Kundalini rising

[lyubomir]

Hi nearing,

To explore the power of Kundalini you have to prepared your understaning of this energy, world, life, people and so on. It may sounds strange but before to have access to such a powerful information it should be sure that you will use it only for good.

If you are not very well informed and prepared with information, understandings about many things - I think it's impossible to undestand it.

Feelings in our bodies is something interesting but they are just like emotions.

I can recommend you to start with some exercises and search for Asian specialists in this area - because Kundalini is well-known there. I know about the Inner Smile, 6 heelings sounts, Opening chakras with breath and visualisation and so on...

And when you achieve some good results, don't think that you can everything

To control your energy - first you have to understand it and then feel it. After that you can achieve good results.

Best Regards,

Lyubomir

I have heard of Kundalini but never went deep into experiences like this thread. I now realize that I have had 3 instances in the past and would tell my Wife, who witnessed all 3, that they were "Cosmic Downloads". Each experience always involved me talking about oneness and that we are all connected. The first time, I started to get emotional as I spoke of growing up with the trees and then I began vibrating from the flow of energy, which was the most intense feeling I have ever experienced. I was floored, and my Wife was right beside me thinking I was having a seizure or something! The second time was as intense but I was less afraid as I had time to think about the first event, except this time the flow of energy felt like it was above me and there was this intense blue light that I could feel and sense but my Wife could not. The energy had pinned me to the bed and I was physically being pushed into the bed, sometimes I think that it was me who was pushing me into the bed and the energy was trying to pull me up! The third was when I was with my Uncle, a Medicine Man, as well as my Wife again and we were talking about oneness in preparation for our wedding and it happened again but I was able to control it better. Except one does not control this energy easily, it was more like I just changed the subject because it was too intense for that situation.

I feel like I can enter that state at will when focused on oneness and happiness, although I do not do this. My people would say that back in the day, we had members of the tribe that were called "gatherers" and they could enter this state and use it to manifest their needs, usually game or fish.

That's interesting, Imagift! Thanks for telling us. I used to call it the "icy/hot azure blue light" and had several experiences where it would enter into me.

I personally don't think one needs to turn to one spiritual path over another. I was raised Roman Catholic, then studied with a spirit filled Lutheran Church so filled with brotherly love anyone would want to join it, then studied with fabulous messianic Rabbi's, and devoured AW Tozer's works, Watchman Nee, EW Bullinger, and enjoy to this day studying with Pastor Murray of Shepherds chapel though I really have little use for buildings, it's the people that matter. I've read every work I could get my hands on regarding spiritual pathwork, light work, old ways, Tao, grimoires, and other sacred texts too numerous to count. I think it only matters that one is seeking truth and at the center a personal relationship with our Divine creatrix.

My whole life has been devoted to spiritual growth and knowing truth. At the center of it was an undying love for God and in that with my faults and failures, I have learned none is better or worse than any other. There is not one person I have ever met who deserves more love than any other, and that ever action we take we choose whether it is one done in love or absent of love. Nothing else matters.

I know of no other expert concerning my mind, body, spirit, soul than myself.
I'd rather make my own mistakes and discover my own mysteries.

Hi Nearing
about twenty years ago I was meditating, sitting/kneeling on a meditation stool while listening to Bhajans (Indian holy songs) All of a sudden my body started to gyrate, my fore head almost brushing the floor--- I knew I was not doing it-- then It rotated the other way.
Next my forehead felt as though it was being pulled at the third eye-- extreme itching on the scalp and a sliver of energy starting to move up the spine. I consulted a friend who put me in touch with another man--- he sent me a news letter published by the Kundalini foundation--- I had most of the symptoms.
I went out to the Third Eye ashram in India which had a God realised guru. (Dr Goel) I experienced states of bliss there and since as well.
He gave me shaktipat to control the movement of Kundalini--- the liberating force.
Shidis happened --- One time I was sitting beside a woman at my aunts funeral-- suddenly I was aware of energy flowing out my side.
I did not say anything but the lady who was a retired Nurse told me she had felt the energy.
To cut a long story short she was due to have a dangerous opp on her spine and at the pre opp check they could not find anything wrong with her.
Others were healed.
The advice is not to identify with these gifts or spiritual progress is stalled.
It is not a good idea to force start it.

Kundalini continues its journey within me.
It renews the nervous system so that it can accept a higher spiritual vibration

I have pasted in the foreword to an excellent book to be found on the link.
Amazon probably has it too.

Preface

Salutations to the Mother Kundalini the Divine Cosmic Energy! You are present in every existing being. You are the supreme knowledge, maya, intellect, memory and delusion. O Devi! You are the mind, the sky, the air, the fire, the water and the earth. Nothing is outside You. You are the Shakti of Shiva. Your Own blissful conscious form gives the shape of the world.

Kundalini Yoga is the most archaic form of spiritual sadhana practiced by Indian sages and saints to achieve Oneness with the Supreme Reality. Kundalini, the serpent power or mystic fire, is the primordial energy that lies sleeping or in dormant state at the base of the spinal column in all human beings. It is also the cosmic power in individual bodies. It is the spiritual potential of cosmic power. It has no form. But the mind has to follow a particular form in its initial stage. From this grosss form, one can easily understand the subtle formless Kundalini. Prana, ahamkar, buddhi, indriya, mind, nerves and all the five gross elements are all products of Kundalini.

