Gloria:
Thanks for sharing this, I'm sending it on to the lists so that people
will understand where you are coming from with the question we posed.
And perhaps something will come through the discussion to help clarify
this.

"And thats the way it was and We Liked it!"
Debora dear, you big hearted and lovely person, I liked the health, vital
energy, and flexibility of my younger years. Never did have enough
flexibility in knees and hips to get into a full lotus position. Also, my
left leg being 3/4 inch shorter than right leg, steady long distance running
was difficult. But I could alternate sprinting, jogging, and walking for five
miles. I could get up at 5:00 am, do calisthenics, run up a hill in Vermont,
and be doing yoga exercises on top of a granite boulder when the sun came up,
with the Winooski River Valley still hidden beneath a blanket of fog. That
was wonderful. For several years, arthritis (in knees and neck) has been a
problem. Since having knee surgery last spring to correct a crippling tendon
problem, I am able to walk several miles at a time without much pain, but the
pleasure of a good run is gone. Swimming is my favorite exercise, but it's
not convenient. My spiritual life was seriously compromised in my youth by my
lack of self-control sexually, and now I don't know whether I am any wiser or
whether it's just that the old grey stallion ain't what he used to be, ain't
what he used to be, many long years ago. It's hard to tell though because my
head is still covered with thick brown wavy hair, and my four sisters are
jealous.
Until March 1979, when I met Yvonne Kason at the Kundalini Research Institute
in Toronto a few days before her near death experience in a plane crash (which
I experienced along with her in the spirit), I never dared discuss my
kundalini experiences with anyone, and even my own knowledge and memory of
kundalini phenomena was largely suppressed. No, I didn't like it the way it
was: I suffered much abuse and persecution for many years due to ignorance of
and hostililty towards kundalini phenomena; I yearned all my life for the
freedom, openness, and flow of information from diverse perspectives that we
are presently enjoying.
I was just employing the Stereotype of a Grumpy Old Man to make fun of myself
and give a little historical perspective on the astounding changes and
advances of the last few years, and you didn't even notice my grinning Santa
Claus which I did just for you -- my favorite niece. Sob. (Ooops, I better
be careful here in case somebody on the list was sexually abused by an uncle
in a Santa Claus suit!)

Personal vocabulary pet peeve - "myth" is another of those
words which has lost a rather beautiful original meaning
somewhere along the way (like "fundamentalist", my
other vocabulary pet peeve). A "myth" originally referred
to a story which provided part of the shared culture and
belief of a group or community. The term implied nothing
about the truth or falsity of the story. As an example, the
story of George Washington chopping down the cherry
tree (almost definitely not true), the story of Paul Revere's
ride (based on a true event, but usually told differently
from what really happened) and the story of the winter at
Valley Forge (definitely true) are all American myths (or
*were* - a sense of shared culture being on the decline).
I think this is the sense that Campbell (what was his
first name?) used it in his books and TV shows on myth.
"American" myths reflect on what Americans think it
means to be an American, Christian myths on being a
Christian, etc, etc. Universal myths - those common to
almost all groups and cultures - reflect on what it means
to be human.

Being raised in a Roman Catholic household and attending
parochial schools had a detrimental affect on me which I have just
recently come to terms with.
I followed the straight and narrow until, at age eleven I
"saw the light" and went my own way which was no-way at all.
In my twenties I hated all religion and blamed much of the
planet's woes on the fear generated by this world's religions. I saw
prayer and worship as a crutch used by those closing in on their
death. A safety valve, just in case.
In my thirties I envied the faithful. I thought, " Hey, there
are millions out there a lot more intelligent than you. What makes you
think you have all the answers ?" I came to understand and envy those
who found their own answer. I still could not reconcile myself to any
man-made faith and fervently hoped, some day, to find an answer that
gave me joy and comfort.
Now in my forties I feel on the edge of an awakening. I'm
beginning to see the " big picture " , the answer that works for me.
We, all of us are GOD. And the project is
" under construction ".
What it is.

Good afternoon everyone! ;-)
I am just writing this to ramble a bit and see if anyone else has
encountered this experience. I have been having serious problems
staying grounded lately, it feels as if I am only half here...with the
rest of me floating somewhere else. Sometimes it gets to the point
where I have extreme difficulties communicating. The english someone is
speaking sounds almost foriegn to me and i have to have them repeat the
question a couple of times. Also when I am speaking I have taken on a
stuttering havit, and it sometimes feels as if the words are stuck in
the throat. Nothing will come out. I am learning to not get frustrated
over it, but sometimes it is really maddening! ;-) This awakening is
just starting for me, and I am wondering if these are all part of the
process. Thanks for any advice or answers ahead of time!
Blessed Be-
danelle

The compassionate but extremely funny Harsha (soon to become somewhat
controversial because of the following post) can't stay silent on this
anymore.
Harsha says: Gopi Krishna had a unique Kundalini experience and went
through powerful psychological traumas but has very little to offer to
the spiritual aspirant.

But Harsha says clearly that: There is a huge difference between "FULL"
and "FORCEFUL." An initial Kundalini awakening may be very "Forceful"
but is rarely "Full." Gopi Krishna did not experience a "Full" Kundalini
just one aspect of the Kundalini Power.

