As the chi enters the spine, it blends with the shen, producing a mixture of energies that (maybe) equate with the term kundalini. This is also complicated by the notion that chi came become shen, and shen can become chi. >> But this statement is not very complicated when you consider the aspects of duality in Chinese thought- yingyang. They are two separate pieces that flow together to make a whole that contain parts of each other. Thinking about it in those terms helps, for me anyway. So it would not be that strange for shen and chi to become eachother... let me know if this helps. - I have just written a paper on Taoism and ancient Chinese Medicine and a great deal of info on Chi (with a touch of K was included) so this is something I have a lot of sources and quotes for. I can recomend some books or sources onlines if anyone is interested- email me privately.

Hi Philip I have avoided involving myself in this so far, but I guess its time to jump into the fray. I agree with you that words are not all alike. It's like saying that being asked to make love or to have sex with someone is the same thing!!! Experience also denies that the language is generic: for me, I feel chi as a vibratory energy that I can feel rise through energy lines, at acupuncuture points, up the back and up or down the legs. The closest I could describe it would be electromagnetic. Kundalini is different. It starts as hot as coals at the base of the spine and spreads like molten gold upwards like a volcano; the heat is such that I wonder why I do not catch fire! It leads to incredible opening of alternate modes of perception and it heals instantly; unlike chi that takes a little longer for the healing effects to be felt. The Holy Spirit, however, is different from both. (I am not "Christian" although I do follow the teachings of Christ very closely, and then some...") In the system in which I learn, it is called Baraka, and is that which is Life itself, and so, Holy, and can be given by one who is Holy, totally illuminated. When that is given (in small doses in my case) , my breath 'gasps', my body seems to be non-existant for a few seconds, then all I see looks different and an inner joy grows out from the unconscious and bubbles into the conscious mind. It is a feeling of utter peace (unlike K which is very sensuous and chi which is energizing). Prana, on the other hand, is available through technique and is experience of the opening of internal universes or the spaces between the matter within opening into infinity... It seems to me that the three - chi, prana, kundalini may be accesible through man's effort; Baraka or the Holy Spirit cannot, it is a Blessing, a Gift that has little to do with human values. With it, we have the ability to recognize who we really are - god like beings. With chi, prana and K, you can go back; with Baraka or the Holy Spirit, the changes are permanent. I feel like I should footnote this stuff with academia, but I can't, so, have a great day, and thanks for the great reading. jan 3 Date: Sat, 23 Nov 1996 From: Jan Watson Subject: energy transfer Hi Two days ago, someome dear to me sent me energy via e-mail. It literally jumped off the screen onto my face with a discernable force, like being hit with a mitten. Fantastic! Has anyone here tried that before? Any luck? If you haven't, maybe we could try with each other? Are there 'senders' and 'receivers' like in psi or should most of us be able to send? If you want to email me this way, I'll try to return the 'favour'. Thanks jan 4 Date: Sat, 23 Nov 1996 From: "L.D. McClanahan" Subject: Kundalini and Various Diseases Hi, It is not uncommon for those with rising Kundalini to experience various physical and psychological symptoms related to how the energy becomes integrated within the body. Yet, after Kundalini has risen many seem to be able to access the energy for many types of "awareness." I was wondering if any of you has any experience with anyone who might have different kinds of disease such as heart trouble, cancer, different kinds of viruses, etc. - Would appreciate your thoughts.

This could be K, you will know by what follows. K tends to grow in intensity so there will be no doubt if it is. Meanwhile work on aligning your will with God in your life, so that whatever is to come you will be prepared for. That is what I suggest to all souls on the journey of return.

This is totally from grace and prior preparation, this pure frequency is transcendental/transformational lifeforce that instantly changes life. It is directly from Godhead. Kundalini is man's potential being unleashed. It provides different states of awareness to the evolving soul, and some of these are with power. Yet, the soul is still restricted in time and space. The Holy Spirit transcends time and space and the soul is instantly beyond the restricted areas of consciousness. Kundalini follows a set awakening plan, and each stage of the consciousness change brings on more awareness, it still involves the body working through and moving into transcendental consciousness. When the two come together to do God's Will in the universe, you have a Christed Soul doing God's Will for the purpose of Enlightening Humanity. This soul is one with the light stream, and therefore directly connected to God head.

Yes, the primordial Aum, all sound and no sound, I enjoy this a lot when I feel it. It is a nice reflecting, but paused mood. The times I have heard pitch changes in a body's sound is when energy has been releasing corresponding to that body. Tim - 9 Date: Sat, 23 Nov 1996 From: Tim Duna Subject: Re: >>>>>Vampire Games.

