kundalini-l-d Digest Volume 96 : Issue 231 1 Date: Mon, 11 Nov 1996 From: fluteATNOSPAMprodigy.com (CAROLYN MALONEY) Subject: Energy Rebuild In Progress...Done! Thank you for posting this.. It verifies what I feel.. If you take physics and realize what you are learning, your halfway there. All is energy and each individual ( us) is part of the whole (rocks/plants/animals). The energy just moves in different vibrations and we respond to those vibrations or understand them as different forms. This is forms as of Words, sound, smell, taste and feelings. for example.. look at your ceiling fan (if you have one-grin) When its moving slowly you see the arms, if you turn up the speed you can no longer see the arms of the fan, but you know its there because of the movement you feel. grin, flute Start of Forwarded message via Prodigy Mail From: Mistress Angelique Subject: Energy Rebuild In Progress...Done! - Well, now you get a testimonial! I mentioned I asked one of my companions of last evening to write his experience of my energy work, the events of last night when I was experimenting with crystals. Here it is. I have his permission to include his email address on the post, and he has agreed to recieve email from listmembers who may wish to query or comment. No flames, please! Recognize this is an act if trust in the list, on his part. He is not a member. Yet! I will mention, though, that I hardly spoke to him at all while I was placing the crystals on him, I was too busy focusing on what I was doing, creating the energy flows. I asked him about DNA, later. Angelique. - >From: Lloyd Sumpter > >Well, here's my version of what happened last night. Feel free to edit to >Your heart's content.

I have come across some interesting things about it in my search. >For one, the OT is a Kabalistic work. No it's not, Tim.

Wrong again: several of the works appeared in Greek in their original version; most were written in Hebrew. - >This is why it says in the bible that the words shall not be changed, >unfortunatly, >they have been and so have the meanings. What are you implying? That someone changed the words of Scripture without the Jews knowing about it? Who do you think did this? And why? What evidence do you have for this? Sounds like conspiracy theory number 3,212! Tim (and others who believe as he does), It is simply not true that the Old Testament was written by Kabalists (this is not a matter of subjective belief, but objective, historical fact, which anyone can research and verify.) When interpreting the scriptures of any tradition, it is important to first and foremost understand what the author(s) were trying to communicate (not what we project into their minds). The Genesis account of creation is a synthesis of at least four sources of Hebrew oral tradition. Other books of the Old Testament derive from these and other Hebrew traditions. The book was not written or edited by any one person or group (no, not even Moses!). - The Kabalists figure very insignificantly, here, as there is little evidence of their existence prior to 100 B.C. (Abraham was 1,800 B.C.; David around 1,000 B.C.). There was a large body of Scripture (the entire Old Testament!) already formed when the kabalists appeared. It seems that the kabalists were more influenced by gnosticism and neo-Platonism than by Judaism; they seemed to project the former into the latter. As for numerology, it certainly was taken more seriously by the Jews and Christians of ancient times than their later counterparts. Nevertheless, the Bible is not a text of numerological expression. There have been many attempts to do numerological analyses of the texts, and some have claimed to establish definite correlations. Modern scholars who have delved into this have concluded that some of the authors were making an effort at numerological "syntax", but most others were not. Rather than the Bible being a numerological code that was later changed by unsympathetic editors, the converse seems to be the case: that a few editors tried to impose numerological text-ing. The Hebrew language was (and is) quite capable of expressing the Hebrew experience of God without tying it to a numerological base. I don't know how the above affects the slant on Genesis and kundalini that you shared. Certainly, a kabalistic and even a numerological interpretation of Genesis is valid, but not because that's how the text was originially written or intended to be understood. Peace!

