When one who is unprepared steps off a cliff

the heightened fear experienced in the decent,

can be of considerably less consequence

than the sudden stop at the bottom.

Makes for a decent descent then. Or is it ascent ? :)

It might help to give the Spiritual Emergence Network (SEN) a call. They can

help your friend find a matching guide to help him learn from/work with/and

comfort the anxiety. I have had similar and very intense panic/anxiety

associated with my awakening and it has actually been a very important

teacher to me...by paying attention to it, asking what it is about and what

it wants to tell me about caring for myself, but not by trying to get rid of

it or ignore it.

 

though i am from the bay area, i believe the SEN is all over the country.

There is bound to be a practitioner affiliated with SEN in New York State.

 

Keep the faith. This too is for good.

 

kindly,

Up or down

Hello Greg,

I see you've received a # of responses and varied advice on this matter.

Here's one more bit of information that you can pass on to your friend. The

Healing Tao Center is located in New York. There is a book called Awaken

Healing Light Of The Tao that your friend could first peruse. In it there is

information about Kundalini gone awry and the ' prescriptive cure'; the

Microcosmic Orbit as taught by Mantak Chia or one of his trained

practitioners. Mantak Chia was the first to introduce Chi Kung/Qi Gong to

the west. According to the 'Taoist qigong or Chi Kung way' there is too much

'heavenly'/Heat/Yang energy coupled with , insufficient

'earth'/cooling/grounding/Yin energy. The Microcosmic Orbit is a viable

qigong method that does work for the problems associated with kundalini. It

is both stabilizing and makes the process smooth.

 

Love,

~jess

Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is Home. Home is

where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality of Eternal

Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously

arising from within into It Self. Welcome all to a.
