No, you are wrong in your generalisations - I totally relate to what Jerry
is saying and I've heard many others say that they have had to reduce
meditative practice as it apparently has created adverse affects.

And how do *you* know all this?

I don't think Jerry was trying to reinvent Kundalini here.

Yes It is good that you use quotes like these as your own words are not very
impressive at all.

For you, maybe.

Just wondered, do you feel the need to 'control' most things in your life?

By the way what meditation brings you to this state of 'inner-knowledge'
that you have - does it inolve sticking your head up your own ass?
