the old saying "too little, too late".

I think this all has to do with "earth changes" which are due in roughly
1240 days (give or take). which is why i say the meaning is rather simple,
if you look at it this way.
Dan.
There are always possibilities...

can get my hands on.  The Holograpic Universe (Talbot) and Art and Physics
(? can't remember the author) are two of my more recent favorites.  The
movie "Mindwalk" does a great job explaining atoms and electrons.
Unfortunately all it does with the info is push environmentalism, not
spirituality.  I guess environmentalism is the new spirituality for some.
Preached like that ole time religion.

Subject: Kunda=Love; Invitation to post; Energy circuits

Somewhere along the way, I have a note to myself that 
kunda means love.  I don't remember the source of this
note.  I am interested the source of the word.

As the fire of love... the joining of the polarities 
of male and female aspects, this is very fitting.
The love which emerges through our system, cleansing
and destroying old patterns as it goes, till we are
united within and without.

Does anyone have insight about the etymology of kundalini?

*
Also-- at last report there were well over 100 people on
this list.  I would like to invite some of you who might
not have posted before to let us hear from you too.  

What is your understanding of kundalini?

How has it manifested in your life?

What practices (meditation, energy work, etc.) do you follow?  


*
A few people have mentioned the practice of placing the tongue on
the roof of the mouth.  Prior to this list I had not heard of that
practice.  On Friday night I went to a SEN meeting where there was 
a presentation on energy work, and the woman discussed the completing 
of energy circuits which allows the energy to flow more freely through 
the body.

Placing the tongue to the roof of the mouth is apparently one such
method, as are mudras and yoga asanas.  I am only beginning to
intuitively grasp that as the energy flows through the body, there
are ways we can assist a circuit in being completed.  I am very
interested in more information about this whole area.

Can anyone provide some additional information?  Either practices
you know about, and/or the theory of completing energy circuits?

Sometimes I feel so young...

Humbly wishing to learn more,
ori^

Subject: A request

Hi everybody.  This is very new to me so I don't know quite how to ask 
or what to ask for.  My mom is dying, I'm not sure how quickly (i.e., 
days or weeks).  The other night, much to my astonishment, my late 
grandmother told me we had to get my mom's soul ready and that she (my 
grandmother) would be waiting when my mom died.  This is really going 
to knock the socks off my mom because she is a skeptic and has always 
humored me about my spiritual bent.  I confess it pretty well floored 
me, too, being a tyro when it comes to any kind of trans-material 
communication.  But I am trying to comply with what my grandmother says 
in various ways.  My request to you guys is 2-fold:  if any of you are 
connected to the space where my mom will be soon (her name is Neil), 
please help her be comfortable and, for me, send advice on how to deal 
with this among people I love very much but who have a very different 
vision of the universe than I do.

Very, very gratefully and with love,
