For me the whole exercise in detachment.... is in the detachment from 
everything outside of us.....we in turn attach or join to our true selves 
within. It's just a process of self learning. It's an exercise done with 
love for yourself and others.  
By becoming more clear about who you genuinely are, you can't but help 
feeling better about yourself and being a better friend, mate etc. 
 
I find that I do this in steps, shedding layers that have built up over 
the years.... continuing until I travel down into my own truths, as far as 
I might dare. The changes brought on in myself continue into the world 
that I live 
in and I find myself in new situations and friendships... that have sprung 
from the new changes in myself. I learn with these new people and 
experiences until a staleness overcomes me or maybe a feeling that my 
relationships are not any longer the healthiest things to be in anymore  
and again 
I journey within to see what's there now... and the process begins again.
 
But all done in love and respect... for myself and others.
 
Unlike the post from the alt.suicide group.... the letting go and the 
changes only bring in new revelations that translate into new interests 
and a fresh look at things. I get excited about the new ideas and have 
many things to do and experience in my new thoughts. It never ends... 
never winds down to a point where I'm at my end.... only new beginnings.
 
*shrug*
 
...just a few thoughts on a lazy Sunday afternoon:)

Hi Phil--
 
Thanks for responding.  Most of what you've written I'm familiar with, 
though it's refreshing to hear your systhesis.  I do have a few more 
questions...

Why do you call the integration of the senses in the causal energy "the 
horizontal"?

Do these voids correspond to the three worlds?  How can there be "three" 
"voids"?
 
Further thanks,

well, manipura is the navel chakra and anahata is the heart chakra. 
 
The Sanskrit terms tend to do a much better job at describing the 
anatomy of the subtle body than English terms. 
 
it's very hard to understand kundalini experiences without some 
knowledge of yogic terminology and concepts. i try not to use too 
much....they can be found in many books easily available in the West....
 
if/once the kundalini climbs from the base of the spine to above the 
heart, then without some esoteric understanding one could get very 
confused very quickly.....
 
there are mystical and pagan traditions in the West that offer forms of 
understanding that can help as well as yogic systems....
 
and i hope my posts are slightly clearer than Phil's....but i'll try and 
do better in future...sorry

>Is this ego talking?  
 
hope not again, but anyone who knows shakti knows it can be hard to 
explain things to others....
 
i agree that in the ideal world of faith or Zen awareness, shakti would 
not even be necessary and no explanations or descriptions of inner 
experience would be necessary...indeed, if there is such a thing as 
inner experience at all which can be talked about.....
 
but for many there is a transitional process which can be hard to 
comprehend and often requires recognition and nurturing by others if we 
are to successfully see it through.
 
kundalini awakening can bring all kinds of traumas and catharsis in the 
short run, at least, and holding it in, or adopting a Zenlike silence is 
not always an option.....and can be disastrous....in that one fails to 
integrate the  psychophysical manifestations of this force with one's 
being.....which often manifests as a purifying energy from the depths of 
the subconscious.....which is no respecter of egos or conditioning, be 
they ordinary or Zenlike or both....if the wave breaks on top of the 
surfer it is best simply to ride it in whatever way seems 
appropriate....the wave tends to decide the best course of action, even 
if it is the surfer that wipes out when he or she gets it wrong and 
fails to understand the forces of Nature and the Divine....
 
there is also the point that one might actually want to share one's 
experience with others for mutual education and spiritual benefit....so 
communication can be the most altruistic act imaginable....
 
except for the Zen Master's enigmatic silence...
 
but yogis have so much more fun on the net, because we love to 
talk........

Once again I recommend the "tell it what you want" method.  Use reverence 
and be very clear. It probably will respond nicely after a bit of time. That 
has been my experience in any case.

 I think that what you think matters just as much - if not more...  
 
Try asking it to get more gentle with you.  It probably will respond nicely 
after a bit of time.  That has been my experience in any case.

I've been experiencing just this sort of thing for quite a while, Tom. And I've 
come to believe it's no big deal. On my road I've had cyclic times of being very 
much out in the world and times of being very inner and secluded (as in an extended 
retreat). For the past couple of years, I've been going thru a time of 
transformation which has required me to hunker down and spend a lot of alone time. 
I had the savings to do this, and I believe my inner guidance provided me with that 
$ for just this purpose. Now, I'm back on the job market and have moved into a new 
phase. While that inner phase was at times very scary and unpleasant, it was where 
I needed to be at the time. And yes, I too have _temporarily_ pulled back from my 
family (who don't live nearby anyway). They've been anxious about this and I've 
done what I can to reassure them. It's all cyclic and I can see that soon I'll be 
seeing more of them, with more to offer due to what I've learned during this quiet 
phase. You're trusing your inner voice! and I heartily encourage that!

Nancy, thx for sharing your story in this area. As you'll see from what I wrote 
above, I'm in much the same boat. I'll bet there are many on this list who are as 
well. I believe that, like the steering of a car, live is a series of adjustments, 
back and forth, ebb and flow. And I feel led by intuition to know which turn to 
take next. I guess I don't believe my life can be 'thought' but certainly can be 
'intuited'.
 
