Strange Energy Peaking at the Full Moon
ShaktiMama replied to Sundragon's topic in General Discussion
Good stuff. This is all normal. The purpose of internal cultivation work is to make one a more natural human being in tune with the Tao or All That Is...that includes nature. You are fine tuning your nervous system. Knowing this is normal should calm you down so the adrenaline release slows down. If the excitement is too much you can do 20 minutes of fast walking and it will burn of the adrenaline so you can sleep. But don't do it right before you sleep. Maybe a couple of hours before. Another is too open up the energy centers in your feet with your intention. Then let the nervous energy flow down your body into the earth and root yourself into the earth. See roots from your feet growing into the ground and into the center of the earth. Visualize the roots pulling of the energy of the earth into your body and filling your body. Do not fight...go with the flow. Become the witness to what is happening with you not get lost in it. Nice work. This is evidence of progress. -
This is a female opinion. File it under "What do Women Want" My two cents added: "Pornography is just 'fast-food feminine energy', it will always leave you wanting more, with little or no nutritional value. There is nothing ful-filling about pornography, it pales in insignificance to a fully embodied loving woman." Barry Long Porno and masturbation do not teach you how to fullfil and please a woman...it just teaches and reinforces to you how a hetero male (unless you like gay porn) gets off quickly. Porno trains your body/mind to respond to the female body and feminine energy in a specific way. A specific touch or visual of a woman and you spurt and your done. In my feminine opinion, masturbation + porn = LOSER especially if you are a slave to your desires and make this your life's work. I am not alone in this opinion. You are training yourself for premature ejaculation or impotence because the jerk and squirt method will fail you once you are in bed with a flesh and blood woman unless this woman buys into the whole porn mythos that a superior feminine energy gets men to shoot his load quickly. Unaware women buy into that whole porn mythos of what gets men off quickly and incorporate that into their mating strategies. So, in result, you see women acting and dressing (and down to young girls) like a male's dream of a porn star. It becomes a vicious, replicating cycle. Both genders are under served by this. So move your sexual practice from jerk and squirt to making love with mastery. All things in moderation. The rewards are great. Hopefully, this will give you some motivation to become a master in the arts of love. Here is a good books for beginners like you: http://www.amazon.com/Enlightened-Sex-Manu.../ref=pd_sim_b_3 David Deida uses Doaist and yogic techniques in his teachings but refines them for use in modern times and makes them easy to understand from a meditative, seeing a woman as Goddess approach and seeing yourself as an Enlightened Lover.

Regarding you can't bottle chi. But you can measure the effects of chi and make inferences. One example is therapeutic touch. As always there are some detractors but it is easy enough to teach in a 30 minute class and people can figure it out for themselves. I have taught many people how to do this simple technique. I taught myself how to do it and you can teach yourself. http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/therape...ouch-000362.htm I was going to go back to school and get my PhD in Nursing by focusing on the role of nitric oxide in healing as activated by energetic healing techniques. But the problems of getting consent working with live subjects that I had to draw blood levels on NO before and after an energetic treatment was just too daunting and time consuming for me. I got the idea after attending a conference on Anodyne therapy using infrared light for healing. It was shown to increase NO amounts which caused nerve regeneration in diabetics. This marked the return of feeling into extremities which were once numb to touch. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide http://www.anodynetherapy.com/ (turn down your volume) ooops... i just wanted to add that nitic oxide is a potent vasodilator so it increase blood flow by widening the delivery system to damaged areas. Increased blood flow means better Oxygen delivery and also delivery of cellular nutrients. This is what causes the healing. I suppose i could go back and do the research again but this time taking thermal pics of before and after test subjects. There should be increase heat at the site treated. Come to think of it...when I have treated people with qi sometimes they get a mild red flush all over their body as there capillaries vasodilate. Like a calmer version of what happens in a niacin flush. They also say they feel warm. -

*shrug* whatevah who needs to be impressed? ...i only use what works... and discounting something because of bad PR hyperbole?...eh...look deeper... I read it almost 20 years ago before there was a PR machine on a recommendation of a friend.... you are pretty good with the hyperbole yourself....and using intentional contention...don't know if you think it's a good teaching tool or if that is just your natural personality... its an old debate tool...get people into their emotions and it is easy to knock them off center...it is also a good martial arts tool... slap people across the face quickly and they lose their groundness and center quickly ...fall into their emotions and it is easy to punch them down... people are easy to manipulate when they fall into their emotions -

Thanks... I appreciate being here even though it can be a bit rough and rowdy like the cantina on Tatooine with energy bolts flying everywhere haphazardly.

