the wholistic approach is in error.  Sorry, but it is true.  It doesn't matter 
if you call it ki, chi, innate force, conciousness, or kundalini.   
It's root is in self-worship and fire (sun)-worship. 
The ki is the system of electricity (hence "energy") which flows through the 
body.  It would be comparable to the blood flow (although it runs on a 
different map).  The body has arteries which take fresh oxygenated blood from 
the heart (command post of the flesh) to the body.  The veins carry it back 
for rejuvination.  Similarly, the nerves, dendrites, dermatones, etc. run the 
electricity from the brain (command post of the soul) throughout and back. 
The particular highways will effect other body parts down the road.  For 
instance, a man who is struck on the inside of the leg several times in the 
right place will end up with liver failure.  This is why the Free Masons and 
Mormons and Pagans have certain pressure points to tough in there greetings. 
They are for sexual stimulation. 
The wholism leads to misdx. in many cases, and is a straw man.   
The thought of kundalini leading to genius is sad.  First of all, beware of 
anything that glorifies a snake!  The "conciousness runs straight up the spine 
to the brain (command post of the soul) to come out in your third eye.  STOP 
for a second and think of the methods used to reach this state.  Emptying your 
mind.  If you empty it, someone else will enter.  The people who are experts 
in this field worship thousands of gods, if not more.  They practice a mantra. 
The mantra is designed to summon the god being called.  You see, you empty 
your soul, and call for another spirit to enter into it.  The Bible describes 
these gods as unclean spirits, deceivers, and devils.  They may be extemelly 
wise, but they are also malignant.  They are liars.  The promises they give 
are a pretty package that's empty inside.  The only person who delivers on 
promises is Jesus Christ.  Anyone who doesn't say that Jesus Christ is come in 
the flesh is a liar and trying to deceive you.  Be for warned.
 
There is no "better business" organization out there to keep these spiritists 
in line and give a critical analysis. If they are lying to you (and friend 
they are) you could be is serious danger.  I love you and DON'T want you to be 
fooled or hurt.  This message is a plee to your love for truth, not 
convenience.   
I realize you have good intensions and only want to helf others and 
yourselves, but the end does not justify the means (no matter what Catholic 
Jesuit says so).  It is like white witchcraft.  Those who practice it claim to 
mean well (and many do).  But, even Anton Levey himself said that "anyone who 
thinks there is a difference between white and black magic is deceived, they 
both have the same source of power" (a rare bit of truth from a professional 
liar).  The Bible doesn't say that white witchcraft is ok, but, black is an 
abomination.  Both are condemned.  One is violent and one is hypocritical. 
I'm not saying that kundalini is witchcraft stuff, but I am saying that it is 
anti-biblical.  If you love the truth, read the book of John and then Romans 
in a King James Bible (the others have been intentionally tampered with). 
Then you will have heard both sides and will be able to make an objective 
choice of what to believe and what to practice.

<<Since the experience I've started a daily stretching/yoga 
practice that I had been meaning to do but never got around 
to.  The next time I meditated it didn't happen, but the 
last two times I meditated at home I've had the same 
experience and seizures towards the end of the meditation 
session.  I've stopped meditating at the Zendo because 
seizures are not a part of Zen meditation.  I've also cut 
down my meditation a lot because I was a little worried 
about this.>>
 
deb writes: Hi Dan! I do zazen too, altho not as much since i switched 
into the Vajrayana. Have you heard of 'makyo'? Zen term for strange 
visions, body motions, other side effects of meditation. 
 
i started having lots of visions & stuff doing zazen, and my teacher, zen 
master dae gak told me mainly to keep centered in my hara when it would 
flare. Hara is in zen terms the center of your energy. He told me to drop 
my consciousness into the hara and ride it out like the center of the 
hurricane. 
 
The visions, bliss etc are side effects of meditation. They come & go. I 
went for a period where it seemed like i was always either in extreme 
bliss (fired from low, later the calmer kind fired from higher up the 
system), or having visions of this or that.  
. My body would be jarred into stillness from teh force of it. 
Once the zendo monitor clacked the chugpi and i was stuck in this 'icant 
move, but i'm way aware of everything' stage. 
 
my guess is its probably easier to deal with it if you try to keep up with 
your method. Is there a resident zen master? chances are if you describe 
what is going on, they can help you. If you can discuss it in Dokusan, 
one-on-one it can really help. 
 
<<    Should I continue meditating at a Zen center where the 
teachings are not concerned with this type 
      of energy movement?>>
 
My zen master seems to be knowlegable enough to help... i would check with 
the zen center's guiding teacher if you can. What is often not talked 
about all the time is known about and if its affecting your practise, its 
worth a chat. Altho the Yoga teachers may help too. I cant imagine someone 
having a problem with Buddhism....altho another option would be a Lama, 
the Tibetans seem rather knowlegable about it too. 
 
my 2 cents!

I certainly don't want to be one of the liars and try to deceive you or

 Do I detect a "personal" interpretation here? Or maybe the demons in my 
head 
are indeed deceiving me. I guess that what you are trying to "share" with us 
is that K is an isolated force that leads to "possession" by evil forces. I 
cannot refrain from saying "Holy Dark Ages!"
 
I appreciate anybody's views on life, but please stick with your own tribe 
if you are going to go around and use your interpretation of the Bible as an 
attempt to undermine our freedom to discuss openly any views we want to.
 
Did not Jesus also say: "Judge not lest thee be judged?" and "the kingdom of 
God is within?"
 
How can we find God without trusting the life-force He granted us in the 
first place?
 
Freedom of expression is the wonderful part of this newsgroup, whether we 
agree with each other or not. Most of us in this newsgroup probably have 
read the Bible, yet that is not where it stops. There are many other books 
that help point the way to soul growth.
 
