Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I am a lurker and am finally ready to introduce myself at the urging of my dear brother (Bill-Astronutski). My name is Lori and I have been interested in meditation and yoga for years, although not consistent with either practice. I have also been on a spiritual path for some time, reading many books and asking questions like " what is my purpose " . I pray for guidance. I try to practice honesty, forgiveness, and taking care of my loved ones with acts of service in order to be more `Christ-like'. (my religious orientation) The reason I am drawn out of lurking, started after an out of body experience back in November. I developed a strange tingling sensation (almost feather-like) at the base of my spine. After some time, the sensations then progressed to a stronger throbbing or pulsating type of vibration. They now feel like someone or something is `stirring' the base of my spine in a circular pattern. I have been practicing the safeties and am trying not to resist. But fear pops up now and then. Over the past week I have had very strange symptoms, mostly intense whole body `jerking' (for lack of a better word). I start sleeping on my right side and then WHAM, all my muscles tighten up and flip me over onto my back. These `jerks' are almost violent in nature. They take my breath away and I involuntarily forcibly exhale with an `uh'sound with each spasm/jerk. The spasms continue for approx 2 hours. The following day I am really sore in my back. I have also experienced an extremely bright white light `flash' behind my closed eyes. (almost like a camera flash that is too close) This happened two times. Also I am feeling extremely `spacey' the past few days, most notably when I am going to sleep. I feel dizzy and like I am mildly spinning and floating….but not out of body. So many questions…..Are these beginning signs of a Kundalini awakening or arousal? Is this a normal progression? Should I continue the safeties, meditating & yoga? What can I expect next? I have a million questions. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi Lori! So exciting to hear from you. The list is quiet at the moment, but I'm sure will be on soon. It sounds like you doing so well! In regard to the Safeties, try keeping the Inner Joy in mind. Do you have a selected memory of joy to steer to when you feel fearful? It will help until more help comes. HUgs...and I'm so proud of you. Sounds like you're on your way! Its a Good thing!!!

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'm real proud of you, cousin Lori, for stepping into the light and speaking up...I understand and respect your past reticence but think you've made the right decision to get some feedback on your sensations. All of this does sound like Kundalini to me and it is good that you are practicing the Safeties and that you came into your activation with a gentle, loving heart and active service to others. It sounds like you are having quite a time with 'kriyas,' which are surely what your spasmic posturing is! I know that will have some suggestions for you to either smooth out that experience or help you get through it. Everyone's awakening is different, so I can't tell you what you might expect, but I can tell you that--if you continue to practice the Safeties--you have nothing to be afraid of. I hope that you will find--now that you have taken a step forward to introduce yourself and ask questions--that this is a warm and safe haven where you can feel comfortable to interact with us more often and ask questions to your heart's content! Welcome to the light! Love & blessings, Claudia horsemom3646 <basket1 wrote: I am a lurker and am finally ready to introduce myself at the urging of my dear brother (Bill-Astronutski).

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hello Lori, Please be careful to not describe these symptoms to those who do not know about it as they can misunderstand and fear for you can be experienced by them. Very few MD's even know of the Kundalini so be advised about going to a doctor as they will merely wish to medicate you. Very few priests or reverends or pastors know about the Kundalini or about the infusion of the Holy Spirit as most of them have not had this experience. It is rare outside of this list. So please do not have fear or concerns about this. Look at the website and Gleno has kindly included a list of other symptoms. As Dhyana said allow yourself to go into the Inner Joy. Do not expect those with whom you share day to day existence to understand and so I do council a level of discretion. You will reach areas of symptoms that may be so unusual as to make you feel concerned about your health. No worries about this and realize that these are part of the process. Kidneys expanding and hot cold flashes, too much energy, restless legs, gastro intestinal imbalances, any number of unusual events including more OBE's can be experienced. Twitching and jerking of the spine and limbs. Nostrils wanting to hyperflare, tongue feeling like it needs to be stretched and manipulated, rapid heartbeat almost a fluttering of the heart, the dizziness as you have been experiencing, Genitals fluttering and many many other sensations. It all good. It may at times make the phsical body sore as Linda is experiencing but this is merely the transitional effects of the body going through the many changes and coming into balance with them. - blessings Lori - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Welcome Lori! So glad you decided to join us. Your symptoms all sound normal. The body jerking sounds like Kriyas, which can contort you into different positions. I'm sure will confirm that for you. Follow the Safeties and please come to the group with any questions and concerns rather than getting into fear. The K will amplify what you are feeling, so fear is to be avoided if possible. You should keep an eye on your dreams too as you may receive some K symbols in them. There are many of us here (myself included) that are Christian and had concerns over that at the beginning. Dhyana or Kat would be able to point you toward some info on Christianity and Kundalini. Welcome and please keep asking questions. The more we all share with one another the more all of us learn together.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hi Lori Welcome to this great group, as I read this message I feel the pressure on my top chakra - it is all good. The only fear to be afraid of is fear itself, be guided by your intuition. blessings and love nick --- horsemom3646 <basket1 wrote: > I am a lurker and am finally ready to introduce > myself at the urging > of my dear brother (Bill-Astronutski).
