Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Though I've no reason to see myself as special, getting to age 60 probably means a lot more exposure to interpersonal contact and potential conflict than would have been experienced by most people in this group. So forgiveness of myself and others is something in your practice that I'm taking very seriously. But how best to forgive? I could take the view that I and others " knew not what we did " OR I could chisel away at my need 'to judge' thereby never having a need to forgive or regret. After all, it is ego that spontaneously takes one to the moral high ground. The ego collapsing approach sounds like more hard work but seems a better way of desensitising one's vulnerabilities. I'd like to think that the full onset of Kundalini itself removes ego but I've seen a lot of flame wars on other kundalini websites and so I'm not sure if that happens. Anyway in my own meditation, the peace flowing from focussing on hurt being caused by short-sightedness (mine and others), seems easier to achieve. The 5 Tibetans practice is stimulating a lot of heat. The first exercise - twirling around - produces light-headedness that seems to loosen up my mindset and expectations going into meditation. My meditation sessions are now more frequent. I find getting into them easier because I've got rid of the idea that there is a 'right time' to meditate. I greatly enjoy reading other members' ideas and suggestions and thank you chrism for all your help.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Hello John, I see you as special as I see all here exploring this subject as unique and beautiful within the scope of this work. You speak of flame wars on other lists and you are correct. the Kundalini will not only amplify the good qualities but also those of the egoic. I have been there right in the middle of flame wars and where was my forgiveness then? Once again I understand that sometimes one must know a subject through experience in order to help others stay clear. I have found that the best way for forgiveness is to go into a light meditation and ask for those people and scenarios that need forgiveness to come to the fore. This will occur as you John, have new assistance. The people will come to mind and as they do forgive them the hurts they inflicted and then yourself for the hurts you inflicted - verbal , physical, emotional, all the ways. Be sincere and feel the release of each scenario. Then move on to the next. As this becomes a part of the daily practice and more and more issues clear up the emotional body will become ready for greater infusion. To ignite Kundalini in you " now " could be a most painful and horrific experience so we clear the bodies as much as we can and then through loving intention and loving action we activate the Kundalini. Try not to worry about how to forgive or if its best for the ego this way or that. Just forgive them and yourself sincerely. The intent will take care of the rest. Same with the gratitude's be sincere and release. As far as age is concerned you are at a fine age for the release of Kundalini and with a good background in the different approaches and disciplines. This is already affecting you and as the bodies clear you may self activate anyway with wonderful results. No worries my friend! - keep us informed as you walk this vertical path with blessings from all - chrism <...> wrote: Though I've no reason to see myself as special, getting to age 60 probably means a lot more exposure to interpersonal contact and potential conflict than would have been experienced by most people in this group.
