Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 I was the observer again. I dream the same dream three times or a continuing of the same dream... kept waking up and trying to remember what was taking place. I could not put it into words in my mind each time. I still cannot for the most part. I think I may have been having some re-wiring done or some such. LOL! It was something about making connections. I understood it as I was dreaming, but when I woke up it is too hard to put into words. Doing the Trataka meditation last night, left me in tears, but I don't know why. Last night, I was in a lot of pain, not just from the fire ants stinging me, there was a very sharp strong pain in my left side about 3rd chakra level. All the pain there is gone today, so maybe that was what was healed. When I was having the pain last night for many hours I was wondering if I was empathing that from my daughter. She has been having bad pain there for about a month or so. Maybe she was the one having the re-wiring surgery like healing done and I was observing her having this done. I didn't have a lot of clarity in the dream...was not totally lucid. Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda I have to tell you something, because you said this and it reminds me of a dream I had when I was 18. The way I explained it and still to this day explain it...Was like all the puzzle pieces in this life fit together and it was so simple, yet so hard to grasp. As soon as I woke up, I too couldn't grasp it and lost the " connection " . Let me know if that resignates with you? At the time I was involved in a church and felt I was getting close to God. So I thought about that dream all the time and wondered if that was a glimpse of heaven, so we must feel that when we die. Now that I'm older...10 yrs older, I realize that the " glimpse " is real and we don't have to die to get it. I believe it is the full Kundalini awakening and I had yet another glimpse of it while in India. Didn't know what it was at the time, so yeah I freaked out and thought I was going to die or already was dead. Long story short...I believe you are getting there and in due time, soon you will arrive! I send many blessings your way Linda, you are truly amazing!

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Hi Laura, your experience sounds amazing. I think my dream was more about a healing taking place, rather it was me or my daughter recieving healing, I don't know for sure. This empath thing is hard to understand. Many times in the past I have expeienced pain when one of my family members are having a health problem. Usually I am given directions to pray when this is going on. There has been the reverse of this to happen as well. The day before my appendix rutured in 2005, by grandson experienced my pain. We thought he may be needing his appendix removed and I prayed for him and his symptoms all stopped all of a sudden and I then begain experiencing the pain. I had to go the next day and have my appendix removed. The reason I don't know if it was my daughter or me is that I have been experiencing this pain in my left side off and on for over a year, but not as bad as last night. I really think it was about a healing... and thinking about it more, I think I was like mircroscopic and viewing inside the body and doing this or observing it being done.

That is really cool how your family is so connected in that way! I have to say, I'm not so sure I've experienced something like that, that I could know for sure that's what I was feeling. Sorry about the misunderstanding, I think I need to take a step back. It's really hard to do this with two small children. I hope you can find out for sure what's going on...sooner than later!

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 My daughter has had all kinds of test ran this last month or so. Nothing was found wrong with her except the chiropactor said she had a little curvature of the spine and there is a genetic defect with the little trianglar bone at the end. I forget what that's call... the bone where the kunalini is. Anyways, she has a hole in the tip but the doctor said that should not be causing any problems. But she is still experiencing pain,though.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 I can relate to that kind of pain...it is coming from the Coccyx bone located at the bottom of the tailbone. As for the curvature of the spine...almost everyone has a slight curve but does not interfere with with our daily activities unless we bruise it in some way. I can remember the Doctors saying I would have to be in a body cast to correct the curve but since money/insurance was an issue it was dismissed. But...I was not allowed to participate in GYM exercises or sports ever. I was also born with brittle bone syndrome...just to look at me would break a bone somewhere. I was always in some kind of cast. Not so much these days. The last and hopefully the very last was when I had double hip replacements done back in 2000. If we count toes then I have to say I broke a toe on my right foot. The 2nd one next to the little pinky toe. It was clearly my fault as I did not turn on a light and I hit the corner of my dresser on my way to bed. I learned quickly to leave a lamp on just in case. ________________________________ danceswithcats999 <crazycats711 Tue, March 9, 2010 7:02:10 PM Re: Another healing? type dream My daughter has had all kinds of test ran this last month or so.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Nice to meet and write to you Laura. I try NOT to acknowledge the not so good stuff that I've been through but it does creep in once in awhile. I feel that what I have been through is something that was predestined and lessons I had to learn for realization as well as awakening to kundalini. For one great thing...it made me face the anger that I held inside about my own limitations and imperfections. I do not wish ill health on anyone. I only hope that person does not have to suffer in agony. I also hope that they can find the courage ans strength to move above and beyond their self thought limitations into a much smoother mobile capacity without or as little pain as possible.

