Hi There!/Small Identities

February 22, 2003

Sat Nam Joey....Welcome!

You won't be disapointed with "Prem". It is beautiful and has a

very universal sound to it. It touches many people from different

walks and cultures.

To add to the information that Deva shared with you...

I'm laughing as I read your e-mail..."could anybody who has

experience with the problem of, "these small identities",

comment"....because we all do! That's what we're are all working on!

So my answer is YES! I can relate! Ha ha!

First of all we start by buying into some "slightly off" perception

of our selves based on our experiences in life...from there we feed

this perception with more and more energy, giving this perception, a

life of it's own....and presto!...we have a whole crowd, living

within us (small identities). The next question becomes...which of

these "people" have over stayed there welcome and now really no

longer serve our higher goals and need to exit the premises, sooner

than later, if possible?

And this is what we do through KY, we clean out our closets, one

piece of clothing (limiting thought pattern) at a time.

As the Kundalini energy rises the practitioner experiences a rise in

awareness. With this rise in awareness you begin to recognize every

thought form you have "bought" into that limits your chances of

experiencing excellence as a human being in your life. Including

experiencing love, beauty,sharing, radiance, co-creativity,

connection with others and your higher being.

So through the practice of KY, we can begin to "de-mystify" our

lives...through opening our awareness, recognizing what beliefs and

thoughts we have that keep us limited and suffering in some way,

then we can analyze and contemplate the circumstances that created

that belief for us...so we can begin to understand the circumstances

of our lives...then we can begin to have an understanding of how

things are really working in our universe as apposed to how

we've "percieved" them working...

....and then we begin to release all of those "small selves" which

keep our energy locked up in the past and our perpectives locked in

a particular direction or breadth (a particular way of seeing things

and reacting)....and as we do this more and more, that closet of

ours gets emptier and where there is "space" there is "grace" or in

other words...when you create spaciousness within your mind...the

space will fill with what's left behind from the closet "detox" and

that is the light of your inner being...otherwise known as the

essence of the Source of all beings. And this is the experience of

living in integrity with your Soul and it's desires which stem from

the Divine Will. When all of our actions are born from this inner

light, we become a clear expression of our Divine nature.

And it's through the rising of the Kundalini energy that this

process begins to take place.

As for spiderwebs on the face...I think you would work with it the

same way you would work with a sensation occuring in your body,

rather than in the aura....by simply "allowing" without "thinking"

about it ("humph? I wonder what this means? wow, that really

tickles!,I don't like this, something must be wrong etc) this is an

example of thinking about the sensation...just physically experience

the sensation, allowing it through the senses to simply be..noticing

the sensation of the spiderweb as much as you notice the sensation

of "nothingness" in your right foot, for example....and eventually

you'll experience some forward movement..things will evolve in some

way..."how" it will evolve? you won't know until it happens.

Wishing you all Light on your journey,

Sat Nam Sat Sangeet I teach a young child 10 yrs. And during his

relaxation he saw people dying and being stabbed. I asked him if he had been

watching news lately, violent movies, or playing video games to which the

answer was no. At his age, should I suggest that he experience the

sensations as scary as it may be or suggest he talk it over with his

therapist that he is seeing. He is very bright and one of my best students.

He was extremely calm explaining his visions with me. He has come a long

way. In fact, we did the EFT as a class one day telling him how much we all

deeply loved him and accept him. It was a real turning point for him. By the

way, Thanks for the website on EFT in earlier post. The children were asking

to do the exercises again and I needed to refresh my memory. I love it when

the information I need seems to magically appear when I need it.

Blessings to all. Your post uplift me every day. Susie

Sat Nam Susie,

That was actually Cheryl who gave us the website on EFT (So thank you Chery!!)

I think explaining the process of allowing and not feeding thoughts with more of

the same kind of thoughts would be beneficial at any age...

For this particular circumstance that you are speaking of....I think I would

make sharing the above information just part of my regular class..put in a way

that 10 yr olds could relate to it and just see whether this little boy can make

the connection and apply that to what he is experiencing or not.

The other thing I would do...is just be a "safe" non-reactionary place for him

to express himself....regardless of what the "content" of his expression is.

And if he is seeing a therapist, when something like this comes up, I would

probably suggest that he talk to the therapist about the imagery...because it is

a road into his feelings.

I think it's really important to send the message that all feelings we

experience are valid and need to be experienced...and then teach people how to

experience and work with them effectively..so that we don't become reactionary

to them and begin "acting" them out in our enviroments/unleashing them on ohers

and creating harm etc. It's an act of self care, self responsibility and self

love.

When I was in my first SNR class...I remember having one visual after another of

death and dying and coffins and you name it! I think I remember my teacher

saying at the time,without me expressing any of this to him, something

like..."If you were thinking about death and dying while you were lying

there...don't worry about that, that's really normal" and then he had an

explanation for it, of which I can no longer fully remember. But the point

was...I was thinking to myself..Oh my god! what's wrong with me, why am I

thinking this?? And in one sentence he let me know, there was nothing to be

concerned about, everythings fine and having feelings and thoughts about

"anything" was perfectly normal and a healthy experience!

I hope that helps....I'm sure there are other people who can advise you as

well...

All light and blessings Susie,

Sat Sangeet
