Dear Jose,
Congratulations about the article! :)) Your experience certainly shows
that one shouldn't hesitate to intervene with medication, especially where
suicide is an issue!
Gradually the medical community is becoming educated in the close connection
between what we term mental "illness" and spiritual kundalini awakening. If
we fear the experience of expanded consciousness we are more likely to have
bad, "frightening" experiences.
It is interesting, though, that mankind throughout history has sought these
experiences through religious practices and through psychedelic substances.
:)) If we welcome the experience, the joy can be transcendent. I guess people
throughout history have put both negative and positive constructs on these
experiences.
I agree with both Mara and Kate that it is when we lose (or never had)
filters that keep us from merging into oneness, that it is often perceived as
pathological instead of the reverse --that those who filter out the cosmos are
losing a large part of their birthright.
Love, Hillary