I sure am glad you are here! > > Love, > GCDeb I guess I should clarify a bit..I'll try not to talk about myself too much here. My real parents were into drugs, left a neighbor to watch us, the neighbor lady called cps and they came and took my sister and I to the hospital. My sister had a hard time keeping food down, would always throw up, I on the other hand was starved almost to death. My parents that " found " me and my sister were actually my grandparents, dad's parents. I'm sure they met up with us at the hospital and later on adopted us...so my grandparents are my parents when I speak of my parents. I'm in contact with my real dad and real mom, I am in a good relationship with them as of now, I have forgiven them and moved on...perhaps I could forgive my mother out loud...maybe she needs to hear that?

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Hi Linda, I also have curvature of the spine. In my case its hereditary and many people of Afro Caribbean heritage have it. Luckily I have never had much pain with it. I hope your daughter feels better soon. If I do have pain I find the 'Cat' pose in Yoga gives much relief, and I can stay in the pose for up to 20mins.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Thanks Iona, I don't think her pain is coming from her curvature, since it is in her upper back and is not all that bad of one. Her pain is from about the 3rd chakra level. The problem is she is worrying that she may have cancer in her left kidney because that is where her grandmother's cancer began. That partly may be my fault because I have been on her case for a long time about drinking so much diet sodas everyday and that the aspertame in it, can cause cancer. She has stopped the diet soda drinking. The doctor did not find anything wrong with her kidney. One doctor wanted to take her overies out just in case it may be something going wrong there. LOL! Of, course she is not going to do that, without knowing for sure something is wrong there. Because of all of her symptoms, I am wondering if her kundalini is not being activated and suggested that to her, but I don't think she paid that any mind. I did give her the Tibetans to do, but don't know if she paid any attention to that either. She needs to pay more attention to what her mom tells her! LOL!

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Re: Laura: " I guess I should clarify a bit..I'll try not to talk about myself too much here. " Hey Laura - thanks so much for sharing your story. I don't know yet how to be human and not relate things to my own experiences! It sounds like your parents/grandparents are wonderful people! I think that addiction is one of the greatest, if not the greatest challenge of humans in this world. I have thought about this topic from nearly every angle at some point in time. I have known a few people with extremely serious addictions who have had some of the most exceptional qualities mixed in with exceptionally unacceptable behavior. So, I have affectionately (with a touch of sadness) began calling them the " exceptional people. " Most of the time, they punish themselves plenty, so I'm sure that they have paid for their regrets. I am so glad that your parents/grandparents intervened when they did and you are here with us now! Love, GCDeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Denny This may sound a little forward of me but before I read your post, I had done just that. You see, I have hosted several O.I functions in the past - I called them Get-Togethers and the last one encompassed people from a couple of near by states also. It was quite big we had over 100 people there and it was a blast! But I did do some soul searching for the support group leader thing and something just didn't feel right about it to me. It is not just the fact that I am a terrible secretary with poor organizational and computer skills (which are needed for the position). But something else wasn't right. I let it go. Later, I happened to pick up a new book that a friend had given me just this week. It was about energy healing. I opened the book to any page to see what it had to tell me and, lo and behold, I was at a chapter on support groups! The author was explaining that not all support groups are necessarily a good thing when it comes to healing as it can hold a person back by creating an environment whereby the person feels that the ONLY people who could understand them or truly know them is somebody from their group or experience. In other words they remain stuck emotionally within the group and it is difficult for them to move on or truly heal. What did this mean? Was heading a support group in line with a K awakening? Would I really be serving a higher purpose? I had always known and felt that it was important for people with O.I. and their families to get together and share and connect - but would I be able to follow the guidelines and carry on the responsibilities of a support group and give it the type of direction and energy it deserves? Here was my answer: I have considered your offer to become a support group leader very carefully and unfortunately this would not be a possibility for me at this time.  I believe that since my computer and secretarial skills are poor it would be too much for me to keep the group up alone. I am more than willing to share what skills I do have with the group such as holding a meeting or another large get-together with the aide of the group. I also am very happy to volunteer as a contact person. Denny, I don't know what direction my K awakening is taking, but somehow I feel that the healing energy I would REALLY wish to bring there -would not be in line within the confines of such a structured setting. I think I would always be trying to push it in a different direction. Does this make sense to you? I do think we have come together for a reason but I'm not sure just what the Kundalini has in mind for us yet!  Love and Blessings Mary - " Denny " <dennynorton Wednesday, March 10, 2010 7:13:34 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Re: Another healing? type dream  Hey there Mary, Hmmm...this could very well be your sign and answer.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Most of the time, they punish themselves plenty, so I'm sure that they have paid for their regrets. GCDeb Deb, You are correct in saying this. My sister, aunt and cousin stuggled and are still struggling with drug addiction. My cousin has been clean for a couple years now, but I'm sure his struggle will be life-long. I have done these drugs myself too and deeply regret it, I didn't get as deep into it as my other family members, but it was scary and I did punish myself alot, I still do. How ridiculous, but yeah I need to forgive myself and move on. My situation was more serious as I was in the service and talking to pilots on the radio...I thank God everyday nothing happened. I'd probly still be in the penitentary (sp?) if something happened to a pilot. So I have been clean for over 6 and half years now, but I am nervous around my aunt that still uses. We used to be best of friends and were really close, it kills me that she is throwing her life away as I type. I just want to reach my hand out to her and pull her out of that Hell she is living in. Now I got myself crying. (deep breath....) Thanks for always listening Deb, this brings me healing and closer to the humble person I need to be.

