Guest guest Posted January 6, 2000 Report Share Posted January 6, 2000 Hello, This is my first day as a member of the list. Besides keeping my heart pure, meditating, and reading spiritual literature; can anyone suggest how to begin my Kundalini Rising process. This feels like the intended next step in my spiritual awakening. Any and all comments will be greatly appreciated.

Blessings and Love to all, Steve >> Dear Steve: Welcome and Blessings in your new search in this new century. My first act of advancement would be to drop the Christ_Yogi moniker. That would be the best act of actual spiritual humility. Many people might tend to believe that otherwise you had pretensions or aspirations of personal spiritual superiority. These are the most wily of pitfalls awaiting the sincere student. Just as the true Tao is the Tao that cannot be named, so too, the true Master of spiritual experience is the one that appears the most humble...not falsely humble, but simply acts and appears outwardly normal...no pretensions, no acts of piety for the sake of witnesses...all devotional duties held in private...away from prying eyes that might lead to suggestions of "goodness, saintliness, evolvement, etc." because once the student begins to hear this babble, his heart will be corrupted by it...he will believe it, then he will lord it over others by attempting to be very, very spiritual and humble. Yuck! It makes the flesh crawl! Namaste, the Hindi traditional greeting means, "I salute the light within you" roughly...a greeting of equality and understanding that each of us is equally part of the spiritual universe. Bear this always in mind...each of us are children playing in a universe of potential adults. We cannot judge ourselves and should never judge others. Our goal is to develop right thinking, right actions and to work for the good of others...the greater good...even when we know that we might not be "popular" or well liked for so doing. It is a fine balance. So work with the K Yoga group and develop concentration, exercise often, but carefully and cast off any sense of packaging yourself or behaving "spiritually" in order to be spiritual. You already are spiritual...you merely need to remember that. It's like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. She always had the means to return to Kansas, her "home" her spiritual center of being. The journey and efforts to realize this, just as they are for us, makes all the difference to the quality of being at this "center" of light and harmony. We value it more, because of the journey. So, I wish you a good journey...but not necessarily an easy one. An easy one would not seem worthwhile to you and would not give you much of a gift to share, eventually.
