Namaste all,

 

I was very pleased to find out about this group; I have been keenly

interested in KY since I started meditating about 25 years ago. Since then, I

have had many wonderful spiritual experiences, but never a classic kundalini

awakening until January 1st of this year. I am a devotee of Shiva, and in the

past five years have managed to repeat the mantra "Om Namah Shivaya"

literally millions of times in an attempt to finally awaken the kundalini. I

was very discouraged because the only thing that happened was that sometimes

in my dreams I can fly (I am pretty sure this was a result of the japa). On

January 1st, I was sitting on my bed and my frustration reached a peak. I

then had an inspiration - I have always worshipped Shiva as formless

Consciousness, and I suddenly decided to worship Him in a personal way as if

He is a real being on Mt. Kailas. I prayed to Him with all my heart "Lord,

won't you please awaken my kundalini?" I then layed down, and immediately

noticed heat in my spine. Over the next half hour, the heat became so intense

that it was almost unbearable, and then I had a vision of Babaji who is

spoken of in Paramahamsa Yogananda's book "Autobiography of a Yogi" He looked

just like the picture in the book, and had a rising sun in front of Him. I

consider Him now to be a living form of Lord Shiva, and I am profoundly

grateful for the awakening of the kundalini after almost twenty-five years of

waiting. I feel this intense heat in the spine about three times a week,

almost always when laying down, and so far there has been no experiences of

deep absorption or bliss - just heat. I have managed to get to the point

where I can bear it for about an hour, and then I roll over and go to sleep.

As soon as I can't take any more, the heat stops. Looking forward to

exploring KY with the group -

 

Respectfully,

Dear Karl & Group,

I have been practicing Kundalini Yoga on and off for 7 years. In the past year

I had a Kundalini experience when it awakened and shot up

my spine and opened a window into a light of incredible love. It came as a

sonic boom and lasted for what seemed a millionth of a second.

Then during a meditation the next day I had a visit from the divine mother. It

was multi dimensional and made of pure light with colors

that were so precious. Since then I have not had any experience -- until now,

as I read Karls letter. My spine became very hot and still

is as I write this. What it this? Has anyone else experienced this?

I feel an intensed love with it. I wasn't looking for it when I read Karls

letter.

Thank you Karl,

Love, Debbie

Thanks for all your insightful information. As I stated early I am new to

yoga. I spoke with an instructor a few days ago and he suggested that I

start with Kundalini Yoga first. I have been experiencing body pain for a

number of years. My doctor believes I have fibromyalgia. I have avoided

pain medications throughout my life. Now that I am getting older the pain is

more intense. I refuse to use pain medications, that is definitely my last

opinion. I believe that yoga will work for me because it deals with my

mental as well as my physical health. Once, I again I thank you, for being

here for me.