I have thought about this topic from nearly every angle at some point in time. I have known a few people with extremely serious addictions who have had some of the most exceptional qualities mixed in with exceptionally unacceptable behavior. So, I have affectionately (with a touch of sadness) began calling them the " exceptional people.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Mary, I do understand your desire to be of service to lend a voice or awareness to people. But I also know that we should work with what we have within our limited health capacity. I applaud you for bringing awareness to an otherwise unknown community. I can remember serving on a hospital health board for 5 years until it became rather difficult for me, my own decline of health. I really did feel like I was a voice for those who could not otherwise speak for themselves. Plus my own " K " had kicked in and became rather cautious so to speak. My entire world shifted and consciousness was in severe play. I had difficulty in the beginning adjusting but I refused to stop my daily " K " exercises, that too passed eventually. I hope that, that minor dis-function does not relap and return. As for your direction...I would not worry too much about the reason. I think you know already but it has not bopped you on the head yet. Can't wait until you have your " aH-Ha " moment(s). I can still remember most of mine like it was yesterday...very remember-able and pure Bliss. I don't know about you but kundalini has a way of cleaning out the baggage we all harbor inside. I can honestly say my viewpoints have changed many times since becoming even more aware of kundalini and its mysteries. Keep me posted on what you decide. Whatever you decide will be honored and respected. Denny ****** I am more than willing to share what skills I do have with the group such as holding a meeting or another large get-together with the aide of the group. I also am very happy to volunteer as a contact person. Denny, I don't know what direction my K awakening is taking, but somehow I feel that the healing energy I would REALLY wish to bring there -would not be in line within the confines of such a structured setting. I think I would always be trying to push it in a different direction. Does this make sense to you? I do think we have come together for a reason but I'm not sure just what the Kundalini has in mind for us yet! Love and Blessings Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to be best of friends and were really close, it kills me that she is throwing her life away as I type. I just want to reach my hand out to her and pull her out of that Hell she is living in. Now I got myself crying. (deep breath....) " Hugs to you, Laura, and everyone here. Yes, I know that feeling of, " if you can't beat them, you might as well join them, " followed by the realization, " that didn't work out too well, either. " Amazing, though, how that can give you a different perspective on what they are going through. You start to understand how humble and nonjudgmental they really are. You get drawn in by the intensity of the laughter and the love, and then get the breath kicked out of you by the intensity of the pain. INTENSE - if I could sum it all up into one word. You only have control over what is best for you. You are to be congratulated for staying free and clear for six years. This takes a lot of courage. A LOT. A WHOLE lot. I had a breakthrough one night when I was watching an acquaintance have a really drunken moment and I realized that I was observing with curiosity because he was not MY anything. He was not my father or my husband or my child. That is when I realized that the trick to not getting sucked into the pain and embarrassment was to not identify myself with them. And then it dawned on me that I did not have to identify myself even if they were MY something or other. At that moment, I set them all free to live their own lives, create their own paths. And like you, I still deeply love them all and wish also to pull them out of the Hell. But I now know that I don't have that kind of power. And I now think that there is a bigger picture and this is most definitely not who they really are. This is just a temporary drama and their script is the role of the exceptional people who will be set free from the brain loops, one way or the other, when the drama is played out. Yes, deep breath! And big hugs to bright stars. Love, GCDeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
