Hi Kundalites,
He was crying when he was born.
He was crying when he died. There was no single day that
He has not shed a tear or two.
I found joy when rocking in my mum's arms. And when resting my head on my girl's lap.
Forgetting myself was really joy. Greatest joy of all was giving up Selfishness.

Message-Id:
Hi Kundalites,
It is a horrible story. I'll cut it short.
A Priest and a lady with her baby were stuck in a haunted house. The demons will not let them go unless they see the priest commit a sin. The priest
has to either drink a bottle of Whisky or rape the lady or murder the baby. Well, the priest took the obvious choice. He drank the whisky. Got drunk.
Lost all senses. Raped the lady. The baby's constant crying really irritated him. And he murdered the baby.
Well, the morale of the story?
Beware, sometimes what we regard as a minor action might be just the front link to a disaster (remember the DOMINO EFFECT and AVALANCHE EFFECT from my
previous mail).
Regards, SHADOW.

Thank you Angelique for sharing this story. It is exactly what I needed
to hear. I have been going through a very similar experiece with abundance and happiness. A part of me was thinking that life will
always be like this because I have been living in lack for so long. I have been trying to change my thinking and live in faith, but it is easy
to slip back into old thinking patterns.
I will need to read this story more and how it affected you so that I can grasp it fully within myself. Thank you again.

Well done Rhavy, Those of you with no manifestation of K but growth in qualities of the
KKK (Kinship, Kindness and Knowledge) are doing much better than the
shaktiput junkies and snake charmers (well done to those who are developing KKK too).

My lack of knowledge could fill the LAKE! Our Beloved Swami in further
efforts to deny us Shaktiput will be attending the Wimbledon Tennis Championships tomorrow (Wednesday). The esoteric significance is beyond
my unfilled LAKE comprehension. Despite this as a devoted disciple I will be attending in order to better understand the nature of people
enjoying themselves.
Sayings of Swami Harish:
We have been here two hours (he has a watch) I am not religious.
Yeeaaahhhhh?? Its only money.
His efforts at genuine wisdom will obviously be worth waiting for. We
have every confidence in his abilities. May all kundalites one day find a Guru worth their while training . . .
Most Kind Regards

Well it is time that as mature adults we begin to realise that we would have to
ultimately work out our karmas. We are always working out our karmas. The K - yoga is the fastest known route to work out the karmas. The other ones
being the path of devotion, the path of desireless work and the path of knowledge.
Mature adults face anything they have to without getting frightened (;-))>.
I am sure no one would be able to do a bit of crime without feeling bad of
guilty about it. That is our karma and isn an dthat is what we would have to work out.
This human body, mind and intellect are tools to work out the karma. The earlier
we acknowledge this and start the better for us....
Cheers and love to all Ashanka

What you mentioned is an age old dialogue obout the nature of the soul and ego. We are getting into the same one. One school of thought says that the
ego expands or contracts according to the actions and purity. The advait (non-dualist) school states that the soul is without any characteristics and
merely exists, and one cannot attribute any "size" to it. It is only perceived big or small depending on our imperfections.
We can go on and on with this and quote unending text....
The basic principle is to transcend our "human" limitations and comprehend the
infinite. This needs body tuning and ofcourse opening up of the "chakras" through
K-yoga. Any path of meditation would lead us to this goal.
Once the goal is reached....well.....who knows....answers and directions could fall from "heaven" !
Cheers and love to all

Subject: Ego and Fish Story and Love Message-Id:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
YES, I was thinking the same thing that Holly wrote! (And I adore the fish
story!)
As I watched the bouncing ego-ball dialogue, I kept saying to myself, "But I remember a time when I had no ego, no self--when I was a negative number
on the ego scale." And I remember that I had to GET an ego and later contend with it while embracing/engaging "the world." In other words, I
had to have some ego strength and had to traverse the terrain of that ego many times and know its limitations before being able to consider stepping
outside of its periphery and relinquishing that paradigm for being. I would say that I still have some of all this ego-continuum currently in me.
Sometimes the "minus ten" in me emerges; sometimes the ego-self-fish is out there butting against the plexiglass-of-the-moment; and sometimes whatever
is me IS everyone and everything and good things happen! I like rams' notion of Love being mathematical justice, but I don't feel that loving in
a "specific" sense diminishes love in the "general" sense--or any other "specific" case. For me at this particular space/time, loving is a
synergistic-growing-metastacizing Energy-Fabric which is woven for-me/by-me/through-me/around-me. (My "gut" says that this is just of
"taste" of more to come; my "gut" also says that I need to keep one foot on the ground for ballast! This is just what I KNOW I have to do; it's not
particularly advice for anyone! It's my way of being "kind to the fish!")
Thanks--Holly, Angelique, ram, et al.

LISSETTE: I am a Reiki Master Teacher and unlike many teahers i give the student a
symbol with the first initiation. However, I only place one symbol in the aura. So I add the symbol to your intuition AND conscious mind. For
the students I have worked with it seems easier on their clearing and cleansing. Then with Level II I give two more symbols.
Reiki has no limitations as far as I am concerned. I had a class at the Adult Education this past week and one of my students was Chi Chung
Master. He seemed to need all kinds of conscious mental support. He said he took the class for 5 years and had to learn all the pressure points
for accupressure/accupuncture. And he directs the energy specifically toan area. With Reiki.. you accept that Reiki will go where it is
needed and it flows as asked. smile. I don't think the symbols lose their power in any way shape or form. I
have never experienced that. Diane Steins book has some very valuable information. I have been told some of her symbols are incorrect and are
being used in the wrong way. Her Master symbol is one we use for blasting thru the pain and takiing
it away. You can do Reiki laying on of hands by just praying. See Hands Of Light
by Barbara Brennen's book. However the Reiki Attuenment and initiation make it much easier to trigger your mind to channel the divine force
thru you to an person, plant or animal.. Yep.. use it on all of them.. It works.
I can give Reiki Over the internet.. Love and Light,
