Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hello All, In response to letting our love guide us in this practice, I would like to confess that I have not been practicing the shaktipat instructions to a tee. I have no guilt about this as I am feeling guidance from the kundalini about foregoing some of the physical aspects of the practice, i.e. the 5 tibetans and some meditation periods. I have not been forcing will to do these things out of feelings of guilt, fear, or obligation if it doesn't feel right. I feel that committing to these practices out of habit and " discipline " , as I have been has only been adding denial to theses fearful and guilty feeling aspects of myself that have been seeking healing and release. Instead I have been consciously opening to the love and healing that is being given for me and I am being okay with allowing myself to not do this " perfectly " according to some imaginary standard. In allowing myself this grace I have been able to deeply feel these feelings and have stopped trying to whip them into shape. I am feeling them and accepting and lovingthem as the precious aspects of myself that that have been seeking love, and that I have been longing to reunite with. I'm no longer judging myself as doing this wrong or being a bad or lazy student of kundalini. I am not bad or lazy or wrong. I put myself through this all my life and practically killed myself with stress and anxiety to be the best student in school and to excel in everything. I am not doing this anymore with my kundalini practice according to the teachings given here. I will open to what is given to the best of my ability, but I will not force it anymore and create further pain for myself when pain is seeking expression and release from within me. I feel that as I open and am allowing myself to feel these feelings I have more access to my own inner guidance and reverence for this incredible blessing I am inside of. I have let these feelings guide me in the past and have reaped their fruits. I have also reaped the fruits of my ego's guidance and their teachings. I have no intention to do this all by myself and do not wish to separate myself from this group or from as a teacher and guide. I am just honoring what feels right for me at this time and I intend to continue to do so. This is about taking my power back and surrendering it all to my Shakti according to the guidance and teachings I have been given here and the lessons that have been specifically for me in this process. I do not feel that these decisions are coming from a place of ego. I feel that they are coming from my Shakti and higher guidance system. I am realizing also that I have at times overly depended upon from a place of fear of not being able to follow my own inner guidance and I know that this is not a protocol of surrendering to Chrism's ego. It is a protocol of surrendering to inner guidance of our individual kundalini aided by the guidance of Chrism's. I still have the utmost reverence and respect for this space, the support that is offered here, and Chrism's guidance, but no one can walk my path for me and I intend to honor my own guidance. I hope that I can still walk among those loving beings here and be guided by as I know I will enter areas where I will require guidance from without, but for now I am surrendering to my inner guidance and I am integrating the instructions to the degree that they FEEL appropriate as given by this guidance. I am opening to this as I can and I have great appreciation and gratitude for what is being given that I am able to receive at this time. I have just wanted to state this all here very clearly. I love you all.

Let your internal feelings guide you. Let your love guide you. - blessings and love to you! - chrism > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
