Guest guest Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 This question was asked of me lately and so if it is of any interest here. The response is below: The ancient Hindu or the Aryans who swept down into the Indus peninsula 6000 or so years ago did much exploration of the Kundalini state of being. They kept records and charted the journey of one going into this condition. We in the west have learned about Kundalini from the contemporary Hindu mostly since the turn of the last century with Ramakrishna, Yogananda and more specifically from Gopi Krishna. As representatives of contemporary Hinduism - which pulls from ancient Hinduism - many of the old words are still used. Modern Hinduism does not promote an understanding of the Kundalini. It is kept from the teachings of the masses. As more and more people experience the Kundalini more and more knowledge will be spread to Hinduism and all the other religions as Kundalini isn't bound to any " one " religion. We borrow the Sanskrit from the contemporary Hindu who borrows it from the ancient Hindu. It is a means to describe something that was held in strict secrecy for thousands of years. At once a sign of respect but also a prayer with every syllable. It is also a musical notation and frequency language. It is a profound and compressed form of communication not only with the human but also with the divine in and outside of the physical human. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I have been corrected by a member about the archeological significance of the " Aryan " aspect of this post. Archeological determinations of that not being the tribe that came into the Indus pinensula. I will allow for this correction though not because of archelogical " proof " but because i cannot name the tribe myself. - chrism <> wrote: This question was asked of me lately and so if it is of any interest here.
