Vocation & Kundalini

[Guest guest]

Hi again lovely ones ---

 

I am in a process of discerning what kind of vocation to pursue that is alligned with my spiritual mission and also supports a holistically healthy lifestyle. Although I currently have a paid hustle (non-profit administration/program director job) with a mission I am in love with, I am finding that the logistical demands are in opposition to what I feel the kundalini requires. Rather than going further into the specifics of my situation, I am interested in what y'all do to pay bills in this world and in any stories you can share about living as kundalini-activated/awakened beings in the world as it is.

 

Basically, I feel like retreating into the forest to grow food and make (herbal) medicines over a fire and be barefoot. Y'all feel me?

 

Love!'Ia, present in her exhaustion and attentive to the lessons at hand and thirsty for your responsesWindows Live™ Hotmail®…more than just e-mail. See how it works.

Oh, am I on the same wave length as you, Julia!! I'm still looking for

my " right living " as well. So much that will pay the bills, as you say,

have too many strings attached or they hurt someone, making it not a

right living. I know I wnat a " do no harm " service to others kind of

job that allows for love to be given freely/light spread to all but

doesn't stab them in the back at the same time, you know? I love arts,

healing and sevice that brings joy to people's eyes and hearts. But

where I fit in that, I'm still trying to figure out. For now, I'm just

playing the Mom and Wife role and trying to keep a home liveable. It

doesn't pay anything and sometimes it's a soul-destroying job but it's

mine.

 

Good luck!

Love,

Valarie

I can relate to this feeling in a big way. I am not working and have

not for a long time. Am looking for a job where I can make the money

I need for now. Trying to picture myself in a " job " is very

difficult. I feel like doing two things - one- running away and being

alone away from society and all its expectations and working with the

K program. How does one do the practice and work- have been wondering

this myself. I also at times long to be with other K folk thinking

that would help to have set times - as being in an ashram where there

is a schedule of what and when to do things. Sometimes I think that

would be a good fit for me until I can get myself in a routine. i

often oflate can not even think on anything - it is as if I am totally

empty of self - hard to sell one's self with those feelings.

 

And I find that the jobs that intrigue me do not pay much - not enough

to get me back on track so - dilemma - big dillemma.

 

I have worked all my life and since not working I see how the work was

literally killing me physically. mentally and psychologically as well

as emotionally and yes spiritually. It is frightening to think I will

again be in that situation unless I can find the right fit.

 

You are in a good place with a job - you can look around and decide

where to go and where you are being led.

 

I just keep trucking and praying that a good job that will help me in

my k process presents. Gotta Chop that wood and haul that water...

 

Blessings
