Subject: [K-list] Am I too young for Kundalini?
From: Jon-Carl Lewis
On 1999/08/31 08:59, Jon-Carl Lewis posted thus to the K-list:
I was just reading Elizabeth Haich also, and really felt like I finally understood where I was going in my spiritual life: embodiment of the wonderful energies of the universe in this body.
But then I was reading some other things, some of which brought comfort, some not.
I was reading Barbara Hand Clow's Liquid Light of Sex and realized that there is great wisdom perhaps in waiting until 40 -- or maturity -- before starting to play with the energies of Kundalini.
what I found comforting was that now, in my thirties, is a time I can use exploring my sexuality and really enjoying it so that I don't miss it when I give it up later. Or if I'm fulfilled enough not to crave it later.
I wonder if some of the people having sexual entity encounters just haven't had enough of what I call honest sex, i.e. sex which is appropriate for the body in which we have incarnated at the appropriate time.
I think that many Westerners don't have honest sex very often, if at all (I am speaking as a formerly repressed, celibate closeted gay man) and I wonder if that doesn't cause problems when the Kundalini tries to arise through our puritanicalized thought processes and fatty, stiff and un-exercised Western bodies.
What does any one think?
Is thirty-three too young to start, or should I just keep getting laid?
Blessings to all.
Hetairos.