In Service to the Light, - 5 Date: Mon, 11 Nov 96 From: Marc Nevas Subject: Hello Dear Members of the Kundalini list, I have just recently discovered your discussion group and I am pleased to be a part of it. My name is Marc Nevas and I have recently moved to Bigfork, Montana in a valley in the Rocky Mountains just south of Glacier National Park. I am here because I am in transition from being what I thought I was to understanding and accepting who I am, and this is a good place to do that. For nineteen years I have been doing what is necessary to raise four children teach them my values and send them on their way in this vastly changing universe. Four the last sixteen of those years I have also struggled to overcome some of the core issues I had come to this earth to face. With that period soon drawing to a close it is time for me to process who I am and move into my next phase of expression. My kundalini was first awakened in the fall of 1970 under the guidance of my teacher and mentor (Shrii Shrii Anandamurtii) and that winter I had my first full ascension of kundalini to the point where I lost (gained) consciousness. Because I was associated at that time with a group where this was not an uncommon event, there was help, support and guidance in dealing with this very profound and life shaking phenomenon. However because it was considered to be such a positive thing in that group, few talked realistically about the pain and pathos it caused in the a period following even a controlled awakening. Also at that time I was young, had few responsibilities, and was living in an era when dramatic change had become common and sought after. With the exception of having my kundalini begin to rise sometimes spontaneously when I was at the wheel of a car, I was not greatly incapacitated. My biggest problem was the incredible pain and subsequent fear of that pain whenever I sat down to my meditation, so I found it necessary to back off on my meditation practices. I began teaching meditation and continued that on and off for twenty five years. Although my background in spiritual tradition is from the East, I find that the blend of Eastern philosophical roots and Western openness and the emerging model of self empowerment is a powerful blend. Therefore I am pleased for the knowledge I gained in the East, but sense that the new center of application of spiritual practices is in the West. In short, I am very glad to be here. - Two years ago I attended my first Kundalini Research Network conference in California and was astounded to come in contact with so many people who had been blown away by spontaneous kundalini awakenings. I was struck by the fact that they came from every walk of life, and many had previously known nothing of heightened spiritual states. I met nuclear physicists, college professors, martial arts instructors, nurses, MD's and career military sergeant all who had dramatic changes in their lives because of the spontaneous and powerful awakening of the kundalini. A few had either lost their jobs or changed their careers as a result of the kundalini experience. - Approximately 60% of the attendees at the conference were professionals who were in involved in researching kundalini and helping those who needed assistance in integrating the experience. I was impressed by the professional level of their work and the commitment they brought to what they do. One year later I also attended the annual conference in Philadelphia and was equally impressed by the quality and nature of the work of the professionals. Most hopeful however was the dramatic improvement I witnessed in some of the people I met a year before who were in great suffering and confusion. I interpret this as a very hopeful sign that these people would heal and find new meaning to life if not new lives altogether. One of my favorite moments was to see a woman who had been career military now making her way by teaching classes in tai chi, spontaneous movement and dancing somewhere on the coast in Northern California. I attended one of her workshops and found it delightful. In any case, having spiritually emergent experiences in today's materialistic society is a challenge to us all. Through the pain and pathos I am absolutely delighted to be on this earth right now during this period of awakening. If I can be of assistance to any one on this list, please feel free to contact me.

I've heard word that the oriental practice of binding women's feet was not just a beauty thing, it was more to prevent their feet from forming a good root to the earth. Women are actually very good naturally at doing chi kung and so the men wanted to prevent them from becoming more powerful. Many, many, many acu[points are located in the feet... a good foot massage can make most ailments feel much better if the giver knows what s/he is doing.... just some thoughts. -- Rev. Steve Elsner!

Roughly we need 2x as much calcium as magnesium. --at least women do--- However I have found that as I heal I need less supplements altogether, so we have to always listen to our own bodies. What I do is if I get even a little achiness I take magnesium, the amounts depend on how achy I am. That seems to be a precursor for me to the muscle spasms. I take plenty of yogurt and calcium in any case . Mostly I have eliminated muscle spasms except when I am ill with a bug. Then they return but that is because the body is eliminating the congestion from the cold or whatever. - The migraine headaches can be relieved by taking decongestants, this is as effective or more effective than painkillers. I do this if I am desperate. But I did read that they are caused by an imbalance between the ajna/crown centers. Mine come on if I push the process of knowledge gathering that goes with "K" too much. So too much reading, writing, or heavy studying may trigger it if I am tired. I am careful to alternate all such periods with walks, and other relaxations. If a headache comes on, it is helpful to send the excess energy out through the heart. Easily done by mentally blessing all you meet or something similar---energy naturally flows from the heart then. Delightful way to deal with it.!!

