Guest guest Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 First step is to make a decision that this is what you wish to do. This decision must be firm. Think about it and do your research on the Kundalini at this site and other sites to give your self more than one perspective. Read about the trials and the joyful experiences. Develop an understanding that this is a lifetime condition and process and that once awakened there is no going back. Realize that this will affect every part of your life. Look at your finances and your familiy and friends ability to be supportive. Look at how you will be able to communicate your experiences and the ramifications of telling people who may try to have you committed for fear of watching a kriya for example. There are other examples such as being in a blissful state. Most people never experience this in their lives so it is a foreign condition to them and therefore it can invoke fear with in them. Consider this. Look into your past and feel how willing you are to revisit some of the pain and to begin to balance that pain whether inflicted or received. Look at your " faith " in divinity and yourself. How confident do you feel? How much " at peace " with life do you feel? Look at your levels of intuition. How often do you " feel " for information rather than mentally accruing information? Are you a couch potato? Are you seldom exercising the body? Or do you exercise the body consistently? Can you forgive another for treating you unjustly and surrender the need to hold a grudge? Can you change your diet? Can you change your sexual fantasies? Or " control " fantasies? Can you surrender to an invisible internal force? Do you have a moral structure that is strong enough to withstand multiple tests? These are merely some of the considerations one can look at with regard to preparation for the Kundalini. - blessings all - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 The day you posted this I had already been doing some introspection from the time I had woke up that morning. @@@@ Develop an understanding that this is a lifetime condition and process and that once awakened there is no going back.@@@@ I was just wondering if awakened means after you have a spinal sweep or when do you consider it awakened? All this time I thought I had spontaneously activated onto this path, but yesterday I was looking through some old stuff and I found a journal from 1987. While I was writing all that stuff down that year, I never thought of it as being a journal, but it is. Hehe! At the back of the journal I wrote down a very vivid dream I had one night and even wrote in what I thought some of it possibly meant. Reading back over that dream, I can see it as when I chose this path. In the dream I was given the choice of taking a journey up this steep mountain to something unknown. I was shown I would have to give up my attachment to friends, family, children, security, and all. In the dream I chose to go even though I had much fear about at the time. How could I ever turn back, now? I have to keep working on myself and continue surrendering...to finish what's been started. I really don't feel I have a choice to turn back from where I am now and I would not want to even if I end up dying a death of spontaneous combustion. I really feel like I don't have any control over my kundalini energy...

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 " I really feel like I don't have any control over my kundalini energy... " It becomes a balance Linda. A nice and comfortable balance. One becomes able to read the Kundalini by the repetition of responses to a wide range of scenarios. Kundalini is of its own nature but it is within " your " body and though through surrender we are willing to give up everything including the body we will typically continue to walk in it as we mature into the awakening. Awakening is as much a process as it is a goal. We come at it from many different angles and so it is a unique and yet shared process of maturation. One begins to understand this as the teachings of the Kundalini are received openly and without hesitation. Kundalini isnt controlled as much as it is welcomed. We control it by taking the intuitive guidances that it gives. By accepting the changes that occur inside of its process upon our bodys we choose to walk the high path up the mountain as you did Linda. We always have choice. Dreams are not mere fantasies they are a reality we are not trained to understand in our society. You " controlled the Kundalini " by choosing your path. Kundalini controls you by helping you to be " able " to climb that path. - blessings to you Linda. - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 It's awesome that you found that old journal Linda! Amazing to receive confirmation that something was leading you here over 20 years ago! I really wish I had always kept a journal because I was shocked when I read a K experience in mine from 1997. I was receiving intuitions and symptoms that I didn't understand. I just knew that something awesome was possible. It took almost another decade before Shakti made her appearance after my accident. I guess I had to "get hit by a truck" to finally wake up.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 " Awakening is as much a process as it is a goal. We come at it from many different angles and so it is a unique and yet shared process of maturation. One begins to understand this as the teachings of the Kundalini are received openly and without hesitation. " Once again, with the timely post. You do very well my friend. The process happens continuously, sometimes we are aware of it, sometimes not, sometimes it pokes its finger in your eye. I'm processing big time. It's beginning to look to me like K has already visited me. I was not ready. Things I went through, physical symptoms, etc. Some of it so bad, that I do not want to remember it. I think I was fearful and backed away. But there are other experiences that would make me think I would embrace it. Confusion reigns. It's not lost on me, that I got here because of my mother,<and I mean got to this group specifically> a true goddess in her own right. I was allowed to help her die. That lit the latest spark. Everything that had gone before was just that training. I am the door that sticks in wet weather, the window thats been painted shut. I am the flower that is just about to bloom, and I am the flower that every tom, dick and harry, bird and bee has been through and I'm wilted and dying. In my first post I spoke about being an old soul, I am getting very tired. What we do, this chase for meaning, is it all that important? In so many ways I am there already. In my minds eye I can hear my own last breath. This is all very much work. It is work we do for ourselves. Your agenda is most likely much different than mine. Your work different, but just as hard. I can't remember the movie, time travel. But the song, " these dreams I have of dying are the best I ever had " Shall I say resonates. Some of the stuff I have seems to indicate a return to the medical system, I'm not going to go. Been there done that, they hurt me badly. Not going there at all. I would prefer to think this is K working. I know Shakti is after me, everywhere I turn I see her, and if I don't, she taps me on the shoudler. When we bought this land it was mostly spruce and fir, the squirrels have built a wonderful oak grove out of that. it's an electrical spot and timeless when you are there. I think I may have been a druid in another life. Paula is. Jean will have me burned. And my ashes will grow the oak trees. Peace Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
