Hi All,

This was shared with a list that I am on. It was so beautiful that I must
share it with every list that I am on.

>THE OLD FISHERMAN

> Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of
>John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the
>upstairs rooms to out patients at the clinic. One summer evening as I

>truly awful looking man. "Why, he's hardly taller than my
>eight-year-old," I thought as I stared at the stooped, shriveled body.
>But the appalling thing was his face--lopsided from swelling, red and

>moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: "I could sleep in
>this rocking chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning."
>I told him we would find him a bed, but to rest on the porch. I went

The joy of sexual pleasure closely resembles the joy of kundalini rising.
In taoist yoga the first feelings of chi-recognition are clearly compared
to sexual tension. When learning the basics movement of ch'i from the
t'an tien down the belly, past muladhara chakra and up the spine, you
have to learn how to move the sexual tension up your body.
If, when you begin to feel your kundalini, you are distracted by its
similarity to sexual tension and you go have sex, and after orgasm allow
the focus to fade and return to a non-sexual (and therefore non-kundalini
aware) baseline you are losing the opportunity to develop spiritually.
Karezza is more than just orgasming without ejaculation - it is correctly
identify kundalini sensation and developing it into nirvanic joy instead
of sexual joy, it's closest relative in our everyday world. How well you
can feel aroused without acting on it will probably tell you whether you
need to (or could be) celibate during your practice.
Perhaps why the antique discussions always focuses on male ejaculation is
because "orgasm" was an historically much less developed reality. In
trying to tell people how to allow for the sexual intensity to build past
(and without) orgasm the most graphically clear way was to outline a
practice which denies ejaculation. I think that there is some
misinterpretation of karezza and related yogic techniques because the
texts are being read by very sexually aware students. We all know the
difference between orgasm and ejaculation, we even know theories on
different kinds of orgasm. Not nearly the same as the earlier cultures
who were documenting these techniques.
Why not discuss the female side? Probably because they were sexually
divided cultures, where the women were not reading about or practicing
advanced spiritual techniques. And, even if they were, it would have been
in terribly poor taste to discuss it. Hell, there may have been many
women high adepts, but no decent man was going to describe her sex life.
In Brahmin class India the men are often isolated from any women's
presence - how were they going to ever find out that women have orgasms?
Not open discussion - there was no Dr. Ruth then.

I am of course curious. Can you name the 2 Shaktipat Masters you have

Agreed! Thanks Marybeth, Freda! for the subject!!
I think this is a very important question and one which interests me greatly.
I think celebacy had a definite part in my "awakening." I have recently
become sexually active again. I suspect there will be no change in the amount
of K activity, but we'll see :)) My guess is that celebacy jump starts K, but
that it is unnecessary and has no real affect one way or another after the
awakening. Any other experiences??

All of this talk about awakening Kundalini by a Shaktipat master inclines
me to
issue a bit of warning to newbies who may think this is a great idea. From
my
own personal perspective, I would advise people to make sure that they are

emotionally balanced before seeking out such an initiation. A person
should have
done plenty of emotional work on themselves in order to harmonize their
phobias,
manias, victim mentalities, co-dependencies, attachments and aversions. If
one has
not sufficiently harmonized with respect to these things, Kundalini will
force you to
deal with it, and in a much faster and forceful manner than you may be
prepared for.
I certainly don't want to frighten the uninitiated, but this is a solemn
matter and not to
be undertaken lightly. Going for such initiation is not like going for
reiki training or
attending some new age self-improvement workshop. Once Kundalini has been
awakened, you have entered a one-way street, and there is no turning back
if you
find you don't like the experiences.

Personally, I was not initiated in this life. My initiation occurred many
lifetimes ago, and
as such it awakens of its own accord in each successive incarnation. So,
that is another
thing to consider: once awakened, it has forever been awakened and will
work upon you
until its ultimate aim has been achieved - no matter how many lifetimes
that takes. Pandora
cannot be put back in her box, or yours.

