Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 I hope these are not silly questions. I have been meaning to ask for a long time, but kept forgetting and was reminded in a dream last night. What I am wanting to know is; if the laying on of hands to recieve the baptism of the Holy Spirit is the same thing as recieving a shaktpat? I recieved that from a minister in the early 80's. From what I have experienced and read these seem similar if not the same thing. A coincidence, (even if there isn't such a thing,) I found out some time later that this man who baptized me with the Holy Spirit was a cousin to my brother-in- law. Even though they had the same name, I did not think to connect them because he was from California and we all live way over here in Texas. When you recieve shakipat from someone, is that when a scatterfield is created? I hope I'm understanding scatterfield right. Is is like a psychic connection made with intent, between the giver and reciever? Another questions that has really bothered me since I first began researching Kundalini. Do people who experience spontaneous cumbustion; could this be Kundalini gone wrong?. I saw a program on TV about spontaneous combustion some time ago and the way the steam was coming from her back it made me question whether it could be Kundalini that caused that. Maybe K spontaneously rising in a person who was not prepared. Do you think that could be? Thanks ahead of time for you time,chrism or who ever would like to reply. You know, I am always willing and ready to give help where ever and whenever I can, but it always seeems so strange to me to ask anything of anyone, even if it is just an answer to a question.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 As far as the Scatterfield goes I do not know of anyone else doing that at all and yet there is precedence of a sort. The precedence is that of the teacher always having an inkling as to what is going on with the student. Another guide in the physical and spiritual conditions. The Scatterfield is a connection. But I do not follow people around who have them. And I cannot say it is in the precedent nature of the old style teaching arrangement. I am not doing the type of teaching that I would do if I had the student in person and could see them on a day to day basis. This isn't occurring at least not that way though I do have interaction with some and this is beneficial. So I come when needed and then only in as much as the individual requires at that moment. Some here will have dreams where I show up. That can be an activity of the scatterfield. St Theresa of Avila didn't call her condition Kundalini. It was referred to as the " Fire of God " or the " Fire of Christ " and as per another thread on this subject with Dhyana I do feel that certain people who are predisposed to have the Kundalini do come into the practice of religion where it will be most accepted. They will then have interaction with those who they preach to or have communication of a spiritual nature and they can indeed shaktipat the person. Not always a blessing mind you as ignorance will still present and the " Kriya " can become a sign of possession or other harmful qualities. Now the Shaktipat given would quite different than what is being given here. And once again lack of knowledge would play a significant role in what ever transpired. Gopi Krishna received Shaktipat from " saint " , as holy people are referred to in India who show gifts, when an infant as his mother sought a cure for his early childhood ailments. I cannot say with precision about you or your case. I am getting some still pics in my mind but nothing that leaps out to me as anything definitive to your question. Spontaneous Human Combustion or SHC can be a result of a short circuiting of the entire human system. Usually when mixed with alcohols over a consistent period of time. Some folks will short circuit and burn to the temperature of the surface of the Sun. Leaving shoes and furniture unburned as the heat is so intense it becomes very specific to the body physical. Remember there are about seven trillion cells in a typical body, science goes back and forth on this estimation but its there abouts. Each cell has been measured to have the capacity of one volt of electricity. So that is a potential of seven trillion volts! Think about that. There are agreements for this to occur on other levels as well so it isn't an accident and it isnt common. So have no worries and umm...could you pass me the Brandy? - (kidding!) - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 This is a re-do because was hungry last night and ate my long post. Maybe this one will be better said. I wish I could remember to hit copy before I hit send, especially on a long one. Looks like I would learn eventually. Anyway, chrism, I do very much thank you for replying and giving me a a more in depth interpretation of what scatterfield is all about. Even though I have done much research on the kundalini and have even read one Gopi Krishna book's " Kundalini For the New Age " , I don't remember much what it was about. I need to read it again now that I know a little more, I may could understand it a little better. It just seemed to me to be a lot like what I had experience with the baptism. All I know is that the baptism in the Holy Spirit changed me forever. I could never go back to being the person I was before, nor would I want to. When I look back on that it almost makes me believe in what is called a " walk in " (Ruth Montgomery). I became a totally different person it seemed, but still with all my old memories. From