Guest guest Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Jai Guru Datta Sri Agastya, Not everyone is travelling at the same rate. The thunderstorm is only an externalization of the powers that lay inside your kundalini. The appearance of an endless sky and your tent floatig in space, represents your consciousness. The bottom of the tent that got very wet, represents the identification of ego hanging onto apparent comfortableness. There is nothing better than sleeping in uncomfortableness or embracing poverty, or what is called the " disaster " . What disaster, you are still here? " I'll do anything to break free, should be the manta for you from this point onwards.... even be totally uncomfortable... " Thunders represent your kundalini rippling through your back. You should have confidence by now and relax, no praying will help, you must endure all appearances. All is well with or without the idea of the spectacular. Always remember you are nature and nothing can harm you on any level in any way whatsoever, such is the gift of our Beloved, Sri Swamiji. Your email made me smile and laugh .. have courage, dear friend, or you cannot become God.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Jaya Guru Datta I am curious about this metaphorical explanation; and please forgive my ignorance, but could you please tell me the origins of this fascinating knowledge? Is this from Vedic sources? Thanks!