It is my observation that there are indeed people out there who are
evolved enough to
grant shakitpat, but who yet lack the depth of vision to fathom which
souls are yet to young
to deal with such power. It only takes an accomplished mystic to start the
process, but not
all mystics are awakened. Consequently, not all the "shaktipat masters"
can sufficiently see
the emotional baggage and karma that a person is carrying around. In my
opinion, that is a
requisite to granting shaktipat. I would not want to bear the karma of
such fools who tamper
with other people's Kundalini while yet being asleep themselves.

Finally, I would say that if you're going to go ahead and receive
shaktipat, you should know
ahead of time the anatomy of Kundalini and the meditations you must do
when (not if)
Kundalini tries to make a trip up just one of the channels.

Again, I have not stated the above to cause anyone fear of the process,
but it is one of the
truly pivotal moments out of a soul's multitude of incarnations, and
should be approached
with such solemnity and awareness of mind.

Just my opinion,

Ron Grimes

ROFL... Love the honesty of your e-mail. Speaking to this issue, I have had an observation
and a question that I dared not ask previously for several obvious reasons, but since the
issue has been opened, here goes...

Since my own K awakening in this life, and as the evolution of that energy increases, I
have noticed that my wife's orgasms continue to reach new levels, as well as do her
mystical states of mind during them. Any like observations by fellow Kundalites?

Thanks,

Maybe her kundalini is awakened too? Maybe it's contagious!

Ron,

To answer your question, I have had some of the same experiences. My last
boyfriend and I went to places I knew existed , but had never been. I went to
past lives with him and once I exploded into the universe and became this
golden essence and went to the great, great silent void. I became one with it.
I could hear and feel the silence. He did not go with me. I asked several of
my girlfriends if they had had the same experience and they did not know what
I was talking about. I have not been with anyone else since we parted ways. I
look at sex as sacred now.

I have been reading the posts on this list and I am very grateful to be on
this list and have had a lot of questions answered and have a lot of
information. I live in the Bible Belt and a lot of people here are too uptight
or closed minded to even think of Kundalini. So, this list is great for me. I
know that I have graduated the Jacksonville energy and will shortly be moving
to the West. I look forward to the move and believe I will find others that I
can discuss these topics with more openly. It really is hard to find people to
take it seriously her and to give you an honest opinion or answer.

Thanks again for the honest dialog,
Barbara

Not to worry. How much Shakti you receive (take) and how much you retain
really depends on the container (your body) you bring and your temperament.

Not much development, only a little will come to you. Lots of development,
lots will flow to you.

The Shakti is intelligent and gives each one what he/she needs.

Also, the Master removes any blockages at the time of initiation. You come
under the protection of the Master and the lineage.

Naturally it is always a good idea to research and study the Master and his
lineage and to use discriminating awareness.

My experience has been that Shaktipat has enhanced everyone that I've seen
get it. I'm not promoting it. It's a personal choice.

Worldly people blossom in worldly ways and spiritual people blossom in
spiritual ways.

I've never seen Shakti hurt anyone.

It's written in the scriptures that people who try to initiate themselves
by doing yogic practices irritate the Kundalini and usually have negative
results.

What Ron said about the flame staying lit once it's lit is true. It never
goes out. Ever. Watch out what you wish for. You might get it.

Kriyas bothering you and others around you?

Try chocolate and/or bananas.

For those who missed the instruction from the Vijnanabhairava on the
correct use of sex for merging with the Divine because it was at the bottom
of a Shaivism post, here it is.

Most of an individual's energy goes into digesting food and procreative
processes. People who are doing serious Sadhana usually eat light, easily
assimilatible foods and abstain from sex.

Its' a voluntary choice, not a requirement.

Then, all that energy is available for use in your Sadhana (your spiritual
journey).

Btw...newbies... once you start your Sadhana (spiritual journey), it never
ends. Ever.

People are warned in the beginning when they are thinking of starting a
Sadhana that once they start, they can never go back.

That is the big decision one must make, and a decision which happens way
before one finds out about Kundalini, Shaktipat, or anything else.

