Guest guest Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Dear Chrism: I understand what you are saying: But, really.... Until a few weeks ago I had only heard of Kundalini in passing! I never bothered to research it because I would " shy away from all of these 'complicated mystic sounding' practices " and just stick to what I FELT. Of course NOW I realize that I KNEW INSIDE many parts of the Kundalini experience-I just didn't have a name for them! It seems they have been happening all of my life! This reminds me of what my Zen teachers would say about enlightment " You already have it " . I would think: " I already have it??? What am I doing HERE then??? " To guide Deb or anyone else with Kundalini (especially terminology) seemed presumptous to me! That's why I said what I said. Quickly, I am now seeing that Kundali is an excellent way to explain what has been happening to me (and IMPORTANTLY to all of my friends I meet on 'paranormal' web sites!) who are trying to make sense of all of the " mysterious " occuarances in their lives. I actually have been practicing many aspects of Hatha Yoga -I just called it Yoga and thought it was " nice exercise " but not " macho " enough for me . Now I see I have been ALSO practicing some Kundalini Yoga-without knowing the terminology! I even see now how my Zen practice of 'empty mind' meditation is a part of the Kundalini experience--and a Japanese version of it. So, I will comment on what I KNOW -my feelings- freely. I will comment on Kundalini terms and methods as I feel I learn them. This place reminds me of a good martial arts class. A white belt (me) does not waltz in and start teaching others: he leaves that to the instructor (Chrism). However, in a good class ---like this ....the teacher encourages ALL of the students to " jump in " and share what they have learned. I will do that when I feel compelled.... I just hope someone doesn't jump in and say: " Who the HELL does that Stephen think HE is? " I know...Stephen is just another beautiful human--just like all of you here! Many blessings to all here!....and my instructor...Chrism! :) Stephen - Monday, June 26, 2006 2:02 AM Re: Re: To Stephen Condry and all Stephen Condrey and everyone, Please do not clam up here speak freely and for how ever long you wish.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Interesting Stephen, All roads lead to Kundalini. Reminds me of those who have come here or that have mentioned to me at the seminars that " There is nothing else " as they have tried the other systems of enlightenment and found them wanting. I too was in this pattern until Kundalini found me. Blessings to you and all on this path - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
