Hmm, this will certainly be an overstatement, but as I continue to read the
posts on movies, I keep reading between the lines and seeing that it is the
opinion of many listers that all psychic phenomena are a product of the
kundalini energies. I tend to disagree, but would like to hear others'
comments.
Also, yesterday, I tried to find Robert Turner, psychiatrist/k-counselor in
S.F. on the web - found a few articles by him, but no way to track him down.
Interestingly enough, the dogpile search engine took "robert turner
psychiatrist san francisco" to 10 search engines, and 8 or so of them came
back with a website for Katherine Kurtz (author) and her Deryni series. It
is a fantasy/fiction work set in feudal times - the deryni are a race of
natural magicians much like the young magicians at hogwarts in our day and
age. But there is generally much persecution and mistrust of these
'deryni'. (I read these 12-16 years ago or so - forgive the inaccurate
oversimplifications, all ye hard core deryni fans - eek!) Anyway, it got me
to thinking about something I can't help wondering about when I read a lot
of these posts, and just in my life in general. But before I gewt there, I
would like to propose this poll (which I'll repeat in a separate post):
How many of us were into reading fantasy, sci-fci, even 'occult' books as
youngsters?
I wonder because I see and read of so many people trying to produce
experience X (or experience K). They think they need all the symptoms, or
matching symptoms, or whatever. In truth, from my learning and reading and
experience, I can't imagine any 2 kundalini experiences EVER being the same.
Each of us are a unique set of knots when the process starts, and that
deternmines the nature of the experience. Like a volcano, k builds up
behind blockages, spurting fire and molten rock (that's us) around the
edges. Depending on the viewer's viewpoint, i.e., where/which chakra their
dormant conciousness or sense of self primarily occupies, the volcano gives
some people wriggly vibrations, other people see the sparks, other people
the heat of the lava in their bellies and so on. The experience of blowing
through any major blockage may be more universal, but again, a lot depends
on where you were when the eruption started and where you end up.
It also seems very easy to become attached to manifestations of kundalini
energy. If you have to see it to beleive, you don't believe. I know,
because I have been addicted to manifestations of psychic energy, which
result was a diagnosis of mania. Not accepting the wave with grace, or just
riding it, but getting caught up waiting for the next one, wanting to be on
the highest wave, wanting the fastest breaker. I was the waves all along,
each and every one, and I thrust myself into a frenzy trying to encompass
each of the waves in my conciousness.
Wow. Is any of that real? I dunno. Just a spark.