Any good chi gong practice or internal energy cultivation with a good teacher who understands the jing, chi, and shen aspects will help balance out your energies and healing is a side effect. One of the exercises Santi is talking about are the female deer exercises which can make a women's breasts grow larger. Kundalini development can also heal or actually rejuvenate the body. I cut down my involvement on lists cause they take up too much time and a lot of people want to fight with me to prove their points rather than do any actual practices. I post on this one in this forum although I am thinking of cutting back cause it is a time eater for the energetic return that comes back. My combat flame days are behind me. I have my own international list since 2003 for general kundalini development: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Kunda...SupportNetwork/ It's a lot quieter than this list. I own a list that has to do with kundalini and sex started in 1998 but I have turned that over to a senior student and do not post there much unless people have a question that the moderators can't answer. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kundalini_sex/ I am a non martial member of Hoshin Budo Ryo advising in my capacity as an expert on Kundalini Development for martial artists. Their forum is closed except to members. http://www.hoshin.us/ I am also a full instructor for the Kundalini Awakening Process under the Directorship of Santiago Dobles and I post in their members only forum for the students and grads. My skype ID is susanacarlson. Sometimes we have impromptu discussions after shaktipat events and a lot of teaching and questions go on there. The archives are rich resources to look through as are the files.

Clever, no. Years of experience and training, yes. Never thought of being a sales trainer cause I really hate selling stuff. You either want it or you don't. Otherwise, don't waste my time. Clever doesnt answer your inquiry.

If someone in the halls at school keeps elbowing you in the stomach do you stay silent or do you speak up? In what manner do you speak up if you do? It's the same on an energetic level. Also one does not have to do a reading to come to the inference that someone is off balanced. One just has to observe behaviors and speech to make that inference. If behaviors and speech are off balanced then one can be pretty sure that the energy is off balance. Santi and I sometimes get a deeper read on people inadvertently because it's really hard to ignore something that is shouting its existence at you from an astral level. This is not unlike living next door to a noisy neighbor. Intensity can push over thresholds of boundaries we have set. Pounding away at someone with energy infused words (whether intentional or not...all words have an energetic signature unless one is a master or adept) can feel like living next to an inconsiderate neighbor to the point of feeling like you are being attacked. Santi and I have a fair number of students who are also tbums. They have backed away from the list for now because during the beginning stages of their k development they become hypersensitive to energy that flows through everything. They actually become physically ill because words feel like blows and punches. I can attest from personal experience in early development that words can feel like an actual knife being plunged into my body. I even have students who will not participate in my own free forum for support because they have become hypersensitive to negative energy exchanges. Think of how sensitive people are when they have a sunburn. All feelings on the skin are amplified. This is the same with early k development. It is actually a siddhi we must learn how to control. This siddhi can be a cause of real suffering in the newly awakened kundalite/student. I think if people knew how potent conductors of energy the written word is the general tone of engagement on the tbums would be a lot softer out of compassion. It is a transient problem and we all learn to cope with it in some way. I get an instant read on people that includes color of eyes and other physical characteristics. That is normal to all people. Mine is hyperacute because I am a nurse and good assessment skills are what make an effective nurse. People who developed their parasensing abilities get an instant read on someone but it general like off balance, sweet, sharp, etc. Saying someone is off balanced is such a thing. Going deeper and saying other stuff is not. It's a fine line to walk and i have to rely on if it feels offensive to me to look deeper without consent. To some it does not but for me it makes me physically ill to violate other people's psychic and personal boundaries without consent unless I am being attacked. Fortunately, it runs on automatic pilot and I don't even notice until someone makes an issue of it...like wanting me to read someone.

Depends on the desire and it's intensity and the context in which it is expressed. My awakening was not sought or desired for I did not know that such a thing existed until it happened. Many, many people are like that. How can you desire for something that you did not know existed? What people may desire may influece awakening. For example, I had a life long desire since childhood to be one wtih God. My desire was certainly fullfilled to overwhelming capacity beyond any dreams that I could have by kundalini awakening. In the end, it is up to Shakti Kundalini who decides when it is time. There is some kiss we want with our whole lives, the touch of Spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild Darling! At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face into mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door, and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window. sufi mystic - jelaluddin rumi - 13th century You are welcome and Merry Christmas to you too.