Harsha says: The concept of Urdhava-retas predates Gopi Krishna by
several thousand years. Every advanced student of Yoga knows about it
and knew about it long before Gopi Krishna came on the scene and started
his Crusade.

Harsha says again: These concepts have been in the public domain of
thousands of years. Gopi Krishna did not invent them. Gopi Krisha's
experience was rather limited. The fact that he did not have much
guidance led him to become a crusader about a phenomena that he felt he
was uniquely experiencing.

I guess that explains the emergence of the compassionate and musically

I remember reading an SF novel which lead me to some non-fiction
works by an amatuer anthropoligist. I'm sorry, the names and titles
escape me at present but the gist of all was based on the Sumerian
" Epic of Gilgamesh ".
The " myth " parts of which are substantiated by anthropology is that
up until 12,000 years ago all human belief systems were based on the
female. The " Earth Godess " if you will. Many societies were ruled by
the matriarch and women were placed above men, revered by the males as
" life bringers ". And earth godess fertility statues have been dug up
in all areas of the earth with resident cultures during that time
period. We didn't hear much of this due to the fact that 99% of
anthropoligists were male up until around 1950 and therefore biased.
Since then anthropology has stagnated without any new scientific
techniques to be used in study and research.
Anyway, up until this time the purported theory states that there was
one universal language which was forgotten when a virus struck
humankind ( tower of Babel ? ). This virus was supposedly spread by a
warlike, patriarchal and nomadic tribe that came out of southern
Siberia called " Gakras " ( not sure of this spelling ).
In the Epic the myth is told as a fable where Gilgamesh's wife
steals his " revelations " and throws them into the Tigris river
where they infect the populations and they split into different
cultures moving into different areas only to be displaced by other
tribes retreating against the Gakra invasion.
The author goes on to relate how many of these fables were
bastardized and adopted by other cultures such as the Cannanites who
resided in southern Mesopotamia at that time. He then goes on to
relate these things to the Battle of Jericho, Moses and the Diaspora.
The interesting thing was that he theorized that " speaking in
tongues " , such as Pentacostals sometimes do when taken by the "
rapture " was this long forgotten universal language. When we decipher
this language it will reveal many of lifes mysteries.
If anything it was a good read. Now if only I could remember
the titles..........................
What it is.

Hi GS Donne: I am so glad you picked up this thread about who is this GOD
Jehovah.. for I have expressed my thoughts on it and feared
retributions... but it seems that many feel this too... a step in the
right direction... shoot down the sacred cows.

guns and missiles instead of swords.

Sort of like the Nazis....More like Dark Lords (Darth Vadar) than a God of

asyou have done this to the least of my creatures you have done so to me',

the fire and brimstone vengefulness of the 'smite them hip and thigh'

VERY good.. you see this beautiful contrast too.. and is this father Jesus
speaks of the same as we are told is the Jehovah? I wonder... Jehovah
looks to be an oppressive punitive and uncompassionate being who is always
RIGHT! How does this fit with your idea of the K. energy that streaks
through your body.. and the glimpses of the higher states of samadhi that
you have xperienced? Does not match up for me!
I see Jesus as a great sword cutting through all the mental, traditional
mind control of the Dark Lords that created the nuclear holocaust on earth
some time around 12,000... according to Sitchin. He is a highly advanced
being beyond all this pettiness and booming voices etc. I would venture
to say that the Jehovah is a 4th dimensional being and Jesus a 12th
dimensional one.. quite a bit difference and probably the reason I could
never read the Old Testament without feeling ill. I could only ever read
the New Testament.
I am pretty sure that Jesus was here to herald a new era for man.. and
the 2000 years since his arrival are the incubation period for man to
become the Christ conscious being that he should have been all along.. I
read something profound this week that I will post at my web site perhaps
as it is very long.. that outlines the nuclear war that put us all back
into a very low frequency and did in our DNA.... it looked for a while in
the 50's as if this were going to happen again, and hence that influx
energy in the 60's to change this direction.
>>>
Classic Freudian senario, ("Totem and Taboo") of the Son
taking over the power from the aging father. Except that the father
happens to be God. Or is He?? >>>
If only more people were asking these questions...
How do the pple who believe that every word in the bible comes
from God, and therefore must be right and true, reconcile these apparant
contrasts in the nature and behaviour of God??
>>>
I know becuase I have been there in that state.. and it is only since the
K. and the light energy coursing through my brain and de-conditioning me
that I have been able to ask and seek these ideas for myself. I have just
read a lot and kept on seeking... It was not a direct nor a timely path,
but took years. I think of myself as a pioneer in coming through the
veils and it is hoped that like the 100th monkey, the journey I hve taken
and others are taking and others who knew this all along (lucky they) will
create an environment where one day there will be a paradigm shift and the
whole culture will have understood that Jehovah is not THE divine that we
have been taught... and every one will just get it - snap!
Halleluyah ... they will say..."I am that divine being which I seek." It
won't be long in my opinion... and goodbye to fear and oppression, and
domination and tyranny.

Love allows freedom. Drop the idea that attachment and love are the same
thing. They are enemies. It is attachment that destroys love. (Osho)

If you remember the title/author/whatever of the book that
you read this in, please let me know. I've heard the theory
before that all belief systems before 10,000 BC were
female-based, that matriarchy was widespread, etc, but
quite frankly have never seen any substantiation of those
claims (not to say I haven't seen them asserted a lot).