******

The Vijnananbhairava is 112 yogas for merging with the Divine catagorized
into 8 bases of yoga as follows:

1. Prana -- Here's where instruction on what happens to the ol'
     Kundalini upon awakening, etc.is to be found.

2. Japa (mantra repetition)

3. Bhanvana- creative contemplation

4. Sunya (void)

5. Experience of Vastness or Extensive Space

6. Intensity of experience

7. Mudras and Asanas

The instructions on the use of sex as a yoga are not in the Prana base with
the Kundalini where you would expect them. They are in #6. Intensity of
experience.

>From the Vijnanabhairava:

"Even in the intensity of sensuous experience, one can have the experience
of the Divine, provided one is careful to track the joy felt on such
occasions to its source.

"The first one is of the joy felt in sexual intercourse mentioned in the
verses 69-70. It should be borne in mind that this example is given only to
illustrate the intensity of experience in union. From physical union, one's
attention has to be directed to spiritual union. This does not advocate
sexual indulgence. The notes on these verses should be carefully read....."

"Sex is an example of the joy of intensive experience derived from Sparsa or
contact."

Dharana 46 Verse 69

"At the time of sexual intercourse with a woman, an absorption into her (1)
is brought about by excitement, and the final delight that ensues at orgasm
betokens the delight of Bhahman. This delight is (in reality) that of one's
Self.

NOTES:

1. This absorption is only symbolic of the absorption in the Divine Energy.
This illustration has been given only to show that the highest delight
ensues only at the disappearance of duality. Sivopadhyaya quotes a verse
which clarifies the esoteric meaning of this union. "Just as being locked
in embrace with a woman, one is totally dissolved in the feeling of
one-ness (unity) and one loses all sense of anything external or internal,
even so when the mind is dissolved in the Divine Energy, one loses all
sense of duality and experiences the delight of unity-consciousness. The
Sruti (scripture) speaks of the union with a woman only to illustrate the
union with the Divine. It is only a fool who takes this illustration as an
injunction for carnal pleasure.

2. The delight is that of one's own Self. It does not come from any
external source. The woman is only an occassion for the manifestation of
that delight"

DHARANA 47 Verse 70

"O goddess, even in the absence of a woman, there is a flood of delight,
simply by the intensity of the memory of sexual pleasure in the form of
kissing, embracing, pressing, etc.

NOTES:

Since the sexual pleasure is obtained simply by memory even in the absence
of a woman, it is evident that the delight is inherent within. It is this
delight apart from any woman that one shoud meditate on in order to realize
the bliss of the divine consciousness"

*******

and..... for the Musicians in the crowd:

Dharana 18 Verse 41

"If one listens with undivided attention to sounds of stringed and other
musical instruments which on account of their (uninterrupted) succession
are
prolonged,(1) he will, at the end (2) be absorbed in the ether of
consciousness (and thus attain the nature of Bhairava)

NOTES:

1. The resonance of musical notes lasts for a long time and being melodious
it attracts the attention of the listener. Even when it stops, it still
reverberates in the mind of the listener. The listener becomes greatly
engrossed in it. A musical note, if properly produced, appears to arise out
of eternity and finally to disappear in it.

2. When the music stops, it still vibrates in the memory. If the yogi does
not allow his mind to wander to something else, but concentrate on the
echo of the music, he will be absorbed in the source of all sound, viz;
Paravak, and thus will acquire the nature of Bhairava."

Pretty cool....

  Well, sure. You are sending K-fire up her spine.. sex is a fun way to
Shaktipat. I think that is part of the reason for the ashram scandals..
folks don't understand.
  In fact, one source of my abundant energy, is the many unknown fellas who
pleasure themselves while looking at my pix.. they are casting spells on
themselves with their fantasies of submission, to send their sexual energy
off to my purposes. I have a spell set up to redirect the energy up to
Goddess, and She repays it back to them.. I get some of what comes back down.
  It was not my intention, to be fueled by my advertising, in that way..
but after a while I realized that it was happening, .. partly from men who
were calling me up to tell me so, after taking a year or more to gather the
courage to do so.. seems my higher self shows up to accept the offering..
and when I figgered out the side effects my photos were having, I set
structures in place to take care of the transaction, for the good of all..
so some fellas are growing by shaktizap via erotic fantasy. Go figger..
    Blessings, Mystress.
