Guest guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 When you asked these questions a year or so ago the answers seemed easy. With time and more understanding the full reality attached to them is not quite so simple. Expectation – that is the easy one to answer even if the answer is as complex as the rest. I seek enlightenment, self-realisation and ultimately divine communication. Surrender? That's getting hard. I am working on surrendering my ego, to being driven and guided by my high self, trying not to be directed and motivated by my conscious mind – but its not easy. Breaking the conditioning of a lifetime of being in control or actively taking control of most situations to stand back more as an observer and letting others find themselves is hard at times – especially when under pressure. Service? I used to do a fair bit of healing – it seemed easy – until a number of terminal patients died quickly. I didn't know then what I know now, and their deaths shattered my confidence – I thought I was killing them. They died fast, in reduced pain, and I understand now that I helped to release them at a time when they needed that release. I want to go down that healing road again but I need to convince myself first that I can really help in that regard. Time is against me on a day-to-day basis – I run a conglomerate in a collapsing country – there is always something that needs to be done urgently. However I am in a position to influence many in the community at large in addition to many employees – I believe that the greatest service I can offer is to help them find themselves, to find their true paths, to achieve their true and full potential. I want to direct and help as many as I can down the path of self-realisation and enlightenment and, while it is not an easy path I feel that that would be the greatest service I could offer!

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hello Jonathan,If I may please, there is no real surrender - just letting go. Run on instinct, finest fuel in the universe, ask for guidance each morning and direction for the best for all (hopefully you will be included ;-), keeping asking for guidance as often as you can or remember to do so) and let it rip. " there is a time and tide in the affairs of men " - get out of the way, you could be holding back the dam that will wash all clean!Even more seriously, STOP. Stop and listen, then ask, listen to that inner voice. I had a client who told me that he thought Jesus Christ directed him in one of the greatest unfoldings in the last century. Not a fly was harmed, peace came. We are all one, when reading this direct your head into your pocket and only take it out when you want to contemplate on something. When finished put it back. It will learn to appreciate its time with you and the space of contemplation. Until then use instinct, your body knows, your mind just thinks it does.

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hello Jonathan, You are in the whirlwind. The whirlwind has become you. No matter the obstacles now you merely allow and surrender to that force within. It will give you much intuitive guidance. It will help you and it will change you and there will need to be some flexibility by you to incorporate some of these changes. Surrendering your lifetime of habits is not only possible but in the case of Kundalini it is a distinct probability. Use what word or phrase you wish to indicate surrender. Allow, allowing, given in, take a step back, get out of your way, etc. Surrender is a fact in my experience. It is as much of a fact as the actions of the ego are a fact and indeed is an action of the ego to begin with. It is a conscious choice to feel the impetus towards surrender with the interaction of the Shakti within you and to have that interaction with the Shakti feel you and in this communication the guidance is given. You are doing well Jonathan you are opening your heart to others and to yourself. You are actively helping people under very hard conditions and you are giving service as a way of life. The healing of illness will come and is already even an aspect of your expression but Kundalini will change the dynamic and amplitude and remove much of the doubt and ego driven concerns from the process thereby freeing upon the effectiveness of the healing process. So no worries there. You have already begun your teachings of others by the questions that you ask. It inspires others to ask the same questions and in asking them they to come into the awareness of where their personal options will lead them. Enlightenment is a many faceted jewel and we come into the facet(s) as is best for us as individuals. So we are opening the options for others by opening them within ourselves. I see you doing this and I also see Shakti has responded. It may respond in them by virtue of your guidance towards them Jonathan. Now pay attention to the dreams that will come to you no matter the previous frequency of memory or retention. You will remember Shakti orchestrated dreams. Bring them here to us if the meaning is confusing or to me if it is of a private nature and we can help you discover the options being presented to you. - blessings to you Jonathan! - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Hi chrism - many thanks for that! You refer to the whirlwind - what exactly do you mean by that? blessings - Jonathan , " chrism " <> wrote: > > Hello Jonathan, > You are in the whirlwind. The whirlwind has become > you.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Often the rising of the Shakti and Shiva wtth in is felt as an ascending vortex of energy rising. Or stationary and swirling. The Sufi's saw this as an example of the whirlwinds of sand in the desert. Kundalini is often experienced as an ascending circular in movement conscious presence or energy. The automatic movement at the base of the spine that gently expresses as a circular movement when meditating is one example. The snake dance of the Shakti inspired kind - not the entertainment examples - but the Shakti induced expressions upon the human spine are another example. I say this to you as I feel your K responding within you. -blessings Jonathan. - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
