Narasimhji: Why Kundalini Awakening impossible in women?

Respected Sir,

 

"who am I? What exactly is my "self"?" This may sound like

a stupid question, but do ask yourself this question everyday and,

believe me, it will slowly start making a difference."

 

I feel, you are 100% correct. These questions + a "Why am I

here?" would make it perfect. I believe, nomatter whether one is man

or woman, Kundalini Devi gets SO irritated when one nags oneself by

these questions that she has no other choice but to GET UP and SHOW

THE TRUTH!! The more frequently (and genuinely) one pesters the more

quickly She awakes. (She will think "What nuisance, I will show you

the truth once and for all, but be prepared for the consequences!!

So simple but still not SO simple..:-)).

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Jyothi

Kundalini activation does not make one a great person (in fact, a

rising Kundalini makes one more and more humble, especially after the

first few hurdles). If a particular group of people cannot have

Kundalini activation, it is no big deal and not an insult. So that is

not where I am coming from. But the bottomline is that what Prabodh

said is simply incorrect. I can accept such

which makes one think of oneself as a separate entity (as opposed

being the supreme Brahman that everybody in reality is). Kundalini is

normally in Mooladhara chakra and coils around Swayambhoo Linga.

One's ego consciousness binds one to the idea of self that

encompasses one's body, name etc.

female. And, one's ego consciousness is bound to body at very low

levels of self-consciousness (i.e. Kundalini in lower chakras). As

self-consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness, one's ego

consciousness is no longer bound to body. Then how important is one's

sex?

one does not need hatha yoga to activate Kundalini or make Kundalini

there are so many paths.

it is in the 14 different planes of consciousness (corresponding to

14 chakras and 14 lokas), read "Yoga Vaasishtham" (a dialog between

Rama and Vasishtha that was described by Valmiki). It is a

fascinating and masterly book. It is a masterpiece of Advaita

philosophy. In fact, I haven't read a better book - or a book that

influenced me more profoundly - in my life so far. Anyway, whether

you are pursuing Raja yoga or Jnaana yoga or Bhakti yoga or Karma

yoga or whatever, your Kundalini will rise only when your self-

consciousness reaches higher planes of consciousness (which can

happen in men and women). The way to make that happen is different in

different paths.

according to Vasishtha and he gave an example where a bird got

moksha. Moksha cannot come without self-consciousness reaching the

highest plane of consciousness (i.e. consciousness that one is simply

supreme Brahman and nothing else), i.e. Kundalini reaching Sahasrara.

If Kundalini can reach Sahasrara in a bird, why not in a woman?

down with nonsensical concepts of "self" that only take us further

and further away from who we truly are. One's concept of "self" (ego)

is what one truly believes one's "self" to be. By practice and

conditioning, it can be altered. Whether one succeeds or not, it is

worthwhile for every human being to ask oneself "who am I? What

exactly is my "self"?" This may sound like a stupid question, but do

ask yourself this question everyday and, believe me, it will slowly

start making a difference.

His statement can mislead and disappoint women. My urge to all women

is to continue on your earnest search for yourself. Life is too

short. And not only that, but human life is rare. Make the best out

of this life time. You are not limited to anything.

Respected Sir,

 

Thanks for your input. What I meant was a strong quest to

find out the reason for ones existence can lead to the churning of

thoughts in the proper direction. If I am correct, if one has an

intense wish to know the truth or to merge with one's devta, SHE

will herself guide the devotee to reach HER abode. One doesnt have

to do anything. This is what I believe and this is my experience.

Scholars can correct me, if I am wrong.

 

The questions are ofcourse related to the subject. But arent they

related to object indirectly? All the yogasanas are also related to

subject only. But the experiences as a result of it is finally

affecting the subject in the form of experience. Am I right? For any

effect there is a cause.

 

I just presented it in a humourous way. Hope it was not

misunderstood.

 

Regards,

Jyothi

intense wish to know the truth or to merge with one's devta,One's devta presents

the picture of a Devata outside of you. That thought itself stops from knowing.

"Who am I?" is the most important quest. No quest is bigger than it. I gave

subject-object example such that one can correctly associate in simple terms:

In analysing oneself:My Physical body is a subject or object?My mind is a

subject or object?Are my senses subject or object?Who is the subject of all of

the above? Yogasanas, sadhanas, and worship are to purify the mind to make it

question "Who am I?" . This is explained beautifully in Taitterya Upanishad.

