Sometimes I enjoy just the state of experience intense emotion, so I don't
act immediately. I probably would try to control jealousy to give me the
energy to add to my personality those aspects of anothers' for which I am
jealous. I cannot channel fear into anything. My body becomes alarmed
and vibrates out of control. If I permit fear to grow, it might cause a
stroke. Instead, I use logic to calm my fear. Am I doing anything that
you would suggest improvement upon? By control, I don't mean I focus my
attention on the emotion and attempt to edit it. I generate thoughts that
will release the emotion in a productive way.>>
It *is* scary to reject logic. Yet, logic is a construct of society; and
awakening has very little to do with logic as understood in this culture.
So why not try to simply set logic aside, for awhile, on a trial basis, and
allow yourself to just experience "what is" nonjudgmentally? In other
words, give yourself permission to get out of your own way for a time.
If you consider that fear is the absense of the energy we call love, then
indeed you don't want to let it grow. Anger is just an overlay to fear.
It's the fight part of the "flight or fight" model of a pursued animal or a
beleaguered human. Jealousy, obsession, possessiveness, and the like are
simply forms of fear as well. So is anxiety which is what you are
experiencing when you say that your "body becomes alarmed and vibrates out
of control."
These emotions reflect an emptiness that can only be filled with love. So
how can we let love fill us? The only way I know is by working to dissolve
the inner blocks of congealed pain that stop the flow of this energy through
us.
Love,

I agree with Freda on the matter of spiritual awakening being between the
'enlightened' and God. Dissecting the spirit is a meaningless task scientists
could while away a good bit of research money on.
Shamans go through the same 'dissection' as those Gene is describing in k-
awakened states. 6 of one, half dozen of the other.
Have a great day.

This is far below your normal standard - suggest you start realizing that
people are people (good, bad, or indifferent) irrespective of whether they
are housewives, coolies, engineers, teachers, or even politicians.

Anandajyoti:
I do not consider the radiant self to be the result of bio magnetic currents,
but rather the bio magnetic currents could be the manifestations of the
radiant self on the physical plane.
And again, the meditative method should be to focus on the radiant self,
instead of the bio magnetic currents. When the biomagnetic currents manifest
then only can we postulate if the radiant self is the cause or not..
--------
Ed:
Thanks for responding, Anandajyoti. I would appreciate if you would
explain your use of the term 'bio magnetic currents'', since it is different
from the terms I use in my post: bio-electric currents, and bio-magnetic
fields. I did a search on "bio-magnetic currents" and could find no
reference to the term.
Also, when in a state of radiance, which is of oneness, there is no longer
another me to do any focusing.

Well, there are four techniques that have occasionally worked for me in
returning to certain dreams, so I'll toss them out for your
consideration (in order of success rates from best to worst). Whether
these would work in the context of your "metro" dreams or visions I'll
leave to your experimentation.
First, if I am in a dream (where I'm aware I'm dreaming) and feel myself
waking up, if I want to stay in the dream I try to "anchor" myself to
the "physical sensations" of the dream. Example - in one dream as I felt
myself waking up, I flattened myself against a wall and held my dream
companion's hand, then closed my eyes and concentrated on the sensations
of her hand in mine and the wall against my back. When I woke up, I
could still vaguely feel those sensations, and by closing my eyes and
focusing my awareness on them again I was able to return to the dream.
Second, if I wake up without being able to try the first method, I close
my eyes again, relax, and focus my awareness on the sights, sounds and
emotions of the dream I want to return to. This works erratically at
best, and sometimes there are strange obstacles - once I returned to my
dream world in the middle of a desert in front of a military bunker with
an electronic access pad, and I had to enter an access code to open the
door. When I quit trying to puzzle out the code and just "let the
numbers flow," the door opened and I stepped through into the dream I
was seeking.
Third, I've tried picturing a single object or person from the desired
dream, and when I go to bed I relax and mentally visualize that person
or object in as much detail as possible. Only rarely have I been able to
sustain the visualization through the "sleep threshold" or whatever you
call it, but when I've succeeded that object or person is there with me
in my dream (it may or may not be the exact dream I was seeking,
though).
Finally, once while in a dream I was able to create a doorway in that
dream which led to an entirely different dream - the dream I wanted to
return to. I haven't gotten to where I can have things appear out of
thin air in my dreams, but sometimes I can mentally command them to be
around the next corner or in the next room, and when I get there, there
they are. Unfortunately, of the many times I've tried to create a door
to another dream or reality, the door has only "worked" once (and I've
never been able to cross over to another person's dream, even though I
tried several times via agreement with the other person).
So, these are what have worked for me on occasion. Try 'em out and let
us know if anything works for you. If your experiences are more vision
than dream, you might need to experiment a bit with adjusting the
techniques, but I'm sure we're all pretty familiar with having to do
that sort of thing.

