Guest guest Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 Hi chrism – thanks once again for the advice, guidance and friendship! Of late my meditation had been focused largely on resolving `mental blockages' from my past and seeking to improve the connection with my higher self – you know where I am coming from. I have been battling with some issues for a few years now and the turning point, the clarity, the change has literally come with a bang – like turning a sharp corner and not the slow grind that I was plagued with previously – I am still amazed by the rapidity with which the change has occurred. In successfully clearing those issues I have found an inner peace that is so hard to describe – like a veil has been lifted and suddenly things have become clearer - it is like I am finding myself for the first time. I feel I really now know what surrender, trust, acceptance are about (what I knew before were the textbook concepts – this is different). With that clarity has also come a sensation of insignificance - not in a negative or self-deprecatory way, but of being on the road to becoming all but also being nothing (again so hard to commit to writing). The realisation that the more I know the less I know if that makes sense, but also knowing that on this path I will achieve enlightenment, self realization and ultimately divine communication. I have also had this strong `input' to continue to follow the kundalini path but not to actively seek the kundalini as the vehicle – it will happen in its own good time as things unfold. I find myself being more of an observer with everything becoming an active meditation and not just confined to my normal specific periods of meditation if that makes sense. Within myself I find the change to be substantial, but when my wife asked me to detail what has changed I was limited to saying that I am finding that I just know things / am receiving answers and am so much clearer on where I am going and what life is all about, but to quantify that feeling? That is ever so hard – if my wife didn't love me she would have me committed! The timing of this shaktipat seems somehow significant. With the scatterfields being placed I have found an incredible inner calm where I am well coping with the routine challenges but from a different place devoid of the anger and stress that is characteristic of living here now. Almost an amplification of the change that was already occurring. Apologies for rambling – I wanted to share it with someone who understands and that someone is you! Thanks once again – blessings - Jonathan Quote
Guest guest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Posted September 16, 2008 Hi Jonathan, thanks for your post, and i didnt think it was rambling. I also like to ramble on with words. I enjoyed reading it, and can relate to much of what you say, particularly having gone through a long grind and finally reaching a turning point characterized by clarity, understanding acceptance, trust, etc etc..oh ,and the insignificance...increasingly I see myself as a tiny part of a vast process which is radically impersonal, yet I am also of profound importance, being a aware vehicle of consciousness... I dont know of the shaktipat affected me or not, as I didnt actively participate (not that I know of) but I did feel a tremendous smoothness in the power of kundalini in me the last week...kind of like a well matured brandy or whisky, as compared to cheap tequila in the past when the energy was totally throwing me around like a rollercoaster...
