Depends. If K is causing problems, a guide might help. If She is going 
along fine, but people are just puzzled -- then the wrong guide may be 
worse than none. 
 
I had a spontaneous awakening that was fine, except for the puzzle of "What 
is going on, am I going crazy?"
 
As long as I just relaxed and let K lead, all was fine. When I got anxious 
and tense, then things went bad. It was the fear of insanity that caused 
the trouble.
 
I spent a year reading various books, /Cosmic Consciousness/, William James 
/VArieties of Religious Experience/, etc, before finding Muktananda's /Play 
of Consciousness/.
 
During that year ... K kind of led me to the right ideas. I noticed 
patterns for myself, instead of letting other people interpret/shape my 
experiences. Learned a lot from reading James' /Principles of Psychology/ 
-- at a time when my own mind was kind of wide open with K.
 
Got the most help from Leary's book about /Tibetan Book of the Dead/. Never 
really inhaled drugs, but knew how they could affect me. So I decided "It's 
not insanity, it's not religion, I'm just getting high on something." That 
saved my sanity. :-))))
 
I know what people mean about "using K". Seems a waste *not* to put it into 
art or something to share with the world. Or into some pre-existing 
spiritual path. But -- that way I wouldn't have learned so much about how 
the mind works, about different kinds of yoga etc....
 
I still think that if K is showing herself in a loving, reassuring way 
(even just sometimes) -- then SHE can be the guide through all these 
qustions. She can guide one to the right guides, or to the right books, or 
the right scraps of info on tv ... or the right pictures to see in teh 
clouds or the tealeaves, or whatever. She can tell you whether to "use" her 
energy for lifestyle improvement, or accomplishment in the world, or for a 
conventional "path to enlightenment", or for some new 
path/understanding.... Or all of these at different times....
 
It's different for everybody. ONLY K KNOWS FOR SURE. :-))))))

I'm the deep-thinking sort.  I think I always have been.  I'm 19 now.  
Early in high school, I officially quit Christianity.  I thought it made 
perfect, logical sense, but I found huge inconsistencies and stuff that 
just didn't make sense.  (Just to clarify:  The branch of Christianity was 
Protestant and Fundamentalist (as the dictionary defines "fundamentalist"). 
 I am aware that there are many different interpretations of the Bible, 
some less literal than others.)
 
My leaving Christianity made the nature of consciousness, the supernatural, 
the spiritual, and the Answer to the Question of Life, the Universe, and 
Everything a part of the things that I thought about.  I read books, I 
observed myself (not just my body, but what it was like to be alive), I 
observed other people, I lived and I took notes.  I'm a smart guy - I 
gained insights and drew conclusions.
 
I was/am of the opinion that it's possible to go through any experience and 
not suffer - that suffering was something different than an experience...  
that "things" didn't "cause" suffering, but that there was some step 
between experiencing something and suffering that could eventually be 
"turned off" or used to experience life totally without suffering.
 
I did my thing some more, read more books, thought some more, and talked to 
deep people more...  Sometimes I'd read a book that explained the path to 
enlightenment and it made sense.  Sometimes I'd just think up something or 
discover something talking to people.  When those things happened, I'd get 
in a good mood.  My body felt good, I was cheerful and relaxed and 
confident...  I was even able to get into an argument with my girlfriend 
and smile the whole time.  It wasn't repression or pain-avoidance, but 
transcendence.  I saw that "things" didn't matter.  "I" was indestructible. 
 "I" was eternal.
 
But every single time that happens, I end up back where I started!  I end 
up responding the same way to things.  I keep on being affected by things 
that don't matter, as though there is no escape from the perpetual 
suffering that is life.  I get thrown out of heaven once again!  You people 
are supposed to know!  Do you?!!  I just cried bitterly.  Dear God, why?!!  
Is there no end?!!

Jan: 
The idea of  parallel universes is more or less accepted in order to fix the 
paradox with time-travel through wormholes. According to the neti-neti 
doctrine, Being cannot be defined and yet it isn´t equal to nothing. So 
Being cannot influence nor can it be influenced. However, it can be 
experienced, contrary to spanda, which is a technical concept. The 
experience of OM at certain occasions cannot be denied, but the very fact 
that these occasions are rare and the sound is heard for only a short time, 
poses some difficulties for an explanation as "hearing the sound of the 
Absolute". If one manages to remain conscious during the process of falling 
asleep, one will observe a tremendous burst of energy, turning off, among 
others, all motor-systems and sometimes producing a sound, similar to OM, 
but at an other pitch and not as loud. As on the rare occasions, where OM is 
experienced, something is irreversibly changed physically also (but with 
much more energy involved then when falling asleep), the change alone could 
be causing the sound (eventually as a secondary effect).

Jan: 
The cognitive changes are part of the process of K., if  the speed of 
progress allows one to experience them. The two major changes are those 
where the sound OM is heard (very strong). The example of tasting honey is a 
good one, because the experience of the taste tells nothing about its 
(doubtful) value as food. Likewise, the experience of the "ultimate state" 
doesn´t reveal other qualities because the limitations of the human 
observing system. This reminds me of the fate of the universe: it seems very 
sure that it will expand forever, so there are no "cycles of Brahma" (the 
universe, expanding first, than contracting to a "big bang" and starting all 
over again). This means, that Karma will grind to a halt one day as will all 
vibrations. Only Being remains...

