Reading all these posts about watches, I didn't even realize, about a year ago I stopped wearing a watch. It stopped working on me a couple
of times, but that's not why. I just didn't want to be burdened with the notion of time.
Meditating on time is an interesting thing. Here to there, kind of takes away the meaning of now. It boggles the mind to think of all the
things that could be done if there was enough time. But only one thing is really going to get done before the next, so meditate on that one
thing and make it as perfect as you.
Blessings to all! John Halonen

Shining trees (love the phrase!) was one of the first ways I noticed my vision changing after k-awakening, accompanied by that sense of love
you mentioned. Then everything started to shimmer as though something immensely powerful from beyond was trying to "push through." And the
Colors! I imagine that when we see these things we've become more shimmering and transparent as well because we're all of the same stuff.

Way cool! i've noticed this too. Last summer it got to the point i could almost see, definilty could *feel* the currents of life energy in the
trees. One can touch them and feel this current. it so...well... its alive! They have differences too, like people do. Each tree is its own
uniqueness. Some are wiser than others too i feel.
On a meditation retreat i did last summer, it got to the point where one night the trees started *clapping*. i remember getting a bit bug-eyed and
open mouthed. Ego mind took over and i got scared from it. Residual goofball karma rising :).
> Love and light (......makes more sense to me now)
Most definitly :).
i have a question about auras. why is it sometimes i can see them and
sometimes i cant? is there anyway to see ones own aura?
And thanks for the thread about the watches. I took mine off, (its a new one, they never last long for me either.) And i can feel a difference
already. Maybe its suggestion, but i did notice my last watch pooped out on that summer retreat after a strong meditation session. The little
second hand got stuck on the 2 and kept ticking on the two. I liked that one too, it was a Marvin Martian watch.
lights & love,

Like yourself, John, I stopped wearing a watch many years ago. Wasn't
really sure why I did, just did. Now i know that I too didn't wish to be bogged down by the concept of time. Sure i still have schedules to
meet, and i do work, so i need a clock in my home to tell me when those events muct occur, but i am not controlled by constantly seeking
time anymore.
I will do as you suggest and mediatate on time and see where that gets me.
Thanks
Love and Light

Message-ID:
I too have seen the aura of trees.
Here in Newport News, Virginia - USA, the state is working on expanding the interstate system (I-64). In the process they are
cutting down all of the trees in the close vicinity of the work. This infuriates me to no extent. While driving back to work the
other day, I saw a very tall healthy pine fall and hit the ground as a result of the work. Tears immediately came to my eyes
and my heart hurt. Then I pass the remains of the uprooted trunks of hundreds of trees. The sight left me depressed and
does so every day I drive by.
I can't even cry for my pain both emotional and physical, but I can for a fallen tree? Or could this be I am approaching a
need for help? I hope my increased sensitivity to Mother Earth is a result of Kundalini.

Hello to all those who walk the path of kundalini. I didn't realize that the path I walked was this one until I started putting all the myriad of pieces together, and it all seemed to fit together. I had a friend 5 years ago, we were very close. She taught me alot about veganism, and I worked out 3 hours a day....I was in great physical and mental condition. I found out in the course of our 2 year 'friendship' that she was indeed NOT my friend. I walked away from her, and when I did so alot of strange things started happening. First, I remember I had trouble sleeping, and eating. I also had strange storylines going through my head, and I believed everyone of them. (I know this all sounds wierd but please bear with me). Anyway to make a long story short,at age 31 I was diagnosed with manic depression....but what I don't tell the doctors is that almost all of the 'storylines' that went on in my head when I was going through mania have come to pass in the last five years..!
! !
! !
.I have heard some people link manic depression with kundalini...I have found that after my mania episodeI am much more aware of everything..and my psychic ability has gone through the roof....Has anyone ever gone through 'mania' only to find out that years later, or months later alot of the things that went on inside the mind happened in physical reality???If anyone is interested in what happened to me, what the storylines were about, and how it all manifested in reality please contact me..if you get scared too easily please don't e-mail me!!!!Thank- you all for reading this..also..any mental health doctors out there willing to e-mail me and explain what happened??Anybody out there???HELP!!!!!