that experience, I do have the understanding of what such a thing can have on the family members. My marriage came close to ending at that time, but it did survive. In fact, I have survived through several crisis points. LOL! Life is a bumpy road! I have been practicing the safeties everyday. Some of them I was doing, such as the finger lock, tongue, and eyes up. I guess they have just came naturally for me to do. The alternate breathing, I have been doing that with the Centerpointe Meditation program. I'm on my 5th year with that. Really the only thing I have not been doing is the Tibetans, which I am now doing faithfully everyday. I started out with 6 each. I was surprise that I did not get sore with doing them. I have not been in any kind of exercise program now for about 10 years, except I do walk 30 minutes to an hour everyday come rain or shine. My little dog refuses to let me set out, even one day. Anyway, I moved it up to doing 10 of each the last few days and I will keep it there for a little longer, even though I'm still not experiencing much soreness, if any. I do have a very high pain tolerance level, though, so I guess I should go easy rather there is pain or not. I have never been one to watch much TV, but I do like a good movie now and then. I am on this computer more than I should be at times, at least my husband thinks so. Hehe! When I went through menopause, unlike most people instead of experiencing hot, I stayed soooo freezing cold all the time. I wish I had known about that nostral breathing back then. My temp stayed below normal all the time. I gained way too much weight during that time. I think I was more like hibernating even though my body was up doing things, a whole lots more so than now. No matter what I did I could not stop my body from gaining. Now that menopause is over with, I have lost some, but it is so slow going. Now I have these moment where I get so burning hot inside (not sweating hot, but dry hot). That is why I ask about the spontaneous combusting, (Hehe!) sometimes it feels like I am going to burst into flames. I've not had any medical problems except for having my appendex to ruture a couple of years ago. I thought I was just having a bad flu/virus thing. I really wasn't in that much pain. I came very close to death with that. From what all that took place afterwards, it seemed like I really should have died, for a lot of adjustments had to me made because of my still being here, if that makes any sense. Hard to explain. I am working on making my diet better. I do have some bad eating habits at times. With it just being me here most days, I get lazy about cooking just for myself. I mostly snack eat, rather than have a meal. I love fruit, but I have to go slow on those because of my low tolerance to sugery food. I did go buy a watermelon to try since you have stress that we should be eating that...yummm, I hope I can eat it with no side effects. Snack eating is more the way I ate as a child, but instead of going to the store and buy it, I went out and plucked it right off the vine, bush, or tree. No chemicals added to that makes one sick. Those were good days. Fresh spring water and eating off the land. We were consider one of the poorer families around, but we never went hungry, not even one day. There was always something growing, even watermelons at times. Wow! I just saw my aura when I looked down at my hands. Well I guess I better end this, I don't know if this is a better version, but it sure is a lot longer. LOL! I would pass you some brandy, chrism, if I had it. How about some more blessings sent your way. I would not mind helping with the cost of a private forum. Surely as many of us that are here, we could pitch in and share the cost of forum. I know this one person who was using a free version of a private forum and he upgraded to a paid version. I believe he said the cost was about 60 or so a year. His forum is really nice. I do not know anything about getting one and running it, but I could sure help with the cost. The only thing about the free versions is the advertisments and all.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Hello CC, Always good to read you. You bring up interesting points that I have not stressed enough. Let's call them " activation platforms " . In the manifested state Kundalini is often a balance between two platforms of experience and expression- The Spiritual The Physical These two areas will share aspects of the expressing Kundalini. IE the body will go through certain physical expressions at the same time the conscious ego is also experiencing phenomena that is of a spiritual nature. Likewise an activation can take place from a strictly spiritual platform as well as a strictly physical platform. Here we are combining these two platforms and adding a sacred third. The Shaktipat. This is why activations are often so strong here as people practice the safeties and allow the Shaktipat. An experience with divinity as in accepting the Holy Spirit, or the sacred Buddha, or the Lord Krishna, or any of the divinities that are available can be very much like an opening of the Kundalini and may very well lead one into that area but without the fairly direct physical manifestations that can happen with intentional Kundalini awakenings. At first it can be more subtle but after a time the spiritual aspected platform will very often emulate the intentional one. So yes you may have been activated from a spiritual platform that has lead you to another platform of intention. - God works in mysterious ways - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