Dear Brent:
 
 Detachment from other people's emotions is something that has to be 
cultivated from day to day. There will always be people who will affect you 
emotionally to some extent. As your chi or kundalini rises you may at first 
feel more sensitive to people. Humanity in general is good at dumping 
emotional garbage, but it is not good in using alchemy to recycle it. In your 
case your chi may have temporarily been raised to a high level where you were 
able to detach from negative emotion. And then it went back to its 
"maintenance level". Eventually with proper cultivation your day to day 
"maintenance level" will rise. When one becomes a strong vessel for attracting 
earth and heaven energies, this detachment will become stronger, because your 
energy is not dependent upon people and life circumstance. The universe 
provides the pure energy for body and soul.
 
  Yours truly,
 
  Dave

Hi
 
Where are you located?
 
I just discovered a guru in Miami. HIs name is Swami Jyotir Mayananda, 
he has a small ashram where he lectures on the scriptures almost every 
night and has many books that they are manufactured in his place. 
He is a holy man. He gives initiations to his devotees. 
He has a web site I think, its called Yoga Research Foundation. 
Love and light,

Dear Jan 
I read your post inquiring about a guru. I sent you the information 
about the Swamiji that lives in Miami, but I will tell you this. I have 
been to the ashram of Gurumayi, she is a true guru, I was awakened by 
Muktananda before that, but a guru is one who causes you to discover 
your own divinity. It does not matter who.. 
That is all.

Thank you for your reply.  I have some questions for you.
 
1)  It might be helpful to hear about the experiences of those who have 
gone before me.  What have you experienced concerning the effect chi has on 
detachment?
 
2)  What practices do you recommend for cultivating my chi?

Very, very good point there. :) I don't think that K-awakening was ever 
considered to be the goal - actually, I think of Milarepa, I think he was 
K-awakened (in the sense accepted on this list) when he _began_ meditating 
in his cave. Yes, there is a significant increase of K awakenings, it all 
comes more easily etc, but I would really love someone to show me somebody 
who could match Milarepa's depth of wisdom and enlightenment, among all 
those people talking about taking new steps in human evolution. IMHO 
Milarepa, or Shankaracarya, Narada, Vyasa, and many like them, took all the 
steps in human evolution there are. The question is, are we able even to 
follow their footsteps?

Hi, Mary!
 
That's the best thing I have heard about happiness yet.  It implies that 
happiness is our natural state, and I believe this to be  true.
 
As for the original question, this is the thought that keeps coming back to 
me:  If I am happy because I love *---* (fill in your favorite name for the 
deity), this is a bad thing??!

Exactly what is happening with me.  Excess poundage is just disappearing. 
I'm eating a highly "unspiritual" diet my new age standards--it includes 
lots of proteins, including animal protein, but also lots and lots of 
veggies, and ample amounts of fruit.  Hardly any grain, pasta, etc.  I've 
never felt better.  In fact, a lot of the time I feel almost "high" since 
giving up on being a vegetarian.  I was definitely led to eat this way, and 
I consider it a gift from the Divine.
 
And yes, I sometimes dip my strawberries in chocolate...  :)

How true!!! I can feel her when she's happy (if that makes sense). When 
we're at one I walk around feeling like my head is on fire. A huge 
Heatmeister flame rising about two feet above my physical head roars 
without consuming. That's when I am truly Signalfire -- the fire that

Harsha: Quite right.  The Shakti awakening is a beginning.  Purity of mind is 
essential for the Kundalini to rise up fully and function at higher centers. 
The spiritual benefits of a Kundalini awakening are not always obvious 
immediately, particularly if the awakening is abnormal or premature. 
Pranayama is considered an important practice in many Shakti traditions for 
awakening, purifying and raising the Shakti to higher levels.  Milarepa, by 
the way, was a Pranayama adept. For cautions regarding the practice of

Hi everybody.  Trying to catch up--still jetlagging, but was struck by 
Trystan's remark.  Have other's felt this--What Stages do we go through?  I 
sense this is true, but memory is so tricky I'm not sure if I'm in the same 
place I began or not!
 
Love, Hillary

>Question 2
 
>What does OM-MANI-PADME-HUM - Chenreezis mantra, mean ? Can someone 
translate it into English ?
 
OM - is the state of godhood to which all men aspire
 
MA - symbolizes those who are more than men, yet less than gods
 
NI - symbolizes those who have become Adepts (high upon the path of  
     attainment)
 
PAD - refers to those who are Disciples
 
ME - symbolizes still another aspect of Man. Not Man as a merely some 
    insignificant being, but MAN who Aspires
 
HUM - is associated with the life energies used by Man in his ascent from 
      the state of Aspiring Man through Discipleship, Adeptship and 
      Mastership to Godhood.
 
Thus individual growth from the very lowest to the highest.
