Paths, places, sights, perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of Awareness. 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.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2001 Report Share Posted March 13, 2001 My Dear Friends, Again, l feel l should apologize for addressing you this way rather than individually anwering all of your responses to my plea for help. l haven't been able to be online much and am unable to answer all those who have made suggestions. l'm truly overwhelmed by the responses. lt makes me realize even more how much we are a community. We can disagree from time to time, but this reminds me of how much we are capable of opening our hearts and supporting each other. l probably should have been more specific when l asked for help.What l was most hoping for were natural remedies ( herbs, etc) that people had found helpful, in that because of k, l've reacted so adversely to medicines in recent years. This is why l haven't run to a doctor, as some have suggested, because the doctors l know can only prescribe medicines. The guy who did the acupuncture is an excellent MD, and he also advised me to avoid conventional doctors, saying they have no understanding of my condition. Some of you know that l've been struggling with side effects of k for many years. Over 5 yrs ago after intense energy work l became terribly ill and couldn't eat for 4 months, losing a whole lot of weight and thinking l was going to die. Altho l feel my process has progressed as a whole, certain debilitating effects have persisted, including: excessive stomach gas (especially at nite) and low back/buttock pain which has severly limited activites. The stomach stuff has slightly improved during this time except when my energy is overstimulated. l've learned over time what foods to eat and what my best comfort foods are when the energy's really moving. As l've stated in the past, l feel this subject of food is mostly an individual thing for each of us. What always works for me is soft bland foods, usually with a dairy component, such as cream of wheat, cream of tomato soup, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. When l consented to the acupuncture and energy sessions l mostly hoped it would benefit my back while not upsetting my stomach, because most energy work usually upsets my stomach. This work appears to have helped my back a little while upsetting my stomach a great deal! l did find one thing that seems to help with the gas, at least a little: DGL, which consists primarily of licorice root extract. l took some Sunday nite and it went better, and so Monday l thought maybe l was over the hump. But then last nite was bad again, waking up after a couple hours sleep and then continuous gas and belching for hour after hour, once again leaving me exhausted today with a very iffy stomach. So it appears the DGL, while helping a little, may not be enough. My sense of taste also feels like it's getting screwed up -- a foul metallic taste in my mouth which l've had before when my system went out of whack. l called my doctor yesterday and told him about the reaction. He expressed sympathy but said all the gas was a positive sign of movement of the energy -- and he wanted me to continue with my scheduled 2nd session tomorrow nite, saying he felt the best way to deal with this was to cut right thru it. l declined, saying l wanted to at least stabilize before trying more scaled back sessions. He was supportive, saying he understood how l felt after all l'd been thru over the years. He didn't have any other suggestions. l do respect this guy. He's studied energy and experienced it himself for many years. But l've learned the hard way that l can get into trouble by trusting anyone else to necessarily be right about my process. And now, one more possible factor. My upstairs has served as a Tibetan monastery since November. The monks are only here part time so far, usually 2 or 3 days a week. Khuten Lama is here far less than that, but when he is here it usually plays a little havoc with my stomach, as he is very powerful. l just found out he's coming with the monks tonite for 3 days ...... Your prayers and thoughts are welcome as always. love, jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
