Scared, and I need advice 
I am practicing hatha yoga and kundalini yoga, for several years now (without 
teacher), each time I start to feel the circles of energy rising I get scared 
and immediately stop it by getting my focus into something else. Usually that 
happens when I do a chackra meditation. The last time was two and a half 
years 
ago.  I stopped doing the meditation. Now I started doing it again and this 
is 
what happened: 
·	I felt a link between the base of the spine and the 3rd eye point. 
·	Circles of energy covering the whole area and going higher and faster 
·	My body started sweating  
·	It was easier to let it flow up, but I didn't out of fears. 
·	I had an old pain in my chest rib cage. I always feel it when I stretch in 
any hatha yoga posture around that area. So when I started to feel slight 
pain 
in this area I got scared it would get worse as I expected expansion in it. 
So 
I tried to relax the area.   
I tried at that point to let the energy go down to the base of my spine to 
allow it to go to one chackra at a time moving in the sequence (first to 
second, then first to 3rd, then first to 4th..etc). So it doesn't rush up 
very 
strong. In a second I felt that I'll be totally out of control so I got 
scared 
more and I didn't know what to do whether I trust it and just leave it to go, 
or control it. Also I want to enjoy this energy but I read a lot about how 
dangerous it could be mentally and physically. 
I seem so alone in this type of practices in my country so I'll appreciate a 
response to my email, also I am wondering whether this is a kundalini rise or 
not. 
Thanks  
 
Hi  
My name is MOHAMED, I am Egyptian 
I am amazed of that amount of mails responding to my email calling for help. I 
needed it, and I found it very helpful, all of it.
 
My fears from k coming from reading other people's experiences and warnings 
about how dangerous k is, that is mainly where my fears coming from, plus I 
was afraid of the pain too. 
 
Some people suggested to stop my practices until I found help, I never will 
find help as long as I live in my country, teaching about k needs an open 
minded society not rigid. That is why we don't have this type of teachings 
around, actually there are people who tried before and had problems.
 
I decided to seek help from my higher power and the k list, knowing that k 
energy is a loving, peaceful and positive energy. That exactly what it feels 
like.
 
*About blockages, I had a meditation laying on my back after my hatha practice 
couple days before where the sun representing god's light and I saw this light 
pointing to the hip area then goes up staying in each area a little time 
freeing it, then it stays in the low part of my rib cage where there is a 
blockage then the light stays there a little more then I felt the cool energy 
freeing the whole area until the upper chest. 
It happened yesterday again.
 
*I am circulating the chi every day in the microcosmic orbit, from the back of 
the spine to the top of the head and down to the navel. I work also with the 
yin energy. I have a book called (Taoist secrets of love cultivating male 
sexual energy); I just started practicing the techniques described in the book 
such as semen retention.
 
·	Still I have a lot of energy in my body, and a senesce of  existence, 
identifying (excuse my English) the chakra places, pulsations. Sometimes a 
cool energy coming out of my root chakra to all my body. 
·	I am wondering it there are some safety points I should know by now to 
prevent me from getting hurt.         
Thank you very much for your sharing, it feels good when I have people know 
what I am talking about. 
Waiting to here from you