ShaktiMama replied to goldisheavy's topic in General Discussion
I think, lino, money/barter is just a representation of energy and flow. It is also just a tool so it is neutral. How we view a neutral tool gives fascinating insights into one's personality and character. It is a reality check for me. -
Between Santi and I we pretty much have the bases covered on what can be seen. I perceive him as sweet and genuine at first contact...just as if I would see that someone has blue eyes and brown hair. To go deeper without permission is rape. Santi and I only use our skills for healing and protecting ourselves and loved ones. This is a sign of advanced development not necessarily spiritual maturity. He is no threat to us nor has he asked for our help. How one uses their skills they have will be an evidence of spiritual maturity. Does one perform on demand just to satisfy an inquirer's curiosity? Does one use their skills for service instead? Either learn how to do this yourself or hire a street corner psychic to do this for you. I think you already intuit your target's level of ability. Just know he probably knows that someone is trying to invade his privacy if your inquiries continue. We are all connected in the spirit...like spiders on a web. A movement on one side of the web travels all the way to the other side of the web. Maybe it would be best if Santi and I offer protection to him from further inquiries and invasions of his privacy. This is really offensive to Santi and I that you ask us this. It's like you are asking us to rape someone. Maybe you don't feel that way but we are the one who possess the skills you seek to exploit. It is this level of ability that makes what you ask us to do feel like rape. You have no understanding the harm it will do to me and Santi to do sorcerer's work. It is better for you to ask yourself why you have this great desire to cause such harm to someone and ourselves. You have no understanding of the consequences to yourself and to Santi and I of what you are asking us to do.

Merry Christmas. May Peace become real to you and live in your Heart.

How To Awaken Your Kundalini 101 This is very simple. Do not confuse simple with easy. There are three simple practices that when done in combination together will awaken kundalini in about 90 days. Follow the directions. Don't deviate or I can't guarantee anything. But this is free teaching so I can't give you a money back guarantee. You must practice 20 minutes a day, twice a day. Undertake at your own risk without a guide. The safest way to do this is in a group with a guide. 1) Buddha's breath also called Baby's breath or also known as abdominal/belly breathing. 2) Secret Smile: google for instructions in Path Notes of an American Ninja Master 3) Microcosmic Orbit The goal is to do all three at once. Do NOT leave the Secret Smile out. It is necessary for mental, physical and spiritual health during this practice. I am not revealing anything that has not been revealed in Path Notes already. Basic Safeties Tongue up touching behind the back of the upper teeth where the teeth meet the gums when you practice. You must do this to avoid getting chi head or headaches and/or mental imbalances. Keep hydrated with water. Kundalini energy is HOT and will fry your kidneys and adrenals. Take lots of vitamin C for the adrenals which are quickly depleted of their Vitamin C stores with this practice. An acupuncturist can be your best friend. Practice with a group if you can so they can help you stay grounded in reality when the process kicks into high gear. If you have difficulties or need a group or sangha to be a touchstone I have a support group that is free on the net you can join. Here we have people of all levels abilities and of different spiritual paths who practice around the world who will be helpful for you. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Kunda...SupportNetwork/ If your mental/emotional, physical and spiritual bodies are relatively clean you will have an easier time than if you start with an alcohol, drugs, smoking types, anger habits. Kundalini amplifies the character. If you were an asshole before kundalini, afterwards you will be wide and gaping said Dr. Morris. But if you were loving and gentle before you will be even more. Kundalini Shakti can be a fierce and brutal Mistress if you resist her directions. If you can't surrender and relax into the process you can suffer greatly so don't take this process lightly. So don't do it if you don't want your life changed forever. Don't do it if you can't come with an empty cup to be taught by Shakti or you will be miserable. Why do I say this? Because there will be a time in your practice that effort becomes effortless and Kundalini will take the reins and do the whole process for you. It will cause you to mediate, it will cause spontaneous chi gung forms and asanas, pranayamas. If you can't trust in the wisdom of Kundalini Shakti...it will take much, much longer. If you can relax into the process and persevere.. Nirvikalpa Samadhi may be your reward one day. If you carry through and succeed in having kundalini activate then know the journey has just started. You will either despise my name for revealing this to you or be forever grateful. KAP 1 is more than just these three practices. It has been refined to deliver a much more smoother, quicker, and controlled awakening but you can do it with just those three practices above but it can be a brutal process. Drugs, sex, childbirth, prolonged trauma or shock whether physical, emotional,mental, or spiritual will awaken kundalini. Did I say this can be a brutal practice and you could really hurt yourself? Merry Christmas and Good luck, Susan

