Hi Ricky,
I went and received Shaktipat from Anandi Ma several years ago. I went
out of curiosity because she comes through Denver, Colorado where I live
once a year.
Her energy is very sweet. Of all the living gurus I have met or read
about, she seems to be the most pure. I think she and her husband are
genuine too. This how I received her little paper book. I was also on
her mailing list for a year.
In her book, Practical Instructions for Disciples, she writes, "If the
tongue is stuck to the palate, release it by gently opening the mouth."
The pages are not numbered.
Her system is quiet and long and requires much more discipline and time
than I can personally ever come up with. Although mantra chanting can be
effective, I just don't have the time with my lifestyle of being a nurse
with a busy practice. I also don't do devotion to guru and religion very
well. :)
Glenn and I teach the short path, 90 days for kundalini awakening. Most
of our students begin feeling it in their initial class with us. If we
give you Shaktipat it can happen even quicker. People have to remember,
Glenn and I are Americans, and we like the short path. In fact, one of
the names of our system is the Lightening Path of Esoteric Yoga. People
do enjoy themselves on this path because it is playful, safe, and
effective and non-sectarian.
And if people's k is already awake, we can teach you how to smooth out
the process.
I hope this helps and no disrespect meant to Ma.
Namaste,
Susan

Hello. I don't know if I am doing this correctly or not. I'm new here.
I've been planning on introducing myself and will do that later. I just
wanted to jump on this while it was on my mind. I
was reading Susan's response to Feeling like s**t.
This is actually a question for Susan.
You mentioned the Sri Anandi Ma advises her students to keep their
tongues
down. I took shaktipat from Sri Anandi Ma back in 1991 and spent many
years
following her teachings, many retreats, etc. etc. Though after ten
years of
practice, I am no longer involved with the group, I am still very close
to
many disciples. I cannot for the life of me recall any mention of
tongues
up or down or any questions ever arising regarding the tongue. As a
matter
of fact, I just assumed the tongue goes up, because mine naturally does.
Which disciple handbook are you refering to? There is none I am aware
of
after all these years. If you can point it out, I can certainly gain
access
to it and see for myself.
My experience with her is that the process has been very smooth. I have
never heard of anyone having severe problems in relation to kundalini
until
after I left the group. She has always been there for her students,
even to
the point that you can call her at any time should problems arise. From
all
of the horrible things I've heard about other organizations, I can say
from
my experience, she has shown any signs of being anything other than
genuine.
I personally left, because there were interpersonal issues between
disciples
who couldn't seem to let go and just be (too deep to get into now).
Anyway, I'm just interested in seeing this reference as I have never
been
aware of it.
Thank you,
Ricky
