Mystress....
 
Just wanted everyone to know I am in touch with DanG and he is doing 
great.... he has had to change his internet service and has a new email 
address, but has asked, at this time, to not divulge it.  He is still 
integrating, and I feel, from having many conversations with him, that he 
is doing just fine.  He plans on re-subscribing once again to the K-list, 
but is taking a quiet break at this time from communications.   He's a 
real joy to talk with, and I'm sure it won't be long until he begins 
lurking, then communicating with the K-ites once again.   I have let him 
know that postings have come in concerned about him and sending lots of 
love at him....
 
BTW, I've done his astrology chart re: K windows, and it was going as 
K-razy as  
Dan RF's - much of the same stuff going on.  I've done quite a few and 
still finding the same thing.  This was a much bigger project than I 
expected, so those of you who asked for their chart to be done, I ask 
that you please be patient with me - I will get to all of you soon.  Such 
interesting things I'm finding!
 
Love,

Yeah, there's a lot of "I"'s in here, but just take 'em as the zen way of 
reverse effort:  =)
 
 After reading this I am hesitant to hastily recieve this 
sacrament, of which I just recently think I have found a source for. 
I think that I will allow my "gradual" awakening to fruit more before I 
jump of the cliff(which I think it may like at this point).  The 
environment I live in(wild college house) would make it EXTREMELY 
difficult to follow the karmic laws 100% justly.  I think I would break, 
which I am working on now: meditation on my own thoughts and actions. 
So actually for this, my environment poses a good challenge to weaken my 
ego, but after a shaktipat, from what I just read, I will end up in a 
mental ward!!!  I am working on more creative dimensions of my being like 
jazz guitar(improvisation!) and drawing so I DO have outlets for the 
excess energy I have now, in addition to the plain fact I love doing 
these things.  Also, I am reading and absorbing techniques on pranayama, 
which is easily practiced anytime anywhere, and hatha yoga.  I also plan 
on going on with more occasional zen retreats, of which I find "just 
sitting" a beautiful challenge.  Maybe, after I graduate, who know's...I 
live NOW.

 Yesterday,I got the priviledge of seeing an exibit of Rodin 
and Michelangelo at the Phila. Art museum. The show was great. Draw- 
ings of Michelangelo were beautiful. As an artist he is my favorite 
for his life drawings (nudes). To see a drawing of Sybil from the 
sistine chapel was great.  I brought one home.  
 Rodin was a genius with his expressive works of the human. 
I saw so much agony and estacy with his work.  It reminded me of the 
K. Seeing the agony when it is just too much. Human suffering. He 
made a lot of hands. One had a woman in the left hand, it was called 
the Devils hand. This reminded me of the left side and all its ego 
trips.  Then there was the right, Gods hand, this one had a man and 
a woman within it. Quite impressive for someone who was not a spirit- 
ual person.   
 His Statues of Adam and Eve were very dramatic.  Always  
the drama of human nature in his work. The men in his work "The 
Citizens of Calais", was a very human look at the suffering. One  
I loved in it was a man with his arm and head leaning to the right 
side.  He was dying.  He was going to the right side, to God.  
 This is the man who made the statue the, "The Thinker and 
the Kiss.  The Thinker was part of his creation "The Gate of Hell, 
inspired by Dante.  The Thinker sits atop the cross in the work. 
 He was quite a thinker himself to display his work with  
such emotion and sensual expression.

Once again, I am saddened that the wisdom of the east is being misused by well 
meaning and fervently searching members in the west. 
 
Lobster, egoism has nothing to do with the number of times the subjective 
pronoun is used.
 
PenofLove, you are right to question a lot of what you are receiving here. The 
value of staying is to see how others' honest struggle on the same path as yours 
can lead mostly to errors. Their courage in exploring and sharing their new 
experiences and ideas verbally is laudable - and is the only way we all learn.  
 
The wisdom to separate what is valuable for your path from that which is 
misleading is something you have to do in pursuit of this sort of knowledge. 
This forum, from what I have seen so far, might be a very worthwhile environment 
to do that. 
 
