Introduction......

August 31, 2007

Hi everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself to the group. I will

admit that my kundalini is not yet activated. I have had some

experiences that might be related to it, but I think a lot of people-

more than not, probably- have some of these K-related experiences at

least once in their lifetimes, although their K is not activated.

That is, I believe, the case with me. Yet, I would like to activate

my K. I have read enough about it to know that there can be some

unpleasant (to say the least) side effects when activating K- even

temporary " psychosis. " At the moment, I feel that I am willing to

accept the risks and deal with what comes, for the chance to awaken

my kundalini and have it rise. A lot of things require struggles to

obtain, but that doesn't mean they are not worth the battle.

Unfortunately, I do not have a guru. I have looked online for a place

where I might find someone locally (offline), to ask for help, but

the closest I can find anyone is about 3 and a half hours to 4 hours

away. I cannot make regualr trips of that distance, unless it is to

my sister's house. She lives about 3 hours away and I do visit her

ocassionally. However, none of the teachers/guides I have found are

in her area. I know it is advised to have a guru to help determine if

you are ready, and to help you activate the K and guide you through

the experience. I have wanted this for awhile. I know some people say

that when you are ready, the teacher will find you, but sometimes I

think we need to seek the teacher for ourselves. I am still looking.

If all else fails, I might try to find some way to go the extra

distance to find one. It will be difficult at the moment, though,

because I don't currently have my own vehicle. Plus, I'd rather have

a more local guru, so that I don't have to burn so much gas getting

there (environmental concern mostly, but also- I don't have the cash

to spend so much on gas, at the moment).

I was reading on one of the posts here that one should pray for K to

be awakened and surrender to that rather than actively seeking it

out. I have thought about trying that, actually, and have asked for

some similar things (more compassion for instance), but I am still

not certain that seeking out K is wrong. Sometimes, I think we are

expected to put forth effort of our own, but of course, I suppose

prayer might be considered effort.

I hope I am still welcome to be here. I feel that I am serious about

this matter. I am continuing to search for a guru, and am thinking

about trying to pray for kundalini, as well. I may also pray to ask

for a guru. I would like to discuss matters concerning kundalini

here, learn from the experiences of others, ask relevant questions,

and when I find my guru, if my K is activated (OR if prayer activates

it, or it finds me) I would like someone to share my experience with.

Thanks for having me. I wish you all well in your journey.

Welcome to our Family, Phantom.

You may find that you need to look no further for all

you seek, regarding others to help and support you in

your Journey. We have a very experienced and gifted

Teacher to help us over the hurdles and light the way

before us, as well as a reservoir of knowledge and

experience among the membership. I am deeply grateful

everyday for such an amazing Group of loving and

caring people.

Many of us were not activated before joining this

Group, so jump right in and feel at home.

Warm hug. Love, dhyana

Hello Phantom,

You are most welcome here. In my humble opinion the

best Guru you will ever find is right behind your own eyes. You are

correct in that it takes some effort and diligence to come into the

Kundalini. And wanting Kundalini and having Kundalini are two very

different platforms of experience. Wanting it is helpful as it allows

one to embrace the experience with all of its bells and whistles

(flutes) lol. Welcome to the group phantom and is this the name you

wish to go by? -

August 31, 2007

Hi dhyana! Thanks for the welcome. *smiles* And thanks for the warm

hug. *Warm hugs back to you* I wasn't sure if most of the people

joining here were already activated or not. It makes me feel better

to know I am not the only one who joined before being activated. I am

glad you have found what you need here, and I hope I can find it, as

well. It is nice to have met you and I look forward to getting to

know you.

Love and Light,

Phantom

Hi Chrism! I'm glad to know that I'm welcome here, and I look forward

to getting to know you and everyone else in the group. I guess it is a

good thing to want to have the kundalini awakened, since, perhaps,

wanting it will make it somewhat easier to deal with the negative

things that might arise. I am not looking forward to the negative side

effects that might pop up, but I am looking forward to having the

blocks healed, and I know that many think that is where the pain comes

from. I once heard someone say of a certain issue, " You have to feel

it, to heal it, " and I think that is often true. It is nice to know

that you welcome people wanting to awaken the kundalini here. I have

met people who have warned me not to do it, and I was hoping this group

would be open to my trying to activate it. As for my name, I do not

mind if you call me Phantom, Mermaid, Phantom Mermaid or PM. I'm not

very picky. I just figure it is easier to type one part of the name (or

abbreviate) instead of typing the entire thing, so I just used Phantom,

but I would respond to any variation.

