Namaste, Andrew

 

I've got that scientific mind going on too, but luckily my thinking has shifted

toward the right hemisphere during the last year. Also, I guess attributes like

impatience and unwavering male determinance aka " tunnel vision " :) aren't all

bad as they brought me here so fast. Maybe you too? But now could be the right

time for me too to start taming them.

 

How have you changed during the time you have been here? How did you end up

here?

 

Btw, I don't always write " blessings " or " love " in the end of a message because

it would not always be sincere. I'm getting there.

 

Blessings =),

shaktipat refocuses me on what I should be thinking and doing, then I spend time

afterwards doing it. It was the hardest part for me to accept that I wouldnt be

clicking my fingers and then speaking to God =)

Maybe two this time? Or have you not moved? Im currently trying to let go of

that side to me as well, the need to have a yard stick for everything

(scientific mind doesnt seem to work well with this!). The more I think about it

the more I feel that trying to measure my own progress is what actually ends up

holding me back.

I ended up here through initially starting Reiki. Strange as it sounds my dog

had arthritis and I was desperate to do something to ease his pain. A friend

suggested I try taking up Reiki to help him, so I did. I guess that set me off

down a path I wouldnt otherwise have gone down.

 

A year later I came across a website offering kundalini reiki, I didnt have any

idea what the first word meant so I did a bit of digging, and here I am. Theres

a lot more too it than that but thats the very short version =)

 

Ive changed in so many ways, all of them good. My relationship with my wife has

improved (I don't think I was that great a person before...), Im a much better

person all round, I live with others in mind and I finally feel like Im not

desperately searching for answers because they are all here!!

 

How about yourself?

Hello Again!

 

That last part about " Im not desperately searching for answers because they are

all here!! " is exactly how I've been feeling lately. It's strange to find all

the answers to my questions in one place. Especially after looking actively for

them for 2 years :)

 

Which brings me to how I ended up here. I tried homeopathy about 2 years ago and

it put me first in a total physical collapse. Soon after my body had crumbled,

so did the mind.

 

The society structures here offered no help for deppression except pills :) How

great is that! So I had to start looking for answers my self. I'm so grateful

for the internet!

 

It's like back then I was Neo and chose to swallow the red pill :) Almost

everything I thought was everything was nothing. Illusion.

 

Thinking back, many of the symptoms I associated with the depression actually

had something to do with kundalini. If I only had known then!

 

I think reiki and depression are pretty common ways to start on this path.

Personally I probably needed the harsh lesson because my paradign of the

universe was so incompatible with kundalini (agnostic, darwinist).

 

I was thinking of becoming and english teacher at one point too. I hope it's

enjoyable to you, and wish you the best in the future =)
