  Well, the reason for that is very simple. The computer looks at the
header of your post to see who you are, and the address it has subscribed you under:
>lalouettATnospammj.org.za .. and the address in your header are not the same. So it cannot find you.
  Since apparently your mailaddress has changed, I will unsub you.. I usually try to avoid doing that, as it is about 80x more difficult for me
to unsub someone, as it is for them to unsub themselves. Let's hear it for automatic systems...
  However, you were given an address to make such complaints to, and the posting address ISN'T IT!! Be friendly to the list traffic, please. Happy

Chris Hughes gave details on an excellent book called "Third Eye and the Kundalini." This book gives an excellent account of one man's experiences with Kundalini as it progressed through his chakras to the Crown Chakra, thus the sub heading of the book "From Dust to Divinity." This is actually the second book in a series of three on his story. The first is the one I referred to in my postin earlier called "Psycho-analysis and meditation - (The Theory and Practice of Psycho-Analytical Meditation)" by B.S. Goel ISBN 81-85082-03-0 Third Eye Foundation of India.
It may be possible to find it on sale in good metaphysical bookshops without having to order it from India. Two weeks ago I saw 'Psycho-analysis and Meditation' saw it on sale in Cosmic Pages, Adelaide, Australia, so I'm sure there must be bigger and more diverse bookshops in USA and UK etc.
True this information may not be of value to k-list members who have awakened kundalinis but there are many of us who have not, and yet realise the immense value in understanding and supporting the whole process. Soul awareness takes us away from individual purpose to group purpose and ultimately the evolution of the whole of humanity.
In light and Love

Wow! didn't think anyone else had such experiences.
Ed :-) --------------
-> Has anyone else had experiences like this, and can anyone tell me which
chakra they may relate to? Very often, I'll be thinking of something, and in that stream of thought there might be a particular word e.g. "water". Say I
switch on the TV or just change channels - immediately the word "water" is spoken by someone on the TV. The words are usually not ones that arecommonly
used. Or another example - I'm listening to some music and reading a newspaper at the same time. On the record is the word "taco" - that same instant I see
the word "taco" in the newspaper. This isn't exaggeration. Another time I was thinking about an account of a Gulf War prisoner who described his Iraqi
captors as all having Saddam Hussein-type moustaches. I switched the TV on and the
first thing I saw was a woman TV presenter wearing a false moustache. Philip K.

Harsha writes: Yes, I had said that for many aspirants Anahata is a good
place to start as it is safer and allows for gradual unfolding. However, there are no universal rules. People have different inclinations which are natural
to them. Those who practice pranayama (under guidance) may find it useful to combine it with concentration and meditation on the Manipura and Ajna. As I
mentioned in my paper (at the Kundalini home site), Kundalini is more easily awakened with meditations on Ajna, Sahasarara, Manipura etc. Sometimes
aspirants start with muladhara and work their way up (meditating on each center for several months). When I was initiated, my Gurudev told me to make
my primary meditation on the Sahasarara. I enjoyed meditating on all the centers and exploring their energies, but spent more time with Sahasarara as
that was my primary aim. Ultimately I realized that there is a Reality beyond all the Centers which transcends Superconscious states, all thought and doubt.
Where ever we start and where ever we meditate, we are bound to end up in our own Self, the Eternal Being. May we all become true devotees of the Lord of
Life and obtain his grace and mercy. God bless everyone with all that is best in life.

Subject: Psychic Synchronicity II Message-ID:
Content-Disposition: inline
Hi!
     Thanks to everyone who answered my question. The rationale I myself tried to use the experience is this - an intelligence is hiding behind reality, and
it's aware of us. It's vast in categories of time and space (God in other words I suppose), and feels an affinity for us due to the fact that we too possess
intelligence. And sometimes it likes to make its presence felt to us personally by dropping little synchronistic hints. If anyone's familiar with the writings
of Carlos Castaneda, he writes of a force called "Intent", a factor that sorcerers need to be able to call on. But first they need to strenghten and
clean their link with Intent. But how do we do this with the synchronistic factor? I suppose a strenghtened link with the synchronistic factor would be of
great advantage, especially since it would permit you to be ahead of your environment in special ways. But are there techniques which might help, other
than prayer and so on - how do we build a relationship with this thing? Tom

