Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Dear Violet and All, i understand by what you meant by permanently catch-free i.e., you do not have catches that last more than a few minutes. A " catch " (Koran - " your hands will speak " ) is an imbalance. If we feel heat or tingling, or maybe even numbness in our fingertips, it means that our kundalini is alerting us to an imbalance in a particular chakra. There are many reasons a catch will register, and normally has to do with our own shortcomings. The Mother Kundalini warns us to check and refrain ourselves by giving us a catch. The catch finger corresponds to the chakra that has become imbalanced by our wrong action/behavior. It is a fantastic way to be gently reminded by the Divine Mother to remain on the spiritual path. But we humans will always get catches due to our behavior/surroundings that may cause us to temporarily stumble. The catch reminds us to correct ourselves and we can quickly make the necessary adjustments - lower our voice, take away our eyes, shut our mind etc., from adharmic activities. This is the main reason and purpose of registering catches. Thus i do not understand when SYs get catches for days, months and even years. Something is just not right here. How can it be that SYs here have demonstrated that they can remain permanently catch-free without any cleansing rituals whereas the vast majority of SYs are constantly engaged in clearing? We have SYs who can just brush off catches within minutes with only their attention. Their subtle system has become immune to problems that plague our collectives. The only reason i can think for the sorry state of our collectives is that they have become obsessed and therefore increasingly unbalanced. This is a vicious circle that only reinforces their determination to ever keep clearing, and remain unbalanced. So we should never fall into that cleansing and clearing mentality. Even if others are practising these cleansng rituals we should just use our consciousness, attention, desire and mantras. The Mother Kundalini will keep you permanently catch-free ie., using catches only to remind/warn you to check yourself/stay away from adharmic activities. Catches should be a source of faith that you are guided by the Divine, not tortured and made to feel guilty daily. Something is seriously wrong with those who need so many cleansing rituals, and yet are always catching. So why join them and become infected with the same sickness? Just learn how to remain permanently catch- free from those who have advanced themselves, and do not want to blindly follow the collective crowd. We can only learn from the experiences of our brothers and sisters to sidestep the pitfalls and advance. Just like good health it is a blessing to be catch-free. jagbir > , " jagbir singh " > <adishakti_org@> wrote: > > " Violet made an interesting comment that she is permanently catch- free. i believe that to be true because those who use their consciousness, attention, desire and mantras without any external element to focus can very easily rid themselves of catches.

In other words, it came and went very quickly. That is what i mean by being 'catch-free'. Nothing sticks on. It just goes through surrendered attention, that's all. > > Every healthy subtle system will register 'catches', because that is what an enlightened subtle system is supposed to do....is to register and give us knowledge. It even warns us of possible danger. That is its job. > > But it is up to us whether any potential danger is going to come and stick on to our subtle system as a permanent catch, or whether through our enlightened attention all these things just come and go automatically, through an efficiently working subtle sytem. > > i hope it is clear what i am trying to explain. > > with love and best wishes, > > Violet > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
