shooting pains on the right side of the right breast

[Guest guest]

Dear Priya,

 

The Kundalini manifests in the Kandal (between the navel and 4th vertebra),

the Sahasrara (crown) and the Hrdayam (in the synod or pacemaker, 1/8th to

the right of the sternum) where we point when we say "I."

 

The regeneration of the atma nadi, between the Hrdayam, which lights the

body with the sense of "I" and the Sahasrara, which reflects that light

throughout the images of the mind and denotes the idea of "I" or an identity

the sense of "I" to certain thoughts and images and sensations, so that we

think "I am the body, etc.

 

With the practice of Kundalini Yoga, the centers and nerves of the body

begin to charge and the sound of mantras and laya Yoga and certain kriyas

releases the energy accumulated in the centers so that the whole body field

begins to resonate and balance. The result of this is that the mind becomes

pure and begins to turn inwards towards its source.

 

This source is the True "I" - the "I" that you always refer to in pointing

to yourself in the heart, but mistake for the thoughts and sensations that

appear in the "I" light that pervades the body and the Universe in all its

conscious, subconscious, unconscious dimensions as their Ground and

substratum.

 

Sometimes, as the Hrdayam opens and the atma nadi begins (an extension of

the sushumna - also the major vagas nerve) to regenerate there may be

pressure, heat, sometimes like a pain felt in the Hrdayam and atma nadi and

the head.

 

It's useful to read some scripture which focuses on the hearing,

contemplating and abiding in the non-dual Self, which also helps to reorient

the mind to enquiry into this single "I." With "hearing" the you awaken to

the Singularity of your True "I" where you experience that who you are is

not different from the all-pervasive universal consciousness, where "I and

my Father are One" - where "This Atman is That Brahman."

 

This experience is so simple, yet consuming that all previous ideas of

identity to the body and mind of thoughts simply dissolve, fade and vanish

like a mirage, and you recall and remain who you always are.

 

Hope this helps. Keep up!

Dear friends,

I've been practicing Kundalini yoga for quite sometime and I am experiencing

symptoms like vibrations all over the body or some times only in certain

areas of the body, ringing in the ears, crawling and stinging sensations

etc...Recently I am getting shooting pains on the right side of the right

breast. This shooting pain comes only occasionally. I'd like to know if

this is also a symptom of Kundalini raising or I am facing

some health problems? Has anybody experienced shooting pains on the breasts?

 

Priya.

Hi,

 

This is interesting because this is something that I have experienced as

well, but more on the left side. Sometimes it seems to move around to the

side , on top of my rib cage. It's really painful and takes a while to go

away sometimes. I notice that if I breath in, it seems to constrict..like

the muscles or tendons, or whatever they are, are too tight so when my

ribcage expands to take in breath...it meets with resistance from my muscles

constricting...hence...pain! OUCH!

 

I'm kind of glad I'm not the only one to experience this... not that it's a

good thing for anyone to feel..... just that I'm not alone!

Hello, All,

 

This has been an interesting discussion, and I'm glad for Priya's question

and all the responses. I've been experiencing something similar, tho I

didn't identify it as breast-related. It felt deeper than that, a tight

pain in the chest wall just to the right of the sternum. Years ago I'd get

a similar, tho less sharp, feeling, followed by the urge to stretch and

"crack" the sternum like some people "crack" the knuckles of their fingers.

Indeed, when I stretched the sternum would "crack" that way and the

tightness would be relieved.

 

Pieter's message about the Kandal, the Sahasrara and the Hrdayam intrigued

me, and this is something I'd like to learn more about. In the meantime,

I'm simply noticing when this tight pain arrives, how it feels and what it

may relate to. I rarely feel it during kriya or meditation. It pops up at

other times.
