He was driven away, I think in fear over my healing abilities. When I gave him energy, he fell asleep mid-sentence. Grieving, I turned to my higher power, and experienced what I heard described years later on late night P.B.S.T.V. by a Tibetan Lama as 'the opening of enlightenment.' I shall never forget the unconditional love and acceptance from my Higher self and guardian Angels, so much that even though - my body was vibrating and feeling filled with light streach myself though I might, I was only able to take in a tiny portion of that incredible love. And the bumpy years after, solitaire, not understanding fully what was happening to me, and really only wanting to crawl back into the light, like a womb. The light, of course, refused to be a crutch. I would try to crawl back, and get close, and it would boot me out into the world for another tough reality lesson. Then unexpectedly envelope me the power of beauty making me weep. These forces sculpting me into a new shape the unfolding of a life potential that I'd scarcely dreamt. But I had to learn that all my ugly bits and hard history had purpose. (ref. my website http://www.domin8rex.com/serpent) What I have learned lately, is that I am much older, far more powerful and more widely travelled, than all my previous past life journeys had revealed. I am here by choice, for the millennium. The Portal is opening. There is work to do! But it seems the more I go with the flow and follow my vision, the faster the current carries me. the pace of my river these days is such I feel if I dare to fight the process, I would smash on the rapids. New strangeness comes so quickly it has become almost normal, cosmic surprise parties everywhere. The journey continues.

Barrett, Ph.D.) Subject: k, my hearing aids & my pager I got a new set of hearing aids around the same time as my opening. I cannot seem to keep them in working order, the right or left one is always back at the factory being repaired. When my pager also started going kablooey I began to wonder if k has an effect on electronic devices. In the past I've had the not uncommon experience of blowing every lightbulb I turned on within a certain period. The weirdest development is: I wear my pager on my waistband, set to vibration mode because the alarm is so shrieking it takes a year off my life every time I get a page; now that exact spot on my body buzzes on its own, whether I'm wearing the pager or not, usually waking me from a deep sleep. Has anyone a clue of what is going on here?!

Just as we affect the male / female in our lives with our energies blasting, so too I suspect we affect our children. I notice distinct differences in one of mine when the energies are particularly high in me. He becomes, restless, hyper sensitive, has strange dreams, and sometimes seems to 'blank out'.

Often when I drive down the street I find the street lights going off just as I move under them. At first I thought it was caused from my headlights or the time of day but when I have someone in the car with me they always comment on the phenomenon. Only one other person that I know in my area experiences this same thing and they are also going through a K awakening. I also have trouble with my kitchen appliances. At times when the K energy is most intense, I can't get my microwave to turn on. If my kids happen to be visiting me I leave the room and have them turn it on. I have also had trouble with the lights in my house. Sometimes they seem to temporally short out. My computer and TV also seem to short out for no apparent reason. I thought for a while that my imagination was playing tricks on me concerning all this malfunction but after a while I realized there was a definate pattern. I have also found that since my awakening I have become very sensitive to electrical magnetic radiation. I feel depleted when I am around florescent lighting or the excessive use of any electrical appliances. I have a special screen over the monitor on my computer to cut down on the electrical magnetic radiation but still have to limit my usage. The TV also has become a problem. Often it weird things. When it does work it seems to be more of an irritant than anything else. I have also noticed that my hair drives my crazy. At times it feels like it is standing on end. I have long hair and frequently get the urge to shave my head but being somewhat vain, I just wear it up. I now understand why yogi's wear turbins and others do shave their heads. Sometimes I feel like getting my electricity shut off. Sometimes I'm not sure it's worth the constant irritation. So you are not alone. Hope this helps.