Blessings to you, as well.

Hello,

I do hope you'll share your first name with us

eventually, we are an intimate family here and you

will soon feel safe and very much at home.

You said something very interesting here:

" I know some people say

that when you are ready, the teacher will find you,

but sometimes I

think we need to seek the teacher for ourselves. "

IMHO, we need to seek the teacher INSIDE

ourselves...everything you need to activate is inside

of you. The tools you need for a safe and gentle

activation are here on this site (The Safeties, The

Tibetans), and all of the companionship and support

you may need along the way are here in these kind and

loving group members. is a wonderful 'guide'

in the sense that he has 'been there' before us and

can help to steer us around/through any possible

pitfalls and issues we may encounter along the way.

So, relax, familiarize yourself with and begin to

practice the Safeties, and read and post so that you

may begin to get to know us and we you!!

Peace & love,

Claudia

Hi Phantom -

I want you to know that all the fears I was experiencing during my activation

was ignorance based. I didn't know what was happening to me, it just was. I

didn't have anyone to talk to about it, my husband didn't know what Kundalini

was either. He thought it was all in my head, as in I was becoming mental.

You have an opportunity to educate yourself prior to an activation, which is a

blessing on its own. I wish I knew what Kundalini was before I activated, I

would of not had been in such fear.

To me it has become an important part of my life, at first and of course based

on fear, I wished it never occurred. As days passed and guided me into

the understanding that it's not a curse but a blessing, I began to let go of my

immense fear and began to experience the birth of me the welcoming of a new

beginning. I am very happy I did.

I had no physical pain, none, ever. I feel sensations that at first were scary

because I never had them before but now as I surrender to them they are quite

pleasurable and they fill me with bliss. I tend to dive into these sensations,

allowing them to take its wonderful course. I meditate each day and each time I

am left with this wonderful energy flow that it's indescribable, it fills my

heart with Love and a desire to share this Love and understanding with everyone.

If you hold on to the fear of pain or any fear for that matter it won't be

productive, if Kundalini is what you want to experience then allow your heart to

embrace it, do it lovingly and follow the safeties it's very important. Chrism

is the best thing that has happened to me during this period of my life, he is a

great teacher, wouldn't trade him for anyone.

Love always,

Becky

Hi Becky! It is a relief to know that most of your fear stemmed from

not knowing what was going on, because that means that I may not be

as afraid, since I will know what is occuring. I can understand why

you were confused and I'm sorry that you were afraid, but at least

you don't have to feel that way anymore. *smiles* Thank you for

telling me that the fear is mostly ignorance based. I will try to

educate myself as much as possible about Kundalini symptoms.

Did your husband ever come around to understanding what was going on?

I hope so. I am worried that if my K is activated, people will think

I am crazy, but I think most people suspect me of being a little off,

anyway. *laughs*

I am glad there was no physical pain involved. I'm also glad for you,

that you found chrism, that you now know what is going on, and that

you enjoy your K. I will try to follow your advice and let go and

accept the K when and if, I am blessed to recieve K activation. Thank

you for helping me to better understand the experience of recieving

K. I think that I have heard too many horror stories from people and

have gotten the wrong idea about what one has to go through to have

their K activated and awakened. It is nice to be in a group that

focuses on the positive side of K. The love and understanding you

mention being filled with, and your desire to share it with everyone-

that is what draws me to wanting my K activated. It sounds so

beautiful. *smiles*

Love and Light,

Phantom

Dearest Phantom -

I am glad to hear from you. This is a safe place, the wonderful, loving

energies flow in every stroke of a keyboard, world wide. is always here

for us. Open your heart allow the love to flow in and out onto the world. Look

at all situations with love and fear dissipates, there's just no room for fear

when love is present. Trust.

When I was out in the " world " among people I was openly judged as being " too

lovey dovey " . They have gotten to a point that they are used to me, the way I

am and accepted it. They expect, now at first sight, to be hugged and kissed by

me. If I had cared one bit what they had to say I would of not been loving

them, for allowing them to have their opinions opened the door to acceptance.

So? Who cares if people suspect you of being a little off? Diversity is

wonderful, embrace it. Laughing helps too, I am laughing all the time.

With much love,

Becky
