I was drawn to this list through a series of synchronicity.....I joined the
list because I was looking for more information about k-awakening. I wasn't
sure at the time if I was k-awakened, and I wanted more feedback about the
process.
>
> 2) What do you like best about it?
The openness, intelligence and wisdom of many of the members. I like that
when you have a question, there's usually someone who knows the answer, or
at the very least can give information to help answer the question. I
appreciate that there's fewer list wars these days :) I enjoy the energy of
the list.

> 3) What do you wish were different?
More posting!! People don't seem to post as frequently these days.

> 4) Are you awakened? Share your story.
I am awakened. In early 2002, I was meditating in bed, just relaxing and
letting it all go. Suddenly my consciousness went to a place with a dark sky
and grey rock formations all around me, hills and caves and such. A great
wyrm came out of a cave and as I looked into its huge serpentine eyes, I was
sucked into the dragon's eyes and into its body.....Shakti devouring me.
Then a huge stone lingam rose from the earth, and the dragon/serpent/wyrm
coiled itself three and a half times around the lingam. Then it slithered
upward until it was standing on top of the lingam, breathing fire into the
sky. As it breathed fire upward, I felt an overwhelming rush of power,
strength, and k-fire. I had the sensation that I was expelling a huge amount
of negative energy from my body as the wyrm breathed fire. I had this
strange sensation of being all-powerful and infinitely strong..and it
unnerved me, so I came back to regular consciousness. Shortly thereafter, I
got some strange physical symptoms....throbbing/itching tailbone,
infections, what felt like swollen organs in my abdominal cavity, heat in
my lower body, insane sex drive. - couldn't switch it off if I wanted to!
Later that week, my friend and I were listening to the song 'Sister Awake'
by the Tea Party. I said, 'Sure makes the kundalini rise, doesn't it?' She
asked 'What's kundalini?' I said, 'I really don't know - I'll look it up on
the internet'. So i went to a search engine, found elcollie.com and
domin8rex.com and joined this list. My kundalini still goes nuts when I
listen to certain Tea Party songs.

> www.kundalini-gateway.org
A more detailed search engine for the archives. An engine where you can
choose 'any of the words' or 'all of the words in this order' or 'some of
the words'......you know. An advanced search engine! Its difficult sometimes
to wade through a hundred posts to find what you're looking for.
>
> 6) Are you a lurker or do you like to post? What value do you find in
each?
I lurk for periods, post for others. I lurk when I have nothing to
contribute or don't feel like sharing. I post for the opposite reasons. The
value in lurking for me comes when I need to pull my energy inwards - there
are times when the k-list inexplicably irks me. There have been previous
discussions about the group shakti sometimes bringing up heavy issues to be
cleared, and that's probably it. So when I feel that way, I lurk. The value
in posting is that I get to share my experiences and thoughts, or get to
ask/answer questions.

> 7) Are you on other lists? Which ones? What are your favorites, and why?
I am on the k-sex list. I was on k-goddess, which I believe is gone now. I
was on kundalini tantra, kundalini reiki, HarshaSatsang, k_foodfights. These
days I am only on this list and k_sex. The other lists I tried just didn't
jive with me. I really miss k_goddess, and wouldn't mind seeing it come
back, as I mentioned before. The k-sex list is nice.....but I'd like a more
intimate space where k-awakened people can discuss BDSM, fetish, kink,
role-play.....you know, the 'darker' stuff. For some reason, I don't feel
comfortable discussing these things much on k-sex.....probably because it's
a yahoo list with hundreds of members. If I'm going to discuss really
intimate, graphic stuff I'd prefer to do so in a smaller, safer space, I
guess.

> 8) Would you like to have regularly scheduled chat parties? When?
I'd love to!! Anytime of the month is good.....I guess weekends are better
for most. Later in the day is good too. Maybe once or twice a month?
>
> 9) What do you see as the end goal of the Kundalini process?
I really don't know. Being more or less permanently grounded, I
guess.....having inner peace. Enlightenment.
>
> 10) How do you define enlightenment?
Being grounded and at peace permanently.
>
> 11) How do you define self realization?
I don't. Self realization is a mystery to me. I've read lots about it, heard
lots of people talk about it.....but I don't fully grasp the concept. I'll
let other people define it here!