A question for women regarding the opening of the "lower" gates
ShaktiMama replied to Encephalon's topic in General Discussion
yes....chi is led by the mind -
Are you talking about the photo that someone made of me to look like a jedi? That was from 06. The one on my website is from 06. Yes, reversing the appearance of aging is something that happens as the endocrine system starts to rejuvenate when the k starts awakening. It also happens with effective internal cultivation. It also happens with most of the processes we teach in KAP. The body does change on the outside to reflect the internal changes happening inside. One can see a definate change in the texture of the skin, the quality of the eyes, the clarity of their personal energy for example. It is not unusual for female students who are post menopause to start menstruating again and get pregnant. One male senior student was just relating to me how revved up his metabolism has become from his jurus practice.

I looked at those videos you posted. His energy is very sweet and genuine. I wouldn't mind meeting him. I have people ask me all the time to scan people. Correct, it is a deep invasion of privacy whether a person is famous or not. One does not loose their personal rights based on status or celebrity. That's an ethics violation. If I treated someone differently because of status in a hospital I could get fired. Sure, people do it all the time, but I am not comfortable with it at all. Invasion of privacy is considered an affront to human dignity. That is what makes it wrong in my eyes.

Yes, siddhis, are side show attractions on the way. Many get lost on the journey in them. That doesn't negate their value. Many kundalites have siddhis in the beginning of their awakening...some are quite astonishing. One can get easily sidetracked and lost. As the person progresses on the path siddhi manifestation fades for awhile in many. Farther down the road the attraction also fades. Then one day the siddhis start to return but they are then viewed as just a natural extension of being a complete human being as normal as taking a breath. Then those siddhis are used for service. I can think of one such example. A friend of mine is a doctor of medical qigong and a yogi. His siddhi is this remarkable ability to synthesize info of a complex, esoteric nature and relate it in a way that makes it easily digestible to many. He is one of the editors/authors of Dr. Jerry Alan Johnson's medical qiogong text book series. We who have those books have benefitted from this siddhi that developed in this kundalite with mature energy.

So..my apologies... It's easy to feel hostility in this forum. No, I was not thinking of a comeback for Drew. I have not even engaged Drew regarding charities. And no, I am not enlightened..nor have I ever claimed to be. I have no boys. Yeah...we do donate the money. But you will have to take that up with Santiago because it goes through him. It is interesting how people are critical...we are damned if we do donate money...we are damned if we don't. This all could have been taken care of by a respectful email off list to Santi, IMO instead of making this an issue of international proportions. It wasnt a diversion. I wanted to know about that number because it's only a stat and stats are notorious for being off base and used to generate and manipulate emotions. Like 1 woman is raped every 10 minutes in the US. That is a lot of people to have no one notice. Simple observation will show that is suspect. So taking it out to its full expression shows in a way...is this really so? So even if you have a link.. it doesn't make the stat correct. 4.2 million people killed every year in Asia it quite a huge number to blame on terrorists or any group. Since there is roughly 3.8 billion people in Asia, that number is 11% of the total population. That really made me sit up and take notice. So about 1 in ten people are murdered over in Asia just by terrorism alone? No one notices that in Beijing or Mumbai or any other major city. The other stuff is not so surprising. Charities I am familiar with how they work and manipulate the system both on an local level and in the US. From a public health perspective that is what caught my eye first. If it is true, then it is a public health/international emergency. Make it real...if one person in 10 was dropping dead on the streets of your town 24/7 dont you think people would notice?The other stuff is not so amazing to me as a nurse. so now we know were both of us are coming from... welcome to the group Please clarify your comments made in your two posts if you will: "I don't know about Mr. Vajrasattva" "I have purchased two ebooks from Uma Tantra and know Santiago quite well. I have also seen some youtube videos. " Eh...so you are a hypocrite...we all are. I like that. who said the all the roads were even straight or uniform...you are correct

will do... I am curious... 8 people a minute is 480 people an hour. 480 x 24 hours=11, 520 people a day 11,520 people x 7 days = 80, 640 people a week killed by terrorists 80, 640 people a week x 52 weeks =4,193,280 people killed a year by terrorists in just Asia. Are you sure? And you just joined the board an hour ago? And you zipped through 32 pages of widely divergent reading to zero in on this? Silat is a fairly esoteric martial art, not well known. And sufism is pretty esoteric also. If you didnt know Vajrasattva...why pick silat or sufism as an example when on this board it is well known his association with those two practices? just curious...