For any

effect there is a cause. You are very right. But Realization isn't an effect.

Every effect is within the limits of time space and causation, therefore to

Realize it is not an effect. Neither it can be an experience as there is no

object. Subject and Object differentiation is not there. Therefore, a quest of

" Who Am I?" is not kundalini or sadhanas. Thanks and RegardsBharatOn 12/12/05,

Respected Sir,

Thanks for your input. What I meant was a strong quest to

find out the reason for ones existence can lead to the churning of

thoughts in the proper direction. If I am correct, if one has an

intense wish to know the truth or to merge with one's devta, SHE

will herself guide the devotee to reach HER abode. One doesnt have

to do anything. This is what I believe and this is my experience.

Scholars can correct me, if I am wrong.

The questions are ofcourse related to the subject. But arent they

related to object indirectly? All the yogasanas are also related to

subject only. But the experiences as a result of it is finally

affecting the subject in the form of experience. Am I right? For any

effect there is a cause.

I just presented it in a humourous way. Hope it was not

misunderstood.

Dear All Namaste

 

There were angry and some very angry reactions on this thread. It

seems that my understanding of Kundalini activation is different

than most of the people in this thread. My knowledge is stright from

the persons who have experienced KA and have told me many hidden

things in most logical manner.(Many have doubt about this but they

are not at fault. I am very poor at expressing what I know!)

 

There seems to be some confusion about the keywords such as

Moksha,Bhaktimarga and Kundalini. Basic aim of Sadhana is to obtain

gyana in Adhyatma. You can obtain knowledge by many means like by

Gyana,Raj,or Bhakti yoga. Kundalini yoga is subclass of Raja yoga.

Now to say that those who follow Gyana or Bhakti marga will also

expirence KA is very bold statement. Every marga will give you

ultimate knowledge but every marga will not be through Kundalini.

The person who has fully activated Kundalini and person who has

reached ultimate level in Bhakti marga will have same knowledge to

share. Both will be realized souls and will have same knowledge. But

there means will be different. Bhakti marga is more popular as it

is considered to be simple and safe. Most of the Santa are from

Bhakti marga. So many feel that Bhakti marga Santa must have obtain

knowledge through Kundalini activation.

 

Since Kundalini activation experience is very difficult to express,

Rishis have written Puranas and MahaKavyas(Ramayan & Mahabharat) to

explain those hidden secrets with the help of stories and

allegories. Once such story is of Kacha-Devayani-Shukracharya. It

ends with the statement that Mantra should not be given to woman.(

Read Gurucharitra). Shukrachary was forced to teach Sanjeevini

(Kundalini is temporary death and Sanjeevini is life after such

death) to his daughter. Shukracharya knew that this vidya should not

be given to woman but succumbed to the pressures put by his

daughter. Shukracharya dies in the process and Devayani learns.

Kacha as well learns as he was in the stomach of Shukracharya. Kacha

comes out in Bramha where as Devayani makes a strong request for

marriage which Kacha turns down. Devayani hence curses Kacha that he

will not be able to use this vidya(like BhargavaRama cursed Karna

in Mahabharata). In turn Kacha says that Devayani will not marry

Brahman(Brahma Janati eti Brahmana)i.e will not be able to control

Brahma. Finally Brihaspati curses to all Brahman that if anybody

teaches Mantra(Kundalini Vidya) to woman he will go Rairaiva Naraka.

 

Those who believe in this story in this way strictly follow it.

Others, who follow literally, suggest Vratas instead of Mantras to

women.

 

I was taught to read Ramayana and Mahabharata is this way. Just try

to understand why Rama asked Laxyamana to cut Stana-Nak-Kana of

Shoorpankha? or even, why Shiva and Brahma are enemies of each

other? In YogaVashista, why Indra and Ahilya story comes again and

again.(I dont exactly remember in which adhya as I read YogaVashista

seven to eight years back.)

 

Thanks a lot for your Time and Space.

Namaste Prabodh,

 

Just to clarify, I was not "angry" at all. This is simply a strong disagreement

and no emotions are involved, as far as I am concerned.