Kundalini becomes active, when it is awakened. There are many methods to awaken the sleeping Kundalini, like Pranayama, Asanas, Meditation, etc. all such methods may sometimes lead to complications. One may also become a psychic patient. It can also prove fatal as one feels the urge to attempt suicide without any reason.

To awaken Kundalini Shakti, the safest way is to receive the grace of a blessed Siddha-Guru, who have already merged his identity with the Supreme consciousness, the Shiva, and have become one. When Kundalini Shakti gets active by a Siddha-Guru it automatically starts functioning. Kundalini becomes the master of jiva, whose goal is Shiva, the source of existence.

In this world, despite all that we achieve, we never feel contented and never attain permanent peace, happiness or bliss. Complete fulfillment is only possible when we realize our own self, when the Kundalini Shakti gets aroused in our bodies and the backward journey towards Shiva gets initiated, till one day, with the mercy of Kundalini, the jiva gets liberated from all the attachments with the world.

As this Kundalini Shakti is very powerful, no one else other than Shiva can control this Kundalini Shakti, when it is awakened. Under the guidance of a Guru, the movement of the Kundalini is controlled, the six spiritual centres get slowly pierced, the nervous system gets cleansed and the individual becomes transformed completely. He realizes his own Self at the sahasrara, the seventh spiritual centre and becomes One with the Supreme Consciousness, the Shiva. The main principle is that when awakened, Kundalini Shakti ceases to be a static power, which sustains world consciousness. Once set in movement, she is drawn to its other static centre in the thousand petalled lotus (sahasrara), by merging Herself and the jiva with Shiva consciousness or the consciousness of eternal ecstasy beyond the world of form. When Kundalini sleeps a man is awake to the world, when she wakes up, he sleeps, that is, he loses his consciousness of the world and enters his causal body. In this Yoga he passes beyond to the formless consciousness.

This is the glory of Mother Kundalini who through Her infinite grace and power gently leads the sadhaka from charka to charka and illumines his intellect and makes him realize his identity with the supreme Brahman!

Sadgurunath Shri Siddeshwar Baba was a God-realised Siddha-Guru. Thousands of seekers got their Kundalini Shakti awakened by His Divine Grace. He used to awaken the Kundalini Shakti by the divine touch of His right thumb at the Trikuti of His devotee and sometimes by His gaze. He had even initiated some sadhakas in their dreams.

The book on Kundalini enables aspirants and spiritual seekers as well as those interested in the phenomenon of Kundalini to understand the deeper implications of Kundalini awakening.

The first part of this book contains discourses of Shri Guruji delivered between 14 October 1992 and 15 March 1997 during the Meditation Camps held at Siddheshwar Ashram.

The second part contains queries from devotees about Kundalini Shakti and the answers/clarifications given by Shri Gurudev.

The book ends with salutations offered to the Guru who is established in knowledge and power, who grants both worldly prosperity and liberation, who has made it possible to realize Him and by Whom all this world animate and inanimate, movable and immovable, is pervaded.

I pray to Shri Gurudev and Goddess Mother Kundalini to shower Their blessings on all their loving children, so that Their inner paths open and their search for the final goal, the Supreme Truth, comes to an end, and they achieve birthless and deathless eternity.

Back of the Book

Despite being successful in life and having all the material comforts, individuals constantly crave for the feeling of complete fulfillment. This is only possible when we realize our own self and merge with the source of our existence. This journey towards Shiva (the source) only gets initiated with the arousal of the Kundalini, the primordial energy that lies in a dormant state at the base of the spinal column.

This book is divided into three parts. The first part contains discourses on Kundalini by Shri Siddeshwar Baba delivered between 1992 and 1997 during the meditation camps held at Siddheshwar Ashram. The second part contains clarifications given by Gurudev to the queries raised by his devotees and the third part offers salutations to the 'Guru' who makes the awakening of the Kundalini and the attainment of liberation possible.

This book will be of immense help to spiritual seekers and psychic sufferers. It will interest the lay readers who will gain solace and peace of mind with the knowledge of Kundalini, the liberating force.

Born on 25 March 1935, a post-graduate in political science and history and a doctorate in education, Dr B.S. Goel (Siddheshwar Baba) was chosen by destiny to be a yogi with the mission of unraveling to the people the deepest secrets of the Mind, individual consciousness and Cosmic Consciousness. At the age of 28 his Kundalini got awakened on its own. His uniqueness lies in his experience of classical psychoanalysis along with meditation, which he advocated and applied in the quest of the final goal: transcendence of the Mind and union with the Lord. On 3 October 1998 Siddheshwar Baba took Samadhi leaving behind his dedicated devotees to work for the Society of 'Third Eye Foundation of India' founded by him in 1982 to preach and propagate Indian culture, Yoga and spiritualism.

Thanks for that, Chris. I am enthralled at that notion that one can confer healing on to another just by virtue of having had this experience!