no problem, lino. Virtue i use as is discussed in chinese philosophy, medical daoism as inner power, integrity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_(Chinese) This could be a very long discussion. Much has been written about it. What delights me about the Chinese concept of De or virtue is that it is tied to the health of the body, ie. virtue or inner power in an expression of healthy constitution and a by product of internal cultivation. It is not the christian morals viewpoint where it is a problem with your character or soul. I find that very liberating in personal practice. For example, when the liver is tense with turbid chi it is indicative of rage and resentment. Using acupuncture, prescription qigong, herbs, energetic healing and diet it is possible to change one from the attitude of anger to one of compassion and gentleness. When I first started working on my liver with a skilled doctor of acupuncture I would have dreams of murder and war and killing 24 hours after the treatment. This was the result of the pathological chi being released from my body. Now there is a remarkable lack of tension in my life years later and more gentleness than I could ever have thought possible. What is so liberating is that lack of compassion, or gentleness or wisdom is a function of being out of balance energetically in the body, not a lack of morals or bad character. It is treatable by more that just being meditative or being yelled at . It feels really good when we are naturally expressing virtue. The body is relaxed and happy. These are pretty good pictures and explanations. http://www.maywa.co.uk/the-five-organs/ "The unexamined life is not worth living" - Socrates We are perfect in who we are inside but this meat suit that we use to interact with our world and neighbors has outdated programming that is left over from being a child. Part of that programming is what some call the ego. So we have to retrain or rewrite the program to function with more awareness in our world for our lives are not about survival. It's our wetware that needs to be retrained or transformed. It is is alive so we don't kill it for we kill a part of ourselves if we do. Were you there the night I was teaching the Ho'oponopono process? I might have missed seeing you because there was like 55 people there. If not you can come to the next time we do it. I do not teach the process that is floating around the internet and on you tube so don't bother googling it. That's pretty watered down for it is not connected to any lineage. It is effective on a very surface level but it's like comparing a McDonalds hamburger to Kobe beef. It's for mass consumption. This would certainly help you with your difficulties you express here. If you have taken the class just contact me off list and we can meet in Skype and I will go over it with you. If you haven't taken that class from me it is open by donation to those who have taken KAP 1,2 and PSD. One really has to have a basic understanding of how the energetic universe works to get the greatest benefit. Those who don't seem to have difficulty grasping the effectiveness of this tool. Or as my native Hawaiian Kahuna friend and mentor who taught this to me 19 years ago said, "It's like putting an Uzi in the hands of a child." You can ask some of the other grads on the KAP forum who have instituted the process in their daily practice what this process has come to mean for them. do not worry, lino. I know life has been hard for you but diligence on the path is always rewarded. It is just frustrating when it is not on our own demand schedule. We keep doing our practice...walking forward...one baby step at time if necessary. It's not a race. There is no where to go for you are already Home. edit because it posted it self twice

as you wish... you did write me and ask how to awaken kundalini...so you sound disingenuous to me...i gave you three simple techniques that I told you if you practiced for 20 minutes twice a day for 90 days, I can guarantee...if you genuinely and with a good heart do the practices your kundalini will awaken all roads lead to rome good luck

It is not a question of right or wrong. It is a question of time management. I can do only so much. Will you help them? I am not a social worker or a therapist or a nun. I won't work outside of my area of expertise. It's unproductive and ineffective and serves no one. I can direct them to where they can get help. -
Good Buddha quote...I tell that to my students. Live the empirical life...find out for yourself...don't let anyone tell you what is up without trying it out for yourself. I am an authority unto myself. Are you your own authority or do you borrow it from others? I will drop a name here. I was a friend of Jerry's of nonduality.com when he was starting that site. How do I know him...we became friends on a kundalini list back in 1997. I watched that non duality list of his grow as an offshoot of a list that was devoted to kundalini by kundalites who wanted to explore non-duality. He then eventually created the website. So you can gather all the info you want but how is that info expressed in your day to day life? Since Santi and I will be in London next month teaching,come meet and play. The Friday night at the University is free. We will be talking, sharing, doing kundalini meditations, giving Shaktipat. There will be some t bums there too who are taking the class with us. So check it our for yourself. It is always more fruitful and illuminating to come out from behind the internet mask into the real world and see there are real people out there. All are welcome to come. how to get there is listed on our site: http://www.kundaliniawakening.com/london-january-2010.html
