Dear List,
I would be glad to share this with you,
This last month my life has turned in a very strange direction. I was about
to just sign off this list and start living my new life but decided share
this.
This all started a few months ago. I had let go of my teacher for several
reasons where the main reason is that I had to find out if I could make it
on my own. I was of course unstable in the beginning, which was expected but
a month later I felt good. I decided to start with yoga again. This was
Monday evening. My perception widened and I felt just soo good Tuesday and
Wednesday. Just so fine. Wednesday evening I carefully did some yoga again.
And stepped over the edge.....
The best way to describe that night is white light pumping up the spine. I
did not have this before but now I know what people were talking about. No
sleep and white light no matter if I had my eyes closed or open. The next
day my energies were drained and by the evening I was really depressed. It
took a day until my energy started coming back and one more day to feel kind
of OK. But when it reached a level where I could ”reconnect to the universe”
I entered a state of delicate equilibrium and suddenly the energy hooked
onto emotions and I entered another sleepless night with a following
depression. And it just continued like this. Gopi Krishna described this
very well, I´ve had that book for years without really reading it and now I
read it in a couple of days.
I would compare this with having a bonfire where the fuel is only dry sticks
soaked in kerosene instead of logs. On - off, On - off. No balance.
As a last resort I started practising traditional karate. Mainly to get the
physical exercise. Two hours twice a week. And now the events took a very
interesting turn. It worked! I did start sleeping again. The light was there
but my body said ”rest” and at least I stayed in bed in a state somewhere
between sleep and awake. I slowly started becoming more physical and stable.
During a period of time I could notice myself changing day by day. Several
major changes occurred. I started eating meat again. I stopped reading
esoteric books. Instead I started wathcing TV and especially action movies.
No problem at work. No problem drinking alcohol. I´m talking about some
major changes in habits. I do still see auras but I simply don´t care about
them and so on.
In just a little more than a month my focus has changed completely. I have
heard someone describing the lower chakras as ”the place of the beast” and I
would say I really feel that I understand what he meant. I´m there. And
physically I feel real good. Now I sleep at night. No depressions. Positive.
Getting things done. People like me. And so on. But I can also look people
in the eyes communicating a very firm ” you don´t want to mess with me!” And
the ”I ” I used to know. Well I guess I am not I any more. That is the
strange part.
So what is this? I´ve been excessively interested in spiritual development
for more than five years now and it feels like this Karate training has put
an end to it. I´m just not used to being so physical.
And I´m wondering. Is this really the end? Will I find my way back to the
path? Does anyone have a similar experience?
The central issue for me now is if Kundalini will stop being active if I
continue with Karate.
Or is it the other way around. That this is the way to go for more people
that are not able to function in the world because of an active Kundalini?
And, if ”I” changed so completely. What happened to the former ”I” and who
is watching this happen? Who?
