I'm not a bible thumper... I very seldom quote a verse... and I realize that
there are many here who have other beliefs and other cannon.. but I'll try
to demonstrate the relevance here.

( i didn't even bother to look this up and see if its quoted correctly..
cuz it doesn't matter) but there is a verse that goes something like this:

And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned
against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have
sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.
Jeremiah 33:8

I'm not harping on anyone's "sin" ... please don't anyone take this
personal. But the simplest definition of "sin" is to turn away from
knowing... no mentor, teacher, guru, shaman, prophet, God or Goddess.. will
tolerate that for very long.. they will simply let you go your merry way
until the day of reckoning.

The point is this.. Kundalini is a cleansing process... if I understand it
correctly. Forgiveness and restitution are not the same thing. Just
because someone forgives a bad debt... does not mean the account is
re-opened for further abuse.

This "cleanse" can be a very rigorous and painful ordeal sometimes...
You take a dirty white garment.. immerse it in washing machine... dump some
pretty caustic stuff on it.... thrash it vigorously..
move to an extremely hot environment... and tumble it around for another
while... (or expose it to the elements and let it flap in the breeze ) and
then you take it out.. and walaa... its cleansed.. magically. And
now it is finally ready to be "re used."

Sometimes it can happen more gently.. but that's not the point.

This process of justification lets no one off easy... and pain has purpose..
imo. No need to be masochistic about it though.. it happens well enough
naturally.. but i think we should understand that paying the price should
be seen as a privilege.. not as a burden.

"Insanity is loving sin"

Go with the flow.. :-)
