Namaste Narasimha and all, Prabodh's statement was not taken as belittling women or sexism or feminism. It was not even taken as an insult, but it was totally wrong. Not only that, but the explanation he later gave for the statement was wrong as well. He seemed to be very confident when he does not know anything about the subject. My question is why misguide and disappoint someone? If one does not know the subject, then they should state that it is their assumption. Jyotish on the other hand, is full of assumptions and we all know that and we all accept that. Thanks, Devika"Narasimha P.V.R. Rao" <pvr wrote: Namaste all, Let me make a few ramblings and then go back to work. I had a very busy week at work and I am still working. This is not an issue of belittling women or sexism or feminism. Kundalini activation does not make one a great person (in fact, a rising Kundalini makes one more and more humble, especially after the first few hurdles). If a particular group of people cannot have Kundalini activation, it is no big deal and not an insult. So that is not where I am coming from. But the bottomline is that what Prabodh said is simply incorrect. I can accept such Kundalini is nothing but the shakti of one's ego consciousness, which makes one think of oneself as a separate entity (as opposed being the supreme Brahman that everybody in

reality is). Kundalini is normally in Mooladhara chakra and coils around Swayambhoo Linga. One's ego consciousness binds one to the idea of self that encompasses one's body, name etc. At this level, there is a difference based on the sex. But, as Kundalini rises and one's ego consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness, one's sex is immaterial. In fact, soul has no sex. It is only the body that is male or female. And, one's ego consciousness is bound to body at very low levels of self-consciousness (i.e. Kundalini in lower chakras). As self-consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness, one's ego consciousness is no longer bound to body. Then how important is one's sex? In answer to

Prabodh's point, women can be Hatha Yogis. However, one does not need hatha yoga to activate Kundalini or make Kundalini rise. Hatha yoga is but one path. Bhakti yoga, jnaana yoga etc - there are so many paths. If you want to see the characteristics of one's consciousness, when it is in the 14 different planes of consciousness (corresponding to 14 chakras and 14 lokas), read "Yoga Vaasishtham" (a dialog between Rama and Vasishtha that was described by Valmiki). It is a fascinating and masterly book. It is a masterpiece of Advaita philosophy. In fact, I haven't read a better book - or a book that influenced me more profoundly - in my life so far. Anyway, whether you are pursuing Raja yoga or Jnaana yoga or Bhakti yoga or Karma yoga or whatever, your Kundalini will rise only when your self-consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness (which can happen in men and women). The way to

make that happen is different in different paths. In fact, animals can also reach higher planes of consciousness according to Vasishtha and he gave an example where a bird got moksha. Moksha cannot come without self-consciousness reaching the highest plane of consciousness (i.e. consciousness that one is simply supreme Brahman and nothing else), i.e. Kundalini reaching Sahasrara. If Kundalini can reach Sahasrara in a bird, why not in a woman? BTW, one more philosophical rambling: As we are born as human beings and blessed with some intellect, we should try to understand "self" better, instead of tying ourselves down with nonsensical concepts of "self" that only take us further and further away from who we

truly are. One's concept of "self" (ego) is what one truly believes one's "self" to be. By practice and conditioning, it can be altered. Whether one succeeds or not, it is worthwhile for every human being to ask oneself "who am I? What exactly is my "self"?" This may sound like a stupid question, but do ask yourself this question everyday and, believe me, it will slowly start making a difference. OK, good night now!

Were they all men and not women? Normally I am a calm person, but Prabodh has definately touched my nerve with this. His statement can mislead and disappoint women. My urge to all women is to continue on your earnest search for yourself. Life is too short. And not only that, but human life is rare. Make the best out of this life time.

Namaste Madam,

 

Just to make it clear, I did not imply that you took Prabodh's statement as belittling women. In fact, I was supporting your view. I too was saying that Prabodh was simply incorrect.

 

 

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

 

 

Narasimha

> Namaste Narasimha and all,> Prabodh's statement was not taken as belittling women or sexism or feminism. It was not even taken as an insult, but it was totally wrong. Not only that, but the explanation he later gave for the statement was wrong as well. He seemed to be very confident when he does not know anything about the subject. My question is why misguide and disappoint someone? If one does not know the subject, then they should state that it is their assumption.

It is a fascinating and masterly book. It is a masterpiece of Advaita philosophy. In fact, I haven't read a better book - or a book that influenced me more profoundly - in my life so far. Anyway, whether you are pursuing Raja yoga or Jnaana yoga or Bhakti yoga or Karma yoga or whatever, your Kundalini will rise only when your self-consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness (which can happen in men and women).

Whether one succeeds or not, it is worthwhile for every human being to ask oneself "who am I? What exactly is my "self"?"

Were they all men and not women? Normally I am a calm person, but Prabodh has definately touched my nerve with this. His statement can mislead and disappoint women. My urge to all women is to continue on your earnest search for yourself. Life is too short. And not only that, but human life is rare. Make the best out of this life time.

One note to Prabodh is that I do not have anything against you but the statement had to be corrected. Each one of us has made mistakes, you are not the only one. Let's put this behind us. You have good astrological knowledge, please keep on sharing and writing on the list. Thanks, Devika."Narasimha P.V.R.

