Subject: [K-list] re sensing energy question

On 2001/05/16 11:27, Mark Otter posted thus to the K-list: Hi Jon,
I am a bit of a lurker here, but thought I would pop out of the woodwork
to respond to your question. One exercise to try is Mystress
Angelique's centering meditation here
http://www.list-server.net/kundalini/med.html I find it very powerful
and do it whenever I find myself with a moment to spare and to reconnect
with myself.
Another exercise I've been doing a few years now with interesting
results is picturing in my mind's eye the chakras (one by one, starting
at the lowest one) and imagine energy flowing through them as I
breathe. What seems to work for me is to imagine the energy flowing in
from the front of my body as I breathe in and from back to front as I
breathe out. I do this several times at the muladhara chakra (the root)
until I can feel it pretty clearly, then I move to the next one, and
repeat, going all the way up to the crown chakra and then once I could
feel the energy in each one, I see if I can feel all of them
simultaneously. I think the first several times I tried this, I wasn't
sure I felt anything but I did it anyway. Now I can feel the energy
quite distinctly and can sense when one or more feel particularly
constricted. Having them feel open is a wonderful feeling. I just now
noticed that when I do this energy movement, I have a sense of being
open to love. It's quite a sweet feeling. (yum) I learned this from a
kundalini yoga tape, which had other exercises as well. I lost the tape
shortly after listening to it the first time, and I suspect I will find
it again when I am ready for the next exercises, so I do recommend
taking it slowly and allowing the wisdom of the shakti to guide you.
Hey, best of luck and love,
Mark