 

> Basic aim of Sadhana is to obtain > gyana in Adhyatma. You can obtain

knowledge by many means like by > Gyana,Raj,or Bhakti yoga. Kundalini yoga is

subclass of Raja yoga. > Now to say that those who follow Gyana or Bhakti marga

It is not a bold statement but a simple fact that people following Gyaana Yoga

or Bhakti Yoga too can experience Kundalini awakening.

 

In a book titled "Kundalini Tantra", Swami Satyananda Saraswati (a disciple of

Swami Sivananda) describes various methods of awakening Kundalini. Raja Yoga is

only one of the several methods mentioned. To say that Kundalini awakening

cannot be obtained by those not following Raja Yoga is definitely incorrect.

 

I personally know people who had Kundalini awakening thru different methods. One

person, for example, was a devotee of Krishna and had an amazing experience

involving an appearance of Lord Krishna at the time of his Kundalini awakening.

The same person had another amazing experience involving a Bhairava Yogi a few

years later, who curiously knew all about the previous appearance of Krishna

and Kundalini awakening and gave him further experiences by simply touching

him! This gentleman definitely was not making things up, as he was not the one

who started the discussion. He did not say anything about his Kundalini

experiences and it was I who first asked him if he had Kundalini experiences in

early 1980s. I saw something in D-20 and Vimsottari dasa and asked him. THEN

ONLY he opened up and narrated his experiences.

 

Interestingly, the basic experience is the same in people following different

methods, though some details are different. Electric explosion at the base of

spine, feeling of a live electric wire in the back, ecstasy, bliss, hearing

certain sounds, feeling of being propelled like a rocket, seeing some light,

merging with the light etc etc are common to several experiences I have heard.

 

In fact, there are cases of Kundalini awakening in all cultures and religions,

even among cultures in which Raja Yoga is not practiced and people don't know

about Kundalini. Kundalini awakening and rise happen when one's ego

consciousness rises above the normal state. One's religion, culture, creed and

spiritual path do not matter.

 

I fully stand by my statement earlier that Kundalini is nothing but the

chid-shakti of one's ego consciousness. Kundalini rise is nothing but one's ego

consciousness reaching higher planes of consciousness. Samadhi is nothing but

the ego consciousness rising to the highest plane of consciousness, i.e.

perfected consciousness that one is non-different from Supreme Brahman. You can

ask the saints who taught you about Kundalini awakening and ask them directly to

comment on my statements.

I humbly suggest that you should keep your biases to yourself and not rub them

on Maharshi Vasishtha.

 

In "Yoga Vaasishtha", Vasishtha taught several stories of women who were fully

enlightened and obtained perfect self-knowledge. Please see the examples of

queen Lila and demoness Karkati.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha

Respected Narasimhji,

 

 

Am I permitted to ask how you see Kundalini awakening

from D20?

 

Regards,

Jyothi.

Subject : Kundalini Awakening

Rating : High

OTHER Members knowledgebase : Basic

 

First, let me thank Mr.Dakshinamoorthi for nicely worded with wise

wisdom i.e. Message No. 67830.

 

Secondly, On a personal note I would request members with basic or

half knowledge not to venture into this advanced topics.

 

Third, the entire vedanta is about soul. The soul does not have

attributes of male or female.

 

Fourth, The first stage of any self/god realization is kundalini

awakening - this is irrespective of which path one follows - i.e.

Hatha, Jnana, Bhakti, Karma & Raja Yoga. If someone is limiting

kundalini to a particular path, only exposes his ignorance....etc..

 

extract of Mr. Prabodh Vekhande message No. 67887

Quote

Every marga will give you ultimate knowledge but every marga will

not be through Kundalini

Kundalini yoga is subclass of Raja yoga. Now to say that those who

follow Gyana or Bhakti marga will also expirence KA is very bold

statement.

Unquote

 

If one does not understand the linkages between this defined FIVE

paths of god realization, one would also end up in proclaiming

superiority of one path over the other akin to the caste system

prevalent in India even today.

 

As for the subject matter, members kindly wait for my detail post

on this possibly this weekend, which would put an end - to current

debate ( particularly for members who are disturbed by the

amateurish write up of a member(s) with half knowledge).

 

I would apologise of having used few strong words here. I would

also request members to rate themselves in the subject area on the

top of the message - so that one can read it and make a conscious

decision to ignore or delete or read it through the message.

 

I would request the moderator to play an active role in filtering

the content & topics being posted into this forum.
