Subject: Is Kundalini Dangerous? A Macrocosmic view... Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Now I'm going to get off of the spiritual analysis and go more into a
scientific view of this question...
My belief is that Life is dangerous to those who fear. The degree that you fear is the degree of danger that life has for you.
Now in order to explain my reasoning to a level that won't completely
lose you, I have to go into a little detail.
Scientists have discovered an energy field that exists everywhere throughout the Universe. It radiates from every point in space, in all
directions, with no vibration. It is all the Same. This energy is called Zero Point Energy. It gets it's name since it does not have a vibration,
and thus exists at Absolude Zero, 0 degrees Kelvin.
This much modern science knows. However, from within the constricted view of Quantum Physics, which are now obsolete because of ZPE's
discovery, they cannot see the obvious conclusions which I have seen.
This energy exists all around us. However, matter has a special interaction with it. Matter absorbs a certain amount, which is currently
too small to measure, but the remainder of it actually creates the forces we know as gravity, time, centrifugal force, and the strong and
weak nuclear forces. This Zero Point Energy radiates all around us, and the sum total ZPE radiation of the entire Universe (more or less)
radiates on every single point in the Universe.
Now, atoms are mostly space. Some very small electrons very far away from the nucleus, and some larger particles making up the nucleus. The
ZPE that hits the electrons gives them the energy they need not to be overcome by the attraction of the nucleus and collapse. of the Universe, and we play whatever role in life we want to. However,
there are those that decide to use their power of perception to make life different than this "external world of science" that most
experience. And for each person it is a little different. That's why Caos can allow Science to explain why my life is different than yours.
However, it's simply that way because I created my life, and you created yours.
So, simply put, Kundalini is dangerous to those who believe that it is
dangerous, and danger happens to those who believe that danger is possible. To those how cannot conceive of danger, it never existed...
Whew...
Now that you've seen the totality of this so called reality, I'm tired
and am going to bed so that I can live in my dream world that is a lot less physical and a lot more fun. After all, my subconscious knows the

to those here i have touched:
who am i to question your answers or answer your questions?
if i love you i should tell you what i think,
what i feel and not what i think you want me to think,
want me to feel.
but who am i to love you so?
this is a busy-ness of words on your computer screen to be read, deleted, filed or ignored
i am a minuscule vibration in an infinite sea of light as you are to me.
but who is the light to love the other light?
let layers strip away to leave light
and an echo of time. let layers build again: heartbeat, sensation, emotion,
ideas of light.
but who is this echo to strip bear the light?
the light that i have touched has shown me love speaks the resonance of light
and light perceives the resonance of love and love and light heal the echoes of time.
who am i but an echo of time.

CHAOS
Infinity will inevitably lead to improbability
It is always the foolish and immature that wishes to be treated as if it is the opposite. When the condition
of the metal is known, then are the means to transformation also present. The catalytic nature of Our
Stone is dependent on the degree of refinement. The higher or closer the material, the simpler the
transformation. The realisation of perfection is through the
manifestation of imperfection. We assert source, action and effect, implying truth above knowability as follows:
1. Phenomena independent of causality 2. Events outside of time
3. Being without existence. The infinite can not be limited by existence, to be
beyond limitation must not exist. Infinity will inevitably lead to improbability. Verification is
internal, personal and unprovable but may be communicable through the creation of favourable conditions. We assert
that Deity is aware of deity and creates the conditions from which we may share this experience.
When seven merges with infinity it is the seven that gains. Infinity neither gains nor loses for it contains
all that is. The limitations of creation leads to limitlessness. The beggar wakes up to find he is a king
and in joy gives away all his wealth. The dream has become a reality.
The virtues of a substance are in that substance without recourse to another. Each substance is complete
and complemented by its relationship to another. From an understanding of the nature of substances the alchemist
attunes to a deepening understanding of all things. Through an understanding of the microcosmic we develop a
knowing of the macrocosmic. Your work and life contains the meaning and knowledge required; attend to it.
In a chaotic universe, the recognition and travelling in a pattern is dependent on the wholeness of
the chaos. The ordered universe is a construct from the myriad possibilities. True structure is chaos, yet chaos
contains structure. It is the evolution of the multiplicity to the monad that creates the substance of
its own past. The effect of its being is its own causality.
In our finitude with a vision of infinity, we evolve to a point capable of creating our own past and knowing
the route that has been taken. We know the route has been travelled for we are doing so. Due to the complexity of
the constructs we should be wary of truth as a constant stateable absolute for this is open to change. Change is
not that absolute either.

A Community of The Spirit
There is a community of the spirit. Join in, and feel the delight
of walking in the noisy street, and being the noise.
Drink all your passion,
and be a disgrace.
Close both eyes to see with the other eye.
Open your hands,
if you want to be held.
Sit down in this circle.
Quit acting like a wolf, and feel the shepherd's love filling you.
At night, your beloved wanders.
Don't accept consolations.
Close your mouth against food. Taste the lover's mouth in yours.
You moan, "She left me." "He left me."
Twenty more will come.
Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought!
Why do you stay in prison
when the door is so wide open?
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence.
Flow down and down in always
widening rings of being.
There's a strange frenzy in my head, of birds flying,
each particle circulating on its own, Is the one I love everywhere?

Harsha: Yes Jan. The dogs do not claim to be Zen masters. That is because
they are humble. You have overlooked that very important quality. And yes they
do not hit you with a stick. That is because they find it difficult to pick up
sticks (no thumbs you see).
Hah! You have obviously been hanging out with the wrong dogs.
Dogs are not Zen masters or humble - they are just dogs. Here is a simple test: throw a stick and shout "fetch". If the Zen Master does not bring the
stick to you he is a dog. If the dog (assuming normality) does not he is a Zen Dog (this is called Dogchen in Tibet).
I also have other tests for Gurus, Sufis and other lesser canines.

Wow! :) I was reading this, and in the middle of the poem I started wondering, like, I must have judged Lobster wrongly - this is deep,

What could have been another song entitled "Song of the
Wind":
"...Into the ears of the rose you whisper a secret whose meaning she grasps; often she is troubled--then she rejoices.
Such is the way of God with the soul of Man...you write your songs on the face of the waters; then you erase them.
So does the poet when he is creating...Are you the same frolicsome breeze that trembles with the dawn among the
leaves and branches and flits like a dream through the windings of the valleys where the flowers bow in greeting
and where the grass droops heavy-lidded with the intoxication of your breath?...
You rise from the oceans and shake their silent depths
from your tresses...Are you the selfsame gentle breeze that caresses the locks of children as the play around their
homes?...In the still night, hearts reveal their secrets to you. And at dawn, eyes open at your gentle touch. Are you
mindful of what the heart has felt or the eyes have seen."

It will come, perhaps, a still evening, fragile, a useless, majestical sunset
that no one admires, Deep and clear, the night will swallow it. To start
again the game at this point requires no renunciation.
There will only be the presence of memories, a lost lake at the back of the mind
and a veil of mist that does not blur the eyes; signals of nothing endlessly repeating.
The ford can be crossed with dry feet. Afterwards a ray of sun
that strikes the stones will reveal the voices.
Everything is known,
but so deeply it always astounds.