Hello Holly and list, This is an area not unfamiliar to me though I honestly had never thought to call it an effect of kundalini... I simply thought of it as my energy spiking. I noticed it most often when I was working online and my modem would drop me at the most interesting times. Usually when the energy was high, and inevitably (to tie in with the sexual thread) when there was definite sexual energy flowing, whether overtly expressed or not. My modem cut out at such "coincidental" times so frequently, that the connection became clear very quickly. For a certain period of time my modem seemed to be very sensitive to my energy states and I even went in search of some crystals to place on and around my computer in an attempt to absorb and/or reflect the energy. Now that I think back, it was a time when what might be called my kundalini seemed to be awakening in a major way, although... I thought of it as working with energy. The experiences of many on the list seem so similar and familiar to me that I think what I have called energy is the same as what others have called kundalini. I've been in a much quieter period of energy activity, and not surprisingly my modem has been very well behaved lately :) Love to all, ori^ P.S. Although isn't it curious... that as I finished typing this email, my modem had quit again and I couldn't send this till I dialed in again later. hmmmm - ****** * ori^ * * oriATNOSPAMeskimo.com * * http://www.eskimo.com/~ori/ori.html * ****** 11 Date: Fri, 27 Sep 1996 From: Jari Vanha-Eskola Subject: How to control side-effects of K ? Hi! I've been a lurker for a couple of weeks and finally decided to post to ask for help in dealing with physical K manifestations. I started practising chakra meditation about 2 weeks ago and immediately noticed that my sexual desires intensified. Then after a week of practising Root and Sex Chakra meditations I began waking up in the middle of the night, feeling uneasy, sort of anxiety and having uncontrollable muscle spasms. Fortunately, just a day earlier somebody had posted an article to this list dealing with K side-effects, so when the spasms happened, I knew what was happening even though it felt a little frightening since nothing of the sort has ever happened to me. During the past week this has happened three times and it's getting a little annoying... So I was wondering: does anyone have any suggestions how to control those 'attacks' or even make them stop? I've even considered giving up chakra meditation to get rid of the side effects... I'm following a book called "Kundalini Awakening: A Gentle Guide to Chakra Activation and Spiritual Growth" (or something in those lines, don't have the book with me at the moment) and I've advanced up to my Heart Chakra. I do meditations at night before going to bed (at about 1 am) and then usually wake up around 3 or 4 in the morning for about 20 minutes... Might the time of meditation affect my sleep? Would it be better to meditate in the morning? I'd like to hear your experiences, especially if you've had similar problems with regard to your first steps on the K path...

We must give them continuous consciousness attention and be sending them unconditional love as absolutely frequently as possible. The temptation to steal energy from them, thus draining their vitality is great in a weak parent. At night, I place my hand over my daughter's heart center and tell her I am sending her love straight to her heart and I ask her to receive it. Believe me, I am no perfect parent. I just got back from the emergency room and my daughter has a severe kidney infection. I feel like I've been doing something wrong, but I know it was just ignorance on my part. - Melody 13 Date: Fri, 27 Sep 1996 From: melody.gaviganATNOSPAMnvonline.com (Melody Gavigan) Subject: Re: Nannu and Sexuality HH>I would love to have an ongoing thread, with no salaciousness, about how the - >sexual function is altered, especially when the ego lets the K take over, >during awakening.

I feel all these things so deeply that you describe! You even used the word "portal." I had rented a video a couple of weeks ago about the Egyptian pyramids and it showed all about how they built these portals to the heavens. I couldn't get that concept out of my mind...I am now a Portal! And then you say it! Yes, grief can be wonderfully healing. Native Americans say that our heart is moistened by tears, it becomes soft, receptive, earthy, through grieving. My personality has become soft, receptive, and earthy. People say that my voice has even changed; it comes from a place deep within my core Self now, since the beginning of my 3rd chakra awakening. Watches won't work on me and TVs lose their channels around me...guess the energy fields are a problem.