Dear All Namaste

 

There were angry and some very angry reactions on this thread. It

seems that my understanding of Kundalini activation is different

than most of the people in this thread. My knowledge is stright from

the persons who have experienced KA and have told me many hidden

things in most logical manner.(Many have doubt about this but they

are not at fault. I am very poor at expressing what I know!)

 

There seems to be some confusion about the keywords such as

Moksha,Bhaktimarga and Kundalini. Basic aim of Sadhana is to obtain

gyana in Adhyatma. You can obtain knowledge by many means like by

Gyana,Raj,or Bhakti yoga. Kundalini yoga is subclass of Raja yoga.

Now to say that those who follow Gyana or Bhakti marga will also

expirence KA is very bold statement. Every marga will give you

ultimate knowledge but every marga will not be through Kundalini.

The person who has fully activated Kundalini and person who has

reached ultimate level in Bhakti marga will have same knowledge to

share. Both will be realized souls and will have same knowledge. But

there means will be different. Bhakti marga is more popular as it

is considered to be simple and safe. Most of the Santa are from

Bhakti marga. So many feel that Bhakti marga Santa must have obtain

knowledge through Kundalini activation.

 

Since Kundalini activation experience is very difficult to express,

Rishis have written Puranas and MahaKavyas(Ramayan & Mahabharat) to

explain those hidden secrets with the help of stories and

allegories. Once such story is of Kacha-Devayani-Shukracharya. It

ends with the statement that Mantra should not be given to woman.(

Read Gurucharitra). Shukrachary was forced to teach Sanjeevini

(Kundalini is temporary death and Sanjeevini is life after such

death) to his daughter. Shukracharya knew that this vidya should not

be given to woman but succumbed to the pressures put by his

daughter. Shukracharya dies in the process and Devayani learns.

Kacha as well learns as he was in the stomach of Shukracharya. Kacha

comes out in Bramha where as Devayani makes a strong request for

marriage which Kacha turns down. Devayani hence curses Kacha that he

will not be able to use this vidya(like BhargavaRama cursed Karna

in Mahabharata). In turn Kacha says that Devayani will not marry

Brahman(Brahma Janati eti Brahmana)i.e will not be able to control

Brahma. Finally Brihaspati curses to all Brahman that if anybody

teaches Mantra(Kundalini Vidya) to woman he will go Rairaiva Naraka.

 

Those who believe in this story in this way strictly follow it.

Others who follow literally suggest Vratas instead of Mantras to

women.

 

I was taught to read Ramayana and Mahabharata is this way. Just try

to understand why Rama asked Laxyamana to cut Stana-Nak-Kana of

Shoorpankha? or even, why Shiva and Brahma are enemies of each

other? In YogaVashista, why Indra and Ahilya story comes again and

again.(I dont exactly remember in which adhya as I read YogaVashista

seven to eight years back.)

 

Thanks a lot for your Time and Space.

expressing what I know!)There seems to be some confusion about the keywords such as Moksha,Bhaktimarga and Kundalini. Basic aim of Sadhana is to obtain gyana in Adhyatma. You can obtain knowledge by many means like by Gyana,Raj,or Bhakti yoga. Kundalini yoga is subclass of Raja yoga. Now to say that those who follow Gyana or Bhakti marga will also expirence KA is very bold statement. Every marga will give you ultimate knowledge but every marga will not be through Kundalini. The person who has fully activated Kundalini and person who has reached ultimate level in Bhakti marga will have same knowledge to share. Both will be realized souls and will have same knowledge. But there means will be different. Bhakti marga is more popular as it is considered to be simple and safe. Most of the Santa are from Bhakti marga. So many feel that Bhakti marga Santa must have obtain knowledge through Kundalini activation.

Since Kundalini activation experience is very difficult to express, Rishis have written Puranas and MahaKavyas(Ramayan & Mahabharat) to explain those hidden secrets with the help of stories and allegories. Once such story is of Kacha-Devayani-Shukracharya. It ends with the statement that Mantra should not be given to woman.( Read Gurucharitra). Shukrachary was forced to teach Sanjeevini(Kundalini is temporary death and Sanjeevini is life after such death) to his daughter. Shukracharya knew that this vidya should not be given to woman but succumbed to the pressures put by his daughter. Shukracharya dies in the process and Devayani learns. Kacha as well learns as he was in the stomach of Shukracharya. Kacha comes out in Bramha where as Devayani makes a strong request for marriage which Kacha turns down. Devayani hence curses Kacha that he will not be able to use this vidya(like BhargavaRama cursed Karna in

Mahabharata). In turn Kacha says that Devayani will not marry Brahman(Brahma Janati eti Brahmana)i.e will not be able to control Brahma. Finally Brihaspati curses to all Brahman that if anybody teaches Mantra(Kundalini Vidya) to woman he will go Rairaiva Naraka. Those who believe in this story in this way strictly follow it. Others who follow literally suggest Vratas instead of Mantras to women.I was taught to read Ramayana and Mahabharata is this way. Just try to understand why Rama asked Laxyamana to cut Stana-Nak-Kana of Shoorpankha? or even, why Shiva and Brahma are enemies of each other? In YogaVashista, why Indra and Ahilya story comes again and again.(I dont exactly remember in which adhya as I read YogaVashista seven to eight years back.) Thanks a lot for your Time and Space.Prabodh VekhandeJai Jai ShankaraHar Har Shankar*tat savitur varenyam*
