Riddle - thank you Amar Atma Singh

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam, Amar Atma Singh -

Your appreciation is very kind. In turn, I'd like to thank you for founding

this website forum, as it appears to be the only " publishing site of record " for

introduction of evolutionary insight in the unfolding of Kundalini Yoga into the

Aquarian Age. We have wonderful, authoritative sites, institutes and resources

for maintaining the integrity of what Yogiji himself taught us. But most

importantly, he taught us that our true spiritual teacher is inside of us, each

of us, individually. SO, when this " Inner, Authoritative Teacher " begins to

teach us things that extend beyond what we were even capable of understanding

when Yogiji was here in bodily form teaching, What resources to we have for

sharing this evolution? This Kundalini site is the only place I've found

or become aware of that is " OPEN SOURCE " enough to allow such new material to

emerge. Obviously, it will not be fully understood or embraced without one's

own critical engagement, eyes and heart wide open, IF one is open to that. So,

many have the complete right to ignore such posts as currently beyond their

capacity to evaluate (which is the ways are, as we are each at our own levels

and dimensions of understanding). And perhaps these insights are trivial to the

legitimate perspectives of some others. But, at the same time, the insights we

have attempted to share on this site (many files and documents in the " Files "

section from SevaPlace01, and others) provide an introductory site and archival

place where these things can be found, over time, as personal growth and

evolution of one's personal interests goes onward.

 

In regard to the " Male Lunar Nature " to be mastered by men - perhaps the most

important teaching that Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan gave us, is regarding the

CHIN as a Moon Center. In times of emotional shock or stress, this place on our

facial structure is like a direct window into our emotional stress. Especially

when a man takes up a protective or defending posture in direct confrontation

with an outside oppressive force (let's say, like a " spiritual warrior "

confronting the wrongdoing of a typical alpha male dominator type personality),

it is like a " Samarai Moment. " It does not help the spiritual warrior to

restore peacefulness successfully, if he is telegraphing his own internal

emotional conflict (which he is to manage yogically, in order to function

effectively). This window of the " exposed chin " becomes his Achilles Heel, in a

martial artist sense of conflict management, and signals his point of greatest

weakness and vulnerability. THIS is the evolutionary reason why the Male Form

has genetically selected to place a BEARD on the face of men. This can be

witnessed in two ways - under a full, untrimmed beard, the male face can relax

because it's not being seen as an ultra-sensitive reflector of inner emotional

state. For such a man to share his feelings calls for SPEECH that is articulate

in conveying feeling, filtered through his inner sensitivity, intelligence and

wisdom of life. Such men communicate feeling verbally, by choice, more

powerfully and authentically than any emotional display can begin to convey

visually. When a man approaches the world with an untrimmed beard There is no

better example of this kind of male-ness than our teacher himself.

 

On the other hand, there is also a corrupt and oppressive, egocentric way of

using the beard to conceal feelings. When a man shaves the face except for

mustache, short haired chin covering, and around the mouth, one ends up with a

kind of " Fu Man Chu " scary masked kind of male visage, which is often adopted by

alpha males who actually intend to be scary as a form of power in society.

Regular trimming of a beard is a routine of the ego to shape and contrive one's

worldly presence as " desired " . Negative Ego Agendas, male or female, approximate

archetypes that seem at least " semi-demonic " (especially if consciously wielded

and intended to control or manipulate others). So beards can also be

instruments of domination. One must look to the heart and soul (into the eyes

of the being) to learn the true motivation.

 

But all of this revolves around the opportunities and vulnerabilities that

Nature has created in the male form, at the chin, as a Moon Center. We have the

need to master ourselves in this way in order to be and project a visage of

kindness, strength, trustworthiness and authenticity - ON FIRST GLANCE, before

any words are even spoken. This is where the vibrations of our Aura and the

Subtle Body precede us in every encounter. And why Dr. Narayan Singh would

always say, " Faces Never Lie, But People Do. " The Face is a Mirror of the Mind,

and the Eyes are Windows to the Soul. And everything about everyOne everyBody

can be known. So there are no secrets in the Aquarian Age, we'll all show up at

our own self-developed " Face Value. "

 

But this is why Kundalini Yogis, Sikhs and Khalsas don't trim the hair that

we're gifted with. The art of living is in how we deal with that reality. Pony

Tails, Braids or Turbans - each is a different approach to this issue, with

varying degrees of success within oneself and society. The issue of facial hair

is a constituent in sharpening the " razor's edge " of the path we walk on. For

us, Razors are meant for walking on, not applying to our bodies.

 

Thank you again for all you've done on behalf of Aquarian Publishing.

 

We'll all have much more to share as our Lights of Enlightenment turn on and

brighten up, and form Yin and Yang with all the shadows.

 

for many Blessings,

Krishna Singh

you on YB's astrology, in terms of the dharmic path.
