Hello,
My name is Caio Rossi, 33, male, and I'm a new member, from São Paulo,
Brazil. My background ( briefly ):
Brazil is a very "New Age" country, and one of the most popular religions is
Spiritism ( Allan Kardec's ). We also have this gnostic tendency of
believing all religions are right, in some way. I grew up in a family with a
spiritist background, although we were not really active members of any
group. My experiences "with the paranormal" started when I was 12 and
started doing "practices" to provoke out-of-body-experiences. I reach such a
level of relaxation and "bioenergetic" control that I could get my limbs
completely numb at will and cause what OOBEists call "the vibrational
state", when you feel an energy wave up and down your body.
When I was about 16 I saw a ball of light coming from the sky but then I had
a "missing time experience". I was in the yard, but my father said he'd
looked for me but couldn't find me there, although, to my knowledge, I'd
never left the place. That was a long time before "abductions" were ever
heard about ( at least here in Brazil ).
Something similar happened about 6 months ago: I was coming home, just a
2-minute walk from it, listening to my discman and thinking about going to
the gym when I heard a humming sound on my right. I turned around, supposing
it was a car engine muffled by my earplugs, and then I saw what appeared to
me as a falling star hitting the ground like 200m from where I was. I could
hear the bang on the floor and I immediately blacked out. I recovered my
senses feeling something right above me. As I looked up, I saw a flat
luminous red triangle, like a Flash animation, flying toward a building and
fading away.
Due to my first experience, I had assumed it had something to do with UFOs,
but my readings ( Gilda Moura, a Brazilian psychologist specialized in
abductions, who wrote a book comparing the kundalini awakening experience
and supposed "sequels" of contacts/abductions/ Jacques Vallee/ Sanella/
Jung, etc ) convinced me that it was not the case. And, BTW, how come aliens
can fly a FLAT ( leaf-like ) red triangle??? :-) In fact, I've never seen an
alien!
Not only have I lived these intense experiences, I also have other
indications of a kundalini awakening:
- I sometimes develop a "swollen" forehead, sometimes displaying a dark
triangle over the "third eye", just like described by Rich at
Kundalini-Gateway;
- My spinal cord feels like burning, and that heat spread around in my back
and sometimes my arms;
- I've been experiencing, for the last 3 years, sudden changes in mood
been on depression medication too because of that );
- My mind goes from extremely slow and confused sometimes, to a real
"sponge", assimilating and processing information very fast and without
control ( I read many books at the same time, think a lot about them, and
analyze everything all the time );
- I'm sometimes extremely and uncontrollably ON ( like lately ). I need sex
very much, but ejaculation does not satisfy that need.
- I almost forgot: I ALSO have this terrible and unexplainable rhinitis
(sp?) and a "clogged" throat. ENT professors have tried to help me, I have
had my throat taped, I went to the best speech therapist in Brazil, had two
surgeries ( the sept: they fixed it assuming I might be over-reacting to the
lack of air, although the last surgeons said that sept deviation did not
explain my difficulty to breathe and my "clogged" throat ).
I could go on with the list, but I think that's enough. I've looked for help
at a Tibetan buddhist center ( Nyingma Tradition ), but to talk to their
residing lama I'll have to travel to the south of Brazil, where he lives
Chagdud Rinpoche ).
Has anyone else here experienced the "UFO-like lights"? And how about the
solution? Do you think Tibetan buddism is a good option? I'm a René Guénon
reader, I like Advaita-Vedanta very much, but I haven't approved of the
so-called Vedanta center I visited ( Ramakrishna Mission ), with all due
respect. It's just not the Advaita-Vedanta I met and enjoyed in Guénon's
books. Tibetan buddhism seems to be the one closest to it, due to the Tantra
tradition it has absorded. Do you agree?
Thanks a lot,
Caio Rossi
