> Dear Hillary, List
> coming back from holidays I found a lot of great stories about the age of
> kundalini awakening! And now I like to tell again my awakening because
I've
> not found many stories of k from yoga practising.
> I'm 49 and I have been practising yoga for 6 years but, even before, I
loved
> a lot to study dance and gym in different ways. I'm never been able to
stay
> still. My main job is archaelogy and so, I had the tools to study about
> religions history and particulary egyptian, greek and roman religion and
the
> ways on which antique deities were rappresented. I saw movements
everywhere,
> from the lotus flowers growning to the ancient dancers and snakes carved
on
> the reliefs.
> When I found Iyengar yoga I understood this was my path and I begun to
> practise every day; now I have half an hour of pranayama in the morning
and
> 1-2 hours of asanas in the evening. It is a lot of time as I'm not yet a
> yoga teacher and I have an other full-time and non relaxing job, but, I'm
> never been so happy before!
> At the beginning of May, I was practising asanas on my own, as usually in
> the evening, and I felt this new movement in the bottom of my spine. It
was
> an unforgettable feeling! From this moment, I felt K reising until the top
> of my spine, between the neck and the brain. But I never felt K going
upper
> than the top of the spine.
> I started to try meditation after yoga practising. Sometimes, from the
neck
> the feeling becomes wider and paceful, sometimes I feel only the K reising
> and it is very burning.
> None of my yoga teachers really believes me. I spent two weeks of holidays
> in an intensive yoga practise and I said to the teacher these effects of
> yoga but he said it was only an energy awakening and this cannot be called
> Kundalini. I don't know and I don't care of it; I thought it was correct
> make my teacher known about the results of his teachings on my body and my
> mind.
> I'd like to know if someone in the list had the same experience, starting
> from practising asanas. It might be interesting because really a so rich
> teaching like Iyengar Yoga is not widely known for K-awakening.
> The week later my first experience i was so lucky to find your list!
> Love