Light, Peace and Love To All...
If I haven't introduced myself yet, forgive me; it's John bill beaudine. Friends call me Bill.
For me, paranormal experience began at age 5. By 18, I knew I was living in Grand Central Station wherever I was, with all sorts of Spirits coming and going. I've studied extensively, been with some truly wonderful and profound Teachers, which culminated in the late 70's and early 80's sitting under the Oak Groves in Ojai, CA, many a Saturday and Sunday listening and absorbing the intentions and sharings of a most wise man by the name of Jiddu Krishnamurti. Even got to shake his hand. What a smile and Light; :D, an indelible memory.
I have received through experience the understanding that Truth is indeed a pathless land. We stand alone (all one) in the breakthroughs of eliminating our ignorance, conditioning and beliefs in Awakening to what already Is. In Late December of last year, a major breakthrough in K was experienced and for the next 3 months, I was a mental basket case as I was personally guided by Spirit through past lives, errors in understanding, grounding and direction. It would take many hours to express that ordeal and I would still come up short in my sharing, as one cannot give ones experience to another.
Tim Dunas post, "As long as I'm still on..." reminded me of the Voice in the Wilderness, whos voice is and was me. Many a year I cried and still do when I fall back into the ignorance that I am alone in my tortured moments of misunderstanding. As words don't mean anything compared to their intent as signals of direction, I am reminded how difficult surrender and letting go can be; or, how liberating and emancipating.
Old habits fall hard; sometimes very hard. As we are all Children in the Awakening that is transpiring now, trauma on all levels is to be expected. Many are breaking their fundamentalism structures of belief and religion in new experience and knowledge. They surely will face judgement, condemnation and rejection from their former peers and loved ones. Standing in the Light and remaining there is not a value to this world system. It is a major threat to its ultimate and assured dissolution. It is in these times that I choose to reach out my hand to another. Like a birthday card I recently received, "Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our own wings have trouble remembering how to fly."
To Tim Duna : Hang in there. Be still and listen long. You can do it. The answers are there to them who listen.
Light and best...

ditto, me too. I have heard of people who somehow volunteered to process pain and suffering, beyond their own personal pain, since this does sound
like a lot for one man to bear. Perhaps there is a message in this pain, a call to reach out
to others for support of some kind, any kind would be better than doing this alone,Tim.

Welcome, Lorianna. If you will visit my site, which is listed below, you
can find some good starting material on Kundalini. Since I have been experiencing an extremely robust Kundalini experience for more than
6-1/2 years, I have devoted an entire section of my site to Kundalini Awakening in the hopes that it will provide some help to those who
visit. In the "Spiritual Zone" section of the "Marketplace" you will find it. There are listings of common symptoms, sources of help for
those in crisis, a list of what I believe are the best books on the subject, some of my personal experiences, etc. Check it out and let me
know if it was helpful.
I think you'll find this k-list a valuable place for exchange of personal experiences and information. Because of my schedule, I often
have a difficult time keeping up with the volume of mail, but it is a comfort to know that there are so many of us experiencing the Spirit
within. Again, welcome. --

I, too, can identify with Tim's post. Before Kundalini awakened in me, I
would not have believed any human being could endure what I have gone through. I wonder, at times, how I was able to retain any faith in an
all-loving God. I know what it is like to curse God - to scream "Why hast thou forsaken me?" I have been to the depths and I have soared to
the highest mountain. I know what I am and I trust the Power that is within. My heart goes out to you, Tim. I know that words seem weak when
you are in the depths of despair. But, trust that this will pass - because it will. We are all in this together. Here's the secret - There
is only One of us here. --