And at times, there might be some real insights into kundalini practice.

  It is good to hear he is well....he might have at least, had the 
consideration to unsub himself, when he changed addresses....rather than 
let our mailboxes get jammed with his bounced mail. 
 
  In other news, I have the new address of beloved Antaris Ra 
Melchizidek...so if anyone seeks to reach him, send me a post with his name 
in the header and I will forward it to him. I do not know if he prefers to 
keep his new address confidential or not, so I am being discreet. I am sure 
he will get back to you to give it to you himself... 
 Blessings, Angelique.

 Name: Ram Peswani 
 Age : 60 
 Brief background:Well educated with couple of engineering degrees. 
    Well read and practicle down to earth successful  
life with well established childern. 
    Atheist to beginwith ..and now searching for God  
if God is there. 
    At age fifty took the decision to wind up my  
wordly duties in next five years and take up a line of action to search  
for God or meaning to this life if any. 
    On 30th June 92 that is at the age of fiftyfive  
started vipassana meditation  under Mr Goenka with an inkling that I  
might get my path. 
    On 6th July 92 I got connected to my inner voice  
and have vigorously cotinued my type of meditation (not exactly like  
vipassana) without looking back and almost full time. 
    There were many ups and downs.There were many  
dangers on the way. But the voice has been guiding me well. 
     You can judge my present state by my following  
opinions of what I have read on Shared transfomation. 
  (I hope no one minds and neglect it if one does not like)
 
 E.Jason...I have agreed with your opinions all (yes all) the  
times but what a poetic way of expressing 
 Tom Aston... What an eastern knowledge, we could sit and talk and talk 
I have lived in Himalyan caves for months and in company of fakirs and  
sadhus as one of them in 94-95. Have met saints with sidhis who could  
enter my body , who could read my each and every word of mind without  
opening my mouth.  I had to run away after gathering my full will power  
before he took kover my body and soul.
 
 Dan Galihinger,Cecil Megregor....I hope you are guided by blessed  
spirits , though it is always better for you to be in control , and to be  
guided by the opinions held by common down to earth neighbours and  
friends who are not going thro K experience. 
 Jon Locke ...Should take the guidence from "Nirmala Devi". She is  
one of the great saint and probably french citizen.  You can read her  
literatutre on  www to understand as to what is happening .You might be  
on something but just in case... As per Nirmala Devi there are good and  
bad spirits and also good but unpracticle as per present times are  
concerned spirits.  
 I hope I have mirrored my self to you , by taking up the selected  
personalities. 
 I have changed and am still changing. 
 Most interesting service that was provided by me was in the month  
of feb.97. I sat with 103 hard core criminals (87 of them murderers) for  
2-3 hours for 10 day vipassana meditation that was held in Yerwada jail  
in Poona city in India. I offer my reguolar service to vipassana  
meditators at various camps in Poona where I live. In an enclosure  where  
all the guards were shunted out a number of outsiders provided services  
like teaching the meditation , providing special food etc. 
  
 What you hope to get?.....truely there is no self left who hopes  
to get so question started the path and like Jason said the question has  
become an answer.

yep, there's no going back...and in a mad world only the mad are 
sane..first law of Tantric practice....and , well, our sense of self is 
the problem not the solution, so even the thought of it all is a bit 
scary....what - no me ? regards Yogi Tom

I don't know what it is about music, but I admit I'm addicted. I just 
have to have my share of dancing at least once a week, preferably more. 
The last month has been a very active period in my life energywise and 
I've just had to go dancing quite often. 
 
Your experiences on the dance floor sound very similar to mine... if the 
music is good, I just loose myself in it, sort of like entering a trance 
state. And the beauty of it is that the more I dance the better it 
feels... so much so that it's getting difficult to stop. But then, of 
all the addictions one could have, this is probably the safest!
 
I used to explain all the good effects by the endorphine released by the 
body after excercise, but your message among other things has made me 
consider other explanations, too, like balancing the energies in the 
body and maybe releasing some blockages... If you have further theories 
about the subject, I'd gladly hear more about it!