Have any other headings taken place?

Has anyone else had this happen?

Hi Nearing, I have used this energy many times in healing and breaking spiritual bonds, chords, and darts many have within their soul / spirit body. I have helped some on here as well. When I say "I have done this" it isn't really me doing it. I just open up my being to be able to share the energy with the person in need. I see their spirit and soul body and know things that there is no way I should know them about the person. When I do these kinds of works I ask permission to read them. I fully inform them that once they give that permission I will know everything that is pertinent for me to know to help them. If they consent then we begin.

I have witnessed huge physical lumps disappear while working in person with someone. I have seen miraculous changes in people's spirit and mind during sessions. I am always blessed to be part of it, and to me it's like getting to be a witness to something sacred happening between the individual and the Creator. All I do is help facilitate. I know instantly when speaking with someone when I quit communicating and the Holy Spirit / Divine wisdom begins speaking through me. This only happens on certain more personal posts and in more personal conversations I have with people in real life or say on skype. There is no time or space, there is only being when in that energy. We are all capable of it and called to be in it to walk in unity with one another, but well, we haven't gotten there yet.

Ramesh said of healing in general.

If it is the karma of the person, cosmic law, the will of God then healing happens.

I had one person who had a calcified spine and well bent over-- I put my hands on him and within a few minutes he stood up straight--- I was as surprised as he was. It also has worked on animals-- a horse was rejuvenated by the energy.
Lumps -- tumours have gone.
Obviously its not me that does it.
I dont feel drawn to do this now.

Dr Goel said "When Kundalini awakens its by the grace of God and you are in the taxi being driven home by Shakti. Enlightenment will happen in this life time"

So my take is that I dont use the energy, it uses me.
Its not always an easy trip as it burns of Karma and gets you into situation where the ego is reduced, though Its very easy to have the spiritual ego thinking "Im special" and that is a big deterrent to spiritual progress.

Desires go and with that all motivation--- so there can be periods of mild depression.
The ego is always wanting to do-- to achieve- to get-- that goes.
BUT it leaves a big vacuum to begin with.
It also leads to solitude--- friends dont understand that you have no wants or needs.
People come or go and there is no sense of loss.
The moment is now enjoyed but it does not have to be repeated there is no desire to do the same thing again.
If it does resurface its enjoyed afresh.
Its a strange place to be but thats ok.
Hope that helps.

Very wise words Chris, thanks for sharing them.

Hi nearing, thank you for this thread. The topic has been covered fairly well here already but I will add two things.

I formally studied kundalini yoga for many years under the guidance of an exceptional Sikh gentleman. I had been seeing him for 6 months when he strode into the room one day and announced "right, now you are ready to begin to work with kundalini". When I asked what I had been doing for the past 6 months he replied "preparing to work with kundalini". The power of kundalini is potentially infinite, and an uncontrolled rush has been known to fry neural pathways (eg kundalini damage is sometimes misdiagnosed as MS), or to compromise psychological integrity ("insanity") to name just two. So please, all who work with kundalini, be careful, and find a technique of excercising control over the energy that works for you.

This is a recent kundalini experience:

Whilst sitting outside meditating, my partner was invited to “step into the pool of stillness”. I decided to do the same. I envisaged a deep, dark pool and immersed myself within it. There were some intestinal rumblings as I relaxed into complete stillness. It felt good, and I gave permission for whatever would arise to rise.

Immediately, a deep, cold and initially frightening darkness arose. I did as I always do when confronted by fear, which is to acknowledge it as part of myself, merge myself with it, and shower it with Love. The fear waned, but the imposing darkness remained. I expanded my awareness to my infinite nature, and the expanse of dark became but a speck within me. I recognised that the darkness was the part of me that resides in another dimension, and while I have accessed those parts of me that exist in dimensions of light, geometric shape and vitality, I had never consciously visited this cold, dark, ponderous dimension. Probably because of the fear, though I was not consciously aware of it.

Upon realisation that I had accessed a previously unknown aspect of my hyper-dimensional self, my chakras quickly “lit up” in rapid succession from root to crown, followed by a kundalini rush of awesome power. In my study of kundalini yoga, I had been warned of the dangers of the uncontrolled kundalini rush, so used the tool I had been given to harness the energy without physical or psychological damage. The tool is to guide the energy as it exits the crown (novices should work to contain the energy within) so that it arcs down and joins with the energy entering the root. As I did this, the immediately perceived the image of a sitting figure, chakras alight, with fountains of energy from the crown and root joined and pulsing.

Kundalini is not sexual energy per se, but it consists of a masculine and feminine stream that can be united as an analogue of cosmic union within us (unity consciouisness). This is especially potent when the kundalini streams, and masculine energy taken in through the crown, and feminine energy taken in through the root, are united within the heart. The heart is the meeting place within us between that which is below, and that which is above. This is alchemy, the real transmutation of base stuff to gold, and the process to which chemical alchemy is but an analogue. When we perform this alchemy within ourselves, it is then we expereince pure, unbounded joy, and let us always remember that true joy can only ever be found by working with the light AND the dark.