To: Kundalini-lATnospamexecpc.com Subject: My friend
Message-ID:
Hello list. I rarely post, but I'm sitting here emotionally exhausted and feeling so helpless in my efforts to help my friend and neighbor. She is an 84
year old woman whom I've gotten to know over the years quite well. She comes to my home nearly every day for companionship. Her name is Mary, and she's
become a part of my family. She has no other family here...her only son lives nearly 500 miles away.
The problem: Something happened to her last friday. Something physical that
took part of her mind, like a stroke or something. I've been very concerned for her welfare and her health, and yesterday she had heart failure and was
taken to the hospital. That's not the problem, I've been begging her to let me take her to the hospital for nearly a week. The problem is that yesterday,
when I was alerted to the fact by a friend of hers that there was a problem (mary had fainted while talking to this other friend on the phone), I dashed
over to access the situation, and she broke down and started sobbing that she didn't want to die, she wasn't ready to die. At that moment I knew I had to
calm her before dialing 911. So I did the best I could. Her other friend showed up within minutes which helped cause she dialed 911 while I talked to
Mary.
In the midst of this horrible situation, I was at once relived that she was finally going to the hospital, yet I had this funny vision of this little old
woman with angels pulling her by both arms and there she is kicking and screaming, "NO, I'm not ready, I don't want to go!"
I want desperately to help ease her fears of death. Her fear drove her to near
hysteria yesterday. I'm searching the depths of my soul for just one statement that might bring her some comfort. I'm trying to open myself for the guidance
to have the right words flow at the right time. I prayed for that yesterday. But my purpose for posting here is that maybe there aren't any words to do
that. Maybe opening my heart and trying to envelope her with love would be enough. Maybe it can all be done through listening and loving.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Mary tunes out religious talk. She just
doesn't want to hear it. I want to tell her how beautiful things are going to be for her once she passes on. I don't want to see her die with fear in her
heart.
Blessings Pam

I am Buddhist, too, as well as Christian.
The difference here is more than a difference of specific paths. It's the night-and-day difference between a negative path and a positive path.
On a negative path the seeker tries to clear everything out of herself to
make room for God to come in and fill the space. When you were listening to your ego screaming as you denied it and pushed it down, it tore at my
heart. It is NOT necessary to do such violence to yourself. You can take a positive path - turn and reach for the goal with everything that is in
you.
The Shadow is nothing but all the parts of yourself that you deny and push down into the unconscious. The more you push down, the bigger and more
threatening the Shadow becomes. Whatever you do not admit into the conscious light lurks and grows outside the circle of the light, outside of
your conscious awareness and scope of control, and will appear in you or outside you, in the events of your world, perhaps with uncanny effects.
Better to know what is in you. Better to accept all of yourself, dark and
light. Better to love and embrace and heal all of yourself. And then in power, shoot for the goal!
>It's great to cut corners,
An active path, like Vajrayana, does not "cut corners," it actively pursues
the goal with passion, great force of spirit, and deep sense of purpose - it is direct and in most cases faster.
>but we need to remember where we're going.
Always - until we get there. Then we need to remember where we have been
and turn to helping others.
Love, Ann

Thanks Danijel. This is wonderfully different view for me. Almost a paradox how this is true, yet also somehow different. For me all the chakras are so
connected. Like a holograph - break off a peice and the whole image is contained in the small peice. Was it Shri Angelique who notice that we can do grounding
from within the heart? You can locate everything inside the heart including the root chakra.
Does it seem easier to focus the awareness on one part at a time? Is that why
this approch works so well for you?
Life does not always work that way. We walk arround with all our chakras spinning in their different ways taking in beauty. Experiences are effecting us
all over. Its not always linear vertical. This garden of words that we now interact is a good example. When you came in with your first post it was like
the warmth of a thousand smiles inside. Do you think we are interacting through words alone? Can you feel the tranquility and wisdom of Harsha or the tenderness
and detachment of Gloria. This is more than the ideas they put on your screen. It is a flow of love beyond any trivial concepts.
Many people now are noticing synchronity. We are all becoming more conscious.
More aware of the interconnectedness of all things. Two events in different points in space are seen as part of the same phenomena. Some times this occurs
accross time as well. De ja vue. As my teacher said, "Time is only a concept to measure eternity." Now time is a part of the creative perception of our
reality, but sometimes in surprising ways we find ourselves peaking through the illusion. The yoga sutras take of a siddhi for knowing past and future. Why not?
They are all happening simultaneously.
Much Joy. Love,

;))))) Quite poetically said, but only partially true. All of the chakras can indeed be found within the heart... on the lower level. But, less known
part of that story - and that is because only few have managed to raise themselves above anahata 5 - is that the heart can be found within the
throat (visuddha 6), and the throat can be found within ajna (ajna 7). When I say that compared to these centers anahata is nothing, I mean literally
that. For instance, some of my students have extremely strong anahata or ajna activity, but _none_ of them is above mani-pura 4. Activity of the
chakra's ksetram (radiating area) doesn't mean anything here. It is more like the dimensional range of the personality. The depth of consciousness.
>Does it seem easier to focus the awareness on one part at a time? Is that why
>this approch works so well for you?
I don't seem to understand the question? I get the feeling like we are talking about completely different things here. I am not talking about some
new age abstraction here. There is no theory whatsoever in what I am describing here. Pure facts, universal facts. If one gets his/her systems
cleaned up, it all comes to that, everything else is just surface texture, no significance whatsoever in the long run.
>Life does not always work that way. We walk arround with all our chakras

Now think again what I meant by vertical. ;))) Hint: Mystress here got it perfectly. ;)