There is no such gadget, as far as I know. Actually I was hoping for a chakra level. From what I have seen in my own healing, there are fourteen chakras, seven in the body, seven above the crown. However, these seven above the crown correspond to seven earthen chakras below the feet. Then the next level is what I call base chakra to the second power, sex chakra to the 2nd power, etc. I am sure there are higher levels still. This information may be untruthful through ignorance, but not on intention. For instance, I may be wrong about the number of the earthen chakras, or the ones above, my perceptions aren't so clear on these levels. But the main idea is that the energy going above, returns below as a stronger, higher level of energy that moves upward again. This isn't just energy circulation, but higher planes of existence. > Open question to the list: what level does one become invisible at? > Is there terminology, vocabulary for that in some discipline? > The Celestine prophecy mentions it, and I have a very K. awakened >friend whose husband has seen her vanish, I'll ask her if she has a scale >she uses to measure such things.. > Isn't that the big problem, with K. and science.

Perhaps I'll get my electronics slave to invent something! There must be some way, as I can feel or see larger light splotches on higher level beings. These flash, and earthen people usually have dots of light, and those in darkness (spiritual ignorance) I can't feel any light. There must be some way to measure these differences in one's energy, other than using one's own senses. I would imagine that invisibility would have it's certain pitch of frequency and it's frequency of light splotches. > > We measure it by experiences? > The level was the visibility threshold, I guess. > Or is your question about how did I raise my K. that high? No, I have an idea that your sexual energy was running high that night, and it was transmuted into higher realms naturally as it was an overload in the lower centres, as the energy had to go somewhere. - > cymbal and I were on acid, but raven was completely sober...that's >why my becoming invisible was so much harder on her reality.

A very long one. >It is sacred and powerful magic, to me. I use it occasionally to evolve >myself, make changes, discoveries and new connections in my deep unconscous. - I would like to someday take a peyote or other natural initiation. I have heard acid can be harmful if taken in too big of doses, as it will cause a waking mind crisis and shut-down. The reason for this is because our bodies are not made to handle unnatural drugs. Right now however, I have enough energy going through without the help of drugs, I don't think using them would be helpful, in fact, very well could be harmful. >And I love to play with the waves of blue fire that I see/feel rising up >from my body so clearly in that state. I have begun to see it straight as >well, I'm learning where precisely to orient my internal focus. Interestingly enough, I have seen something similar, a turquoise blue energy waves coming out in front of my face when I was really fatigued once. And when I say fatigued, I mean REALLY fatigued. We were trying to push a truck out of the snow on a lake. I gave it my all and then some and afterward just fell down into the snow from exhaustion. That's when the waves started coming out like fire or radiation. > Mind you, the next day, without acid, I started glowing blue >phosphorescence again, and part of my face turned to smoke.

And some of the others beings that appear...if >other poeple could see them, I had to accept that they were not hallucination. Then this means you have yet to intergrate fully that multi-dimensional Self. I can give an explanation to the 'me' actually being other personalities. Seth speaks about how all probable selves ride the same wave of the multi-dimensional Self, how not one is an island. This is true. We can feel ourselves becoming multi-dimensional and interacting with other's multi-dimensionality. These probable selves are aspects of our personality, passive, while what we consider 'us' is dominant. However, in each of their realities, 'you' are passive and they are the dominant personality. It is for this reason of each incarnation holding all of the others that all karma happens in this life. We naturally attract situations and react and act in a multidimensional way that mimics the pattern of action and reaction of 'before'. The pattern is based upon emotional pitches or frequencies, and not necessarily the events, but this doesn't exclude events totally. > The more energy I raise, the faster, and clearer the other beings >appear, till finally, they are blurring, changing too fast to be seen, and >so I turn to smoke and become invisible, like the spokes of a wheel turning. > Vibrating faster than this visible dimension?

Is this becoming the higher self? To not confuse terms, when I say 'higher self' I am referring to the White Light plane higher self, the eighth chakra connects to this. Is it embodying and expressing fully this being, no sense of ego at all? 15 Date: Sun, 24 Nov 1996 From: GrandmmaATNOSPAMaol.com Subject: Re: Kundalini and Various Diseases Dear LD I am approximately 3 years into a spontaneous K awakening.

I have a feeling that all three of these medical diagnosis's are directly related in some way to my K awakening.

I had assumed this because at highest intensity I have exhibited body-shakes that I and Karen could see. However, during the persistant 'humming' that comes and goes, there is a perception of sound within me, but no externally visible shaking. I assumed that this was simply a toned-down version of the heavier type that included shaking/shivering. I had tried to feel the tremor with my hands by touching various parts of my body and never could - I felt that this was because the tremor was very fine, internal, and since it seemed to be in all parts of my body that the hands with which I was trying to feel the tremors were also trembling at the same rate and that this produced a 'cancelling' effect so I couldn't 'feel' it myself. Karen has told me that when I am 'humming' in bed, it vibrates the water, the bed and her. She has also said that she can and has reached out to touch my body to feel the tremors and that there are none perceptible by touching me. This surprised me as it seems to be a non sequitor. How is it that I can be producing (for hours on end) a tremor/vibration that can be transmitted through water, strongly perceptible to her, and yet neither she nor I can feel it on palpating my body?