If you don't agree with this group, I would recommend that you go elsewhere.
 
YOU HAVE THAT FREEDOM!

no friend, our "ki" is not demons.  Worship of ourselves is wrong though. 
The 
Dark Ages were dark, cause the Romans took the Bible (our light from us). 
I'm not trying to anger you.  But the methods of "self-enlightenment" from 
the 
east, are actually self-destructive.  Use your energy for God.  Stop quoting 
convenient scripture out of context, and don't give excuses for not wanting 
to 
investigate the Bible yourself- John and Romans.  I judge all things by the 
Bible.  Not with hipocracy.  I will fully admit to being wrong when I step 
out 
of line with the Bible (as I'm known to do from time to time :-( 
Sorry, if I offended you, don't mean to cause trouble, just a plea to read 
for 
yourself, and make an informed descision.

quite the contrary.
 
I just sent it to the group for comment, because I truly grow weary with

The perspective of a concerned Atheist."You are right in your own way , dear 
one.The existing religious beliefs about God or Avatars/Christ etc and how they 
revealed themselves through prophets and messiahs and hpow he inspred the 
scriptures are nothing but fantasies of deluded minds.The various religious 
promoses about going to heaven after death, about resurrection and the coming of 
the aramagedon or the paradise on earth are all but fdalse promises, that can 
never be fulfilled. 
But all the existing religious teachings are wrong because they all based on a 
misconception of the so the Divine Order. Truth is, that There is no Divine Order.
 
The Universe operates on principles of contaioned chaos and God does not exist at 
all. 
People are misunderstanding the Infinte Plane with its transcendental potentials 
for a personal god. In reality, they are worshipping a very unreliable 
transcendental force, allegorically speaking. 
God is sum total of everything and he is the loving heavenly father , because he 
is the ultimate source of all good and at the same time, he is also the murderer 
and criminal because he is the ultimate source of all evil. He is definitely 
mentally deranged and can never be trusted. His behavior strongly indicates it. 
This means God can only be treated as a force and not the conscious intelligent 
being." Even the natural laws can change and new ones can evolve..

Around the turn of the century a Christian Minister by the name of R.J. 
Campbell was writing and preaching this kind of stuff....listen...
 
"The true being is consciousness; the universe visible and invisible is 
consciousness. The higher self of the individual man enfolds more of the 
consciousness of God than the lower, but lower and higher are the same 
beng. This may be a difficult thought to grasp, but the time is rapidly 
approaching when it will be more generally accepted than it is now."
 
I am including a dozen or so quotes from R.J. Campbell on my webpage at 
http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/umbada. They'll be up by Sunday night. 
 
Thank you.

I read a book on the Kung! called "Nisa" which dealt primarily with family 
relationships. The thing I enjoyed the most about it was its depiction of a 
culture which had near equality between the sexes. (Sadly, this is changing 
as the Kung! have begun being confined to "reservations" and their 
lifestyle is changing dramatically from a proud and self-sufficient people 
into a sad, government-dependant remnant.)
 
Nothing resembling kundalini was mentioned, as far as I could remember, but 
I am delighted to hear that this other observer of the Kung! culture found 
evidence of it. Maybe it will help preserve some of them.

It certainly seemed to activate that part of *my* brain. Paradoxically (of 
course), sometimes the snake brain is "smarter" than the ape brain.

Fascinating. I have never heard the two techniques compared before. You 
mean when I learned to breathe differently instead of following my instinct 
to push during childbirth, it is the same level of difficulty as it is for 
a man not to be a premature ejaculator? Whoa! There are some men who are 
even more selfish and lazy than I had already given them credit for. 
Present company totally excluded, of course :)

HELP!!! 
 I need help! 
An inward battle of good & evil has me very very shakey; I cannot 
concentrate on my painting, there is no one to hear the music if I 
played it, & I am very very afraid! 
People have always banded together in tribes & men & women learn to 
cooperate for just this reason! Nobody wants to feel this way! They 
would do almost anything to avoid it! 
I'm not in a city. I put myself & lil girl on this dumb remote island 
all by myself. 
I could not find a more succinct way to torture myself if I had tried! 
Is it true, what Barbra Streisand sang, 'People Who Need People'? 
I am entirely surrounded by displaced pulp mill workers & their very 
young wives, here! 
cartoons are blaring; what do i do? 
just wait for time & relief? 
i feel totally helplessly at the mercy of 'unknown forces'. 
i was up to yoga & stretch at 6 AM spontaneously this morning. Shouldn't 
I be okay now? I did my rote meditation...why am I still freaking out?

Emergency noise relief I use is: 
1. small bit of cotton deep in the ear 
2. handlotion (applied with eyedropper or baby-medicine syringe) to fill 
the ear 
3. more cotton in outer part of ear to keep the lotion from running out
 
If I really fill it up, I can't hear anything at all. Can get quite deaf by 
using a mixture of wax and oil. The small bit of cotton in first is so I 
can get it out when I need to hear again. Without that, the lotion or wax 
sticks to the eardrum and makes me deaf for longer than needed.
 
When I need to partially hear, I fill it partially and hum a mantra to make 
a noise that shuts the outside noises out, or at least gives me a good 
rhythm to lean on.
 
Old Muktananda tapes are good too. Or any classical: Beethoven, Brahams. 
Resphigi is good for shopping.
 
>just wait for time & relief?
 
My intuition says suggest a hot bath. Lean back and put your ears under and 
you can't hear, I think.
 
More later, 
Blessings, 
Mary

Gloria: 
The thing is that it isn't realistic for people not to go through these 
phases of the journey and because of this one has to have tolerance for 
this stage. Who knows it may not have been that long ago when some of us 
were there.
