Kundalini and Enlightenment
We all hear of the concept of the "Enlightened Master", and I do believe they exist. However, awakened kundalini DOES NOT automatically make one an enlightened master. It just means that you've begun to access your inner energies and begin creating your life as you intended to live it when you came back here. Awakening the kundalini is NOT the end result or the goal. It's just a waypoint on your spiritual/emotional/physical development. It's like crossing a river. Now you're on the other side, but the journey continues.I've met people whose sole focus in life was the kundalini. That's all they want to study or talk about. While the study of kundalini can in fact encompass EVERYTHING, if you read everything only looking for the paragraphs that have the word 'kundalini' in them and ignore the rest... Awakening the kundalini is a part of discovering our true self.In western society we learn to wear a variety of masks, each of which represents a part of our learned personality. We LEARN to be different people for different situations. Awakening the kundalini clears all of that away, leaving the student (or victim depending on ones outlook) with a completely clean slate. After awakeing the kundalini all of the masks that you've learned to wear will have been completely stripped away and for most of us it can be a very frightening time. Suddenly everything that you thought you knew about yourself is different, and suddenly everything else looks different as well as you're not seeing it from behind the masks of your learned ego.What do you do with that? The simple answer (beware the simple answers in life) is that now you can become the person that you were MEANT to be, rather than the person that you were TAUGHT to be. Your next step on the path here is to *surrender* to yourself and be willing to go where you have to go and do what you have to do, to be the person you were meant to be. --- Robert Morgen is a Reiki Master who currently holds aBlack Belt in Hoshin Roshi Ryu.

Dimensional Shifts "Spirit is beyond the void of space. This realm, beyond the void, is not an empty nothingness; it is the womb of creation. -- Nature goes to the same place to create a galaxy of stars, a cluster of nebulas, a rain forest, a human body, or a thought... That place is Spirit." (6) Its Not What You Know, Its What You Do Knowing what is right and what is wrong in your own inner consciousness is insufficient. It is not the knowing of truth that transforms a person; it is the doing of truth that has an impact on you and on the other people that you interact with. You Lookin At Me? It's human nature to point a finger when we think someone else is guilty of something but yet we don't stop to consider that we too may be guilty of the very same thing we are accusing others of. Why is it so easy to turn a blind eye and overlook our own faults and yet so easy to see these faults in someone else? For some reason, we take pleasure in judging, condemning and criticizing others. Does it take the spotlight off us in drawing attention to someone else? Was There a Better Way? Whenever, we have a task or project to carry out don't we alwayslook for the most capable person to lead us? And if the task were supposed to follow a set pattern, don't we like to stick to time-tested methods that worked all the time? What Does It Mean To Hear Gods Voice?

Run Forest Gump Run In the movie "Forest Gump" we see Forest succeedin just about every aspect of his life. What weadmire most about him is his ability to overcomephysical obstacles all throughout his life. Butwhat we didn't see is Forest had much more goingfor him than just being naive and gutsy. We firstsee this in a scene where he is a child withbraces on his legs. His best friend Jennie and himare walking home one day and some boys are pickingon Forest and throwing rocks at him. Jennie yellsout, "RUN FOREST RUN", so what did Forest do? Heran, and ran and ran. He ran so much and so hardthat his braces broke from his legs and he neverhad to wear them again. Everything is Happening for the Good When we feel that something has gone wrong and are very much disappointed then people will console us saying "Probably, there is some good in whatever is happening to you". Here I would like to comment on this saying. Firstly, don't think that people console this way. It is the truth that there is some good in our present situation. The reason behind this is that how can God, our Creator, put us in trouble? It is lack of our faith that we are feeling that wrong has happened to us. Secondly, its NOT PROBABLY but DEFINITELY there is some good in our present situation. At this time, we may be feeling bad but sooner or later we will discover that whatever has happened to us was good infact. GOD 1.0: The Universal OS Welcome to the GOD 1.0 Tech Support Page.

Near Death Experiences: Is there a Logical Explanation? In an edition of Reader's Digest, I stumbled upon a compelling article, "After Life," by Anita Bartholomew. The article takes an intricate look into the controversial world of "after life" or "near death experiences." I found myself being hurled into the riveting article like a child in a candy store. In Ms. Bartholomew's revealing summary, van Lommel (a British researcher) made an interesting statement, "You can compare the brain to a TV set. The TV program is not in your TV set." Thus, where lies the consciousness?

Natural Talent Before Donna was born she took with her a dollar, Peter took with him a pen and Harry brought along a hammer. These were the only significant things that these people brought with them into their physical lives from birth. Why Sit Here Until I Die? The bible tells a story about four men who sat at the entrance of the city's gate dying with leprosy, an incurable disease which causes terribly visible swelling and sores on the skin, only then to eat inward to the bones. Because of this contagious and incurable disease, these lepers sat outside of the city because they were not permitted to live within the city. These men were faced with a fatal disease, were outcasts, and were starving because of a feminine in the land. Such a hopeless life and no perceived future, would make the average person throw in the towel and just give up on life -- but not these men. Whats Up With the Bad Reading? A lot of times when I am reading people on the site I notice people talking about having a "bad reading." By that they usually mean that the psychic pulled a so-called "bad" cards, such as the Devil, The Tower of the Ten of Swords, in answer to their question. Jesus: The Greatest Scapegoat It seems more people today are using the Christian god concept as a medication, a solution to all problems, and/or a drug that eases the most difficult of conflicts. The need for a god has never been more prominent than it is today. I was searching some things online earlier and found several sites dedicated to teens and Christ, and it seems that most of these sites were working within the ideology of "If you're hurting, let God help." |
