Subject: Re: [K-list] Artificial light and spontaneous awakenings
From: Glass Abstract

It seems likely that artificial light is an influence
in spontaneous awakening, since light and the pineal
glad are so closely related. Yet theres alot of other
factors to consider such as the modern context of
time, how social beliefs have changed, how spiritual
concepts have been marginalized over time and so on...

I, personally, have never had a spontaneous awakening.
I do feel the energy rise up my spine when I focus,
and just allow it to happen, but it's never been
particularly painful, or even eventful to say the
least. It's funny, because everyone talks about
Kundalini as if it's like getting hit in the face.
*shrug* Perhaps I have not experienced full awakening
yet-- who knows? is this common and what constitutes
full awakening?
I consider it to be a natural flow that's cumulatively
enlightening, and is can even be gentle as long as it
is respected. Of course alot depends on personal
blockages as well, and what the individual needs from
their K experience. But I don't think K always has to
be such a B*tch-goddess :)

Hm, so I guess we have pretty much the same question,
Rachel :)

Thanks :),