Best to everybody...

I'd like to know of the book you used, I probably already have it, but I'm

This is what i love about the kundalini list....just one great "hug 
fest".........i found a note in my writings after sending this question, 
about adapting to "not knowing what one is going to do or say until one 
does or says it and the difficulty of simply letting things work out in 
their own time and own way".....becomes harder and harder to fix 
anything, let alone relationships....and becomes very hard to divine 
consciously where things are going sometimes as causal chains can be 
impossible to perceive let alone influence..and attempts to influence 
things can often backfire or prove useless.....the spirit moves in 
mysterious ways....anyone fancy a post on shakti and synchronicity ? now 
on that one i could keep posting till the cows come home.....but will 
refrain from doing so for time being since would require certain amount 
of background info to appreciate the nature of coincidences.....or until 
"the time is right..."
 
thanks for two sympatico responses, Yogi Tom xxxx

Evening....
 
(Love that word -- so balanced).  Anyway, I would like to get some 
various thoughts from you on the ego or the death of the ego, what is 
ego....
 
I am getting *glimpses* of, that there is no ego, other than the guilt & 
fear thoughts we may have.  And once the guilt & fear are let go, walla!  
no ego.  
 
I am open to seeing it differently if this is not the case....

 This is an interesting subject ! Funny how some of us seem to be in the 
same place in our journey. I find that I have been feeling a pull for 
the last year to be alone. I mean this is really strange for me. I used 
ot be a workaholic. I worked and had so many volunteer things going I 
was always busy. Then I was laid off about 3 years ago. It was the best 
thing that could have ever happened to me.
 
I remember sitting in the middle of my living room, after a week of 
being unemployed, feeling crazy because it was quiet and I didn't have 
anything to do. Eventually I did quit the mass volunteer activities and 
found another job with with a flexible schedule. Things began to change 
in my life. I thought I knew me but boy am I finding out who I am(?) 
<smile>
 
I have been in this mode to be "completely alone".  I have gotten rid of 
a lot of old stuff that I was keeping in boxes. ( what an amazing 
feeling to get rid of all that so called important stuff) I am reading 
books like The Pathwork of Self-Transformation (Eva Pierrakos), Seat of 
the Soul (Gary Zukav), A Chakra & Kundalini Workbook (Dr. john Mumford) 
Psychic Healing w/Spirit guides & Angels (Diane Stein), Wake Up Calls 
(Eric Allenbugh Phd.)
 
I am realizing the duality in me. Go figure! The personal power I have 
and a lot of others things. Only problem is I am struggling with the 
fact that I am the mother of 16 son, 10 year old daughter. I am a 
community leader and a lot of people seek my help. I am a wife. Right 
now at this point in my life I would love to go off and sit on the top 
of a mountain and discover "the rest of whatever it is I need to find 
out". I just want to go into myself. If only I could spin a cocoon 
around myself. I have just become very selfish in the fact that I feel 
the need to just get rid of things and go away and be alone. I have no 
idea even why I feel this way.
 
I have let go of people, things and some attitudes about life I used to 
have. I guess I just need to find some balance. Just a little about me. 
Any comments would be appreciated.

Whether one is emersed in external relationships or not 
is not the real issue of detachment.
 
I agree there can be a natural cycle of going deep within 
followed by expressing energy outward.
 
Detachment is an issue of dependence.
 
To be amongst form and limit while knowing this can never 
satisfy an infinite hungar is to be detached.
 
Follow your intuition and be where you need to be.
 
Just don't rely on time-bound things to quench the thirst 
of the soul.
 
That is the virtue of detachment.
 
Peace.

Pamela,
 
 I was lucky enough to have had the opportunity to be alone 
when my time come. I was out of work for two and a half years.  I live 
with my parents so I had no dependants and morgage to pay. I went in 
and found what I really wanted.  Got to do things I have always wanted 
It was an opportune time. After getting over too many rejections I  
felt to go in.  It was the best experience I ever had. I recommend it 
highly.  I could be alone within.  It actually worked as I was taking 
care of two ill parents. They depended on me totally. But I felt alone 
and free at the same time.  And like the wealthiest person in the  
world for my inner riches.  I was walking around in rags.  Felt like 
I was holeless but I was rich.   
 Now I still wish I was back there.  I have been pushed back to 
being the social butterfly.  The K changed me and I would like to be 
alone more often.  I too have a flexable scedule at work.  But pushing 
hogies for a paycheck is sometimes to physical for me.  I wish I did 
not have to work.   
 I never had a situation in my life that was so life changing 
and gave me so much insight into being human and spiritual. I loved  
the compassion and joy of being free to enjoy life.  I hope you get 
to experience this also.  
 
     Anita

 You dont have to be an expert to observe the amount of EGO Tripping 
that goes on... displays of "knowledge" sometimes with the intent of 
impresing not teaching, we can perceive that. Lets go back to Love, 
(shall we?) so basic and essential... 
Love always, 
Lissette