The process of awakening is quite literally a process of tuning into
the process of Creativity.
Beyond space/time We create Awareness/Life.
In the dream of space/time we merely act out this ancient instinct of
Ours,
through form.

Interesting evaluation, I don't know that anything can be brought down
to that cut and dry definition since kundalini is consciousness and
manifests according to the state and condition of the soul/awareness.
What are you scientific theories?

Gloria:
Creativity is a natural part of the awakening, and I do believe everyone
has to open up to allow that energy to manifest through his/her
consciousness. The keyboards for me were one, it didn't matter if I was
playing music or writing words it is the same exact function, and I do
believe every soul needs to open up so that soul urge can manifest and
bring down those inner knowings that so live inside of us and need to be
released.
It is rather like that sexual energy inside that has to become so
defined from higher frequencies that it naturally moves up and into the
brain. This surrender to the Christ self, allowing it full expression
and creation in the now, is really like releasing that energy into life.
Everytime we manifest this experience there is power also released, this
then is what it is about, isn't it really important that light manifest
in various ways, and isn't this how that kundalini expression can be
proved, by manifesting it, everyday in every action.

Bless your heart Dan.... You are not missing a dang thing - lighten up
and go with the flow, which I see you are doing now - I think you've
learned much more than you've given yourSelf a chance to see. You feel
this way about kundalini and the list here and you spoke your mind of
where you were in that exact moment. I think that is wonderful! It is
neither good nor bad, right nor wrong - it's just how you see it now.
And others and myself will write you what we saw and felt in that moment
in time after reading your words - so what? It's all part of the
process. This duality battle within yourself that you have projected
outwards to the list is perfectly ok and part of your Quest. I think
this is great and wish my Quest had began when I was your age - how lucky
you are! It is obvious from your responses back to others that your
mind is open - just doesn't get any better than that.
<<Do you believe I will learn more if I leave than if I stay?>>
It doesn't matter what any of us believes - what is it that YOU believe?
I'd personally like to see you stay.... I don't know how long you have
been on this list.... I do know that it has been a blessing to me and
many others. But that doesn't mean it would be for you too. For all we
know, your path may go in a totally different direction, which is
perfectly ok and will get you to where you want to be.
Whatever you decide, trust yourSelf that it is the right decision for
you. Just go with it - stay in the moment like you are doing, and
loosen up that watch!

This is one of a million side effects of kundalini, just observe it and

It depends on your framework. If you are looking at it from a typical
western outlook....
Then the answer is a simple No. I think I said it goes beyond either and
being above both it is not a part of either. If I didn't please forgive
me, I should have.
A much better and far more accurate way to define it would be to use a
Samkha (sp??) or Vedantan (sp??)view and then....
Knowing/intuition is a part of the mind but without my references at the
moment (and if I had them I'd have the correct spellings) I don't want
to go into the roles of the parts such as the budhi etc. that make up
the mind. The knowing comes from that part of the mind that looks within
and, in most people, is usually outside the volitional control of the
individual. But the mind here refers to something that follows, as a
part of the soul, from life to life. It is not a part of the brain, the
brain is the physical vehicle used by the mind during a given
incarnation and does not contain the mind, though it does house a part
of it.
Namaste,
Joe

I'm not gone yet.

I don't know if I experience K. I have similar experiences to
those others describe, but they are just lucid dreams. I experience pain
that that comes and goes, but it is just phantom pain.

My mind is closing for more than one reason. Read my "awakening."
I'm not sure I belong here.

I did not "awaken" until after I began to improvise on the piano.
I did not surrender much. I controlled. I fear surrender even more today
then ever before because today is a dark day for me. Read my awakening.
> Well that works for a while, but it does not last does it?
To be conquered by fear is to die. Logic must last or death will
result. What do you mean by last? I find logic to be taking greater hold
of me.
> Dear Dan It seems your mind is too obsessed with control.
Forgive me, but I have reason to remain in control. Read my
awakening. It will come soon.

I have experienced so much fear that I almost died. I have not
recovered yet.

I can do this, I think.

I have only experienced prolonged fear that I did not have the
time to experience and dissect because new things came to be feared.

I have become a child. I copied a child in Florida. I learned
what genius meant. I became a child again. I think I still am only with
less fear.
I do not generally experience fear in meditation. I am good at
meditating.

Thank you Ruth.

Oh. I spoke of lightening, not spine chills. My mistake.

I tried for a long time, but I was caught. Read my awakening.
I am experiencing blockage. I have not slept much. I realize I
am experiencing the symptom of a disorder by not sleeping, but I have a
little more work to do before I sleep.