One of my first post "K" lessons was an encounter with the fairies. Only what I learned from them was that they are the particles of energy----at a quantum level scientists would call the quarks and the like. They are lower kingdoms that make up the fabric of matter. And to answer the sceptics I didn't believe in any of this stuff before "K"---but if the fairies want you to believe, they will make you. Not to drag this out, I would suggest that if you look at the energy particles, and they disappear, they are simply shy. Fairies do that! And yes I am serious with this-----and as I've said before, if I seem Kooky I"m not because I know how strange this reply sounds. Love Jule - 9 Date: Mon, 11 Nov 1996 From: SYL228ATNOSPAMaol.com Subject: Re:K/Genesis After "K" I was impelled to read the Old Testament and after 4 years am still doing it. I see "K" every where I look. Won't speculate on what I think is going on. Some of it is definetly drawn from the Sumerian stuff----all who are interested must read Zechariah Sitchin. He is both a Sumerian and Old Testament scholar. Much of what he tells I have seen psychically before I read his books, so I think at least some of it is true. I dont agree with all his conclusions but that's OK. Another good source is the metaphysical Bible Dictionary published by Unity. Anyone wants details, write to me---haven't got mine on hand at the moment. It gives the roots of the Hebrew words and metaphysical meanings which helped me enormously in my understanding. Love Jule - 10 Date: Mon, 11 Nov 1996 From: stampmanATNOSPAMix.netcom.com (Daniel Rusch-Fischer ) Subject: Getting Your Wish You will recall that I noticed that prime parking spots have been opening up for me with increasing regularity. Karen has gotten to the point that if we don't get the first parking spot she looks over at me and rolls her eyes as if to say - Hey! What gives! Where's your kundalini parking attendant? It appears that it is nothing new to many of the 'old timers' (my k-a happened only 5 months ago). It was, however, getting to be somewhat irritating and I was starting to pass up spots and heading for the back of the parking lots just to have some leg work. I am perfectly healthy and have no need or use for a parking spot next to the disabled slots. It is as if these spots are being pushed on me and I resent it - it has gotten so bad, that a first spot is open and we have to wait as 'circling vultures' zip ahead of us and THEN slowly drive right by the open first spot leaving it for us - AAARRRRGGGGHHH! An ugly flash popped into my head that was like a plot for 'Tales From the Crypt'. I imagined some guy with a 'gift' misusing it to wish for 'good' parkings spots and then winding up disabled and getting them for the rest of his life.

I imagined some guy with a 'gift' misusing it to wish for >'good' parkings spots and then winding up disabled and getting them for >the rest of his life. YEOW! > In elementary school, was read to me a horror story called "the monkey's paw." - A couple gets a magical monkey's paw, which will grant three wishes. Each wish has a worse negative backlash than the wish before, and in the end, they use thier last wish to end the nightmare. That story made me afraid to wish for things for a loooong time. It crippled the young witch. The little catholic girl took it right in. Took a lot of work to uproot that fear from my unconscous. It's about comfort zones, and deserving good in life. If we recieve blessings that we do not feel we deserve, we create a negative backlash, to punish ourselves for our percieved greed. It comes from the fear based inner child, who was taught that asking for things for one's own pleasure, is selfish. - In fact, we are lilies, and the universe wants to care for us in comfort and happiness. It is only our fear that creates struggle. It's not true that we need to work hard to get what we want-except if hard work is felt to be enjoyable to the individual. What is true, that we must work very hard, to remove the fear based beliefs that keep us from effortlessness. The hardest task, is adjusting the comfort zones around deserving. Accepting love and abundance as natural. And if you don't want front parking spots, reprogram your parking atttendant. Your spirit guides have more power than you guess, as much as you give them. By all means, lean on them! That's what they're for! Thier entire purpose, to assist our spiritual growth, as much as we let them. No way are we meant to handle this stuff alone, but the trick is, we have to ask! And stop putting human fears and limits on other types of beings. The limit to which your Angels can help, is only the limit you set, by what you do or do not ask for. They love you. They totally want to help. but they cannot interfere without permission. I made a deal with my Guardian Angels, about for 'the good of all, and harm to none.' Anything that I do, magically or energetically, they have permission to step in and alter for the better, any expression of mine that might inadverdently do harm. Even, any wish that I make, that perhaps is too limited, they have permission to create something even better for me than I wish for, in thier wisdom. And they have permission to make me feel really uncomfortable, if I seem headed by ego in a harmful direction. Because I trust them to do this for me, I ean express my energy full blast, knowing that any possible harm is being changed or deflected for me by my Angels, who obviously, I can trust to have better judgement than I. Likewise, I can wish for the moon, and if I don't get it, I know it was not in my best interest to have it. If I do get it, I can enjoy it without fearing that because it is mine, someone is harmed. The other bonus, is if something does happen, that appears negative, I can trust that it really isn't, and start looking for the silver linings the Angels must have hidden somewhere for me. The surrender deal: trust your higher power more, have a happier life. right now they're giving me/allowing the expression of a slight headache, and going inside to ask what was incorrect, I was gently reminded that my intake for today has so far consisted of one cup of tea, and it is high time (4:30 pm already!) to get off the computer, and care for my physical form with nourishment.