But, the list from Sahaja is as follows: 1 mooladhara = sacrum/tailbone = heel of palm 2 swadisthan = lower abdomen/genitals = thumb 3 nabhi = stomach/navel = middle finger 4 ? = heart = little finger 5 vishuddhi = throat = index finger 6 agnya = forehead, 3rd eye = ring finger 7 sahasrara = crown, fontanelle = palm of hand Hope that is informative. These are really just maps; ways of talking about internal perceptions in terms that the communicators agree on. Also, you may have noticed that there is considerable disparity in the spelling of these esoteric terms. Just as in transliterating Chinese into English (Wade, pinyin), there have been a number of systems in use. The British are responsible for both the most abominable and the most accurate transliterations out of Sanskrit and various Indian languages. During the Raj, for example, the local British postmasters would spell the name of their locality as it sounded to them - not more than one cancel found on a 19th century stamp has baffled collectors for decades, as even to a native English speaker, the spelling was so bad that the actual town name was unidentifiable without supporting evidence! Anyway, Sanskrit (Prakrita, of course, also) is rife with aspirant consonants that don't exist in English or are not generally recognized by English speakers. That is why Hathayoga is NOT pronounced with the first syllable as in the name Hathaway. The 't' that is used in the second syllable is the aspirant form that sounds like the 't' in 'ten' instead of the unaspirated 't' heard in 'bitten' as pronounced by American speakers and most educated British speakers (oddly, some dialects of British have no unaspirated form of 't' at all). This seems odd at first, since both forms sound and appear similar to us, but in the Devanagari script used to spell these words, they are two totally different letters and don't even occur sequentially in a Sanskrit dictionary. As an aside, the 'th' that is used to spell the English sounds heard in 'the' and 'thing' are linguistically rare beasts and occur in only a relatively few languages - not at all in Sanskrit. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Treues berecht, Du!

I vaguely remember adding that to the end of my email, and I am sure it refers to your question about the phrase you heard. I don't know what it means. It looks German.

Are you saying that Kundalini might cause mental illnesses? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Jari, and welcome, I am sure that Haakon will respond with his far more experienced and knowledgeable interpretation to the above, but I think this point is very important and would like to add my view. My son is currently going through some mental problems and I have been doing a lot of late night research to better understand his affliction. In my searching I keep seeing the DSM-IV (Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fourth Edition) quoted as an authority. It is available online and I have been referring to it often. I found that certain symptoms keep being referenced that I can categorically state that I and many on this list exhibit in a classical way. It started to concern me as did my original awakening sequellae. After a while, I started to note that many of these same symptoms are listed for many different mental disorders. Then the realization (must have been a =-) satori(cal) moment) hit me - none of these symptoms (and yes, making puns and plays on words are hot-button diagnosis criteria!) mean anything in anyone's life if they don't cause you to loose your perception of reality or behave in an injurious way to yourself or others. Yes, even the DMS-IV, the Heilige Schrift of the psychiatric profession, recognizes and states that care must be taken to differentiate between psychoses and spiritual states as they DO resemble each other superficially to the trained and more significantly to the uninitiated. Holy men, saints, and even the unmitigatedly benevolent have all appeared daft to some and as shining examples to others. I, myself, have given up putting a huge investment of my psyche into conforming how I appear to others to THEIR beliefs. I conform to societal norms such as wearing clothes in public, but if I wish to take a ten minute meditation break at work (and it is breaktime) I close my eyes and 'tune out'. Some recognize what I am doing, others think I am doing some goofy sixties-guru-thing or just being antisocial - THAT I don't care about, and yes, it does appear eccentric to some. I have also found that I am far more sensitive emotionally, I have larger mood swings that tend to make me sadder at times than I have been and also more elated at others. I was barraged by a torrent of psychic phenomena that you may find dire warnings about. Bullroar! They have quieted down considerably and it was absolutely essential that they happened - despite how disturbing they were to me. I am currently going through a series of spontaneous asanas, mudras and pranic breathings (doing pranayoga in my sleep - my wife tells me). The coincidences and psychic-type phenomena were just a part of the development that I needed to go through on MY journey (I use the phrase that "I am on a different rock in the same stream" from the others on the list). What I needed to learn/accept was that "there is, in some things, no knowing; just belief or disbelief." When I truly accepted that in my soul, the pummeling by psychic-appearing events slowed down and now when they happen, I just grin (humor is one of the really great things about this - I used to be VERY serious and quite a grump =-). I smile, accept the event and REALLY KNOW that it makes NO DIFFERENCE in the world if there is or is not an explanation for it - IT JUST IS! The things that are now happening seem to be clearing out cobwebs and debris from me in some mysterious sort of spiritual way - they are surprising, appear odd occasionally, but they don't hurt me and I just accept them. I think that that in itself is an important lesson for me and perhaps others - faith in the mothering instinct of the kundalini to take care of me in the way that she needs to for my benefit.
