Subject: [K-list] Sri Yantra, Kundalini and Wim's website (finally)

Hi everyone,
Antoine Carre quoted S. Shankaranarayanan (referring to the Sri Yantra):
>>>>"In the human body, the place of the Bindu is at the top of the
spinal column in the thousand petalled lotus centre in the head. The
trikona is at the bottom of the spinal column, in the Muladhara, the
base centre. The Divine Mother is the coiled energy Kundalini who
traverses up and down the path between the two centres in her courses of
evolution and involution. As the static principle predominates in the
Para Bindu, it is known as the Linga, the symbol of the male principle,
while trikona is the yoni the index of the female principle. The whole
creation is the outcome of the union of the Linga and the Yoni, The
Bindu and the Trikona. It is the bliss of this union that permeates
through the whole creation as its sap and sustenance." .<<<<
Wim's comment:
This is quite a good description of the Kundalini process.
Of course S.S. uses a cultural language that could use some contemporary
translation.
I just want to add that:
Yoni+Linga =Kunda+Linga=Kundalini,
Yoga=joining=religio=binding=relinking=integration.
(Recovering and restoring the missing link)
Come to think of it, this could use some contemporary translation as
well. :-)
S.S.'s treatment of the Sri Yantra is very flatlandish though, I want to
keep pointing at the multi dimensionality of reality (reality is the
environment of real things in real time).
We do not live on a flat plane. We are not 2D 'flatlanders' nor
'wormlings' which are close to 1D with wiggles.
In his description S. S. describes the Sri Yantra quite in terms of a
flat object and even in that mixes two dimensions or axes:
.superior / inferior (heaven / earth)
.sinister / dexter (female / male)
He does not cover the third axis very well
.posterior / anterior (past / future)
Just his use of the words involution and evolution may point to it.
(Ah translations!)
In one of my posts I mentioned the three axes coming together in and
emanating from their core (heart), source as well as target (teleios),
alpha as
well as omega (Jesus), the beginning and also the end (Krishna).

This is pictorially examplified in the triangle as well as swastika
symbols.
A Swastika: a flatlander's approximation of three axes in a square
arrangement so as to symbolize a cube. (Once I had a child in my class
who was too young to even to know about that symbol. When she tried to
draw a picture of a cube it came out looking a swastika. (I believe that
Hildegard von Bingen made similar attempts.)
A Triangle: a flatlander's flat approximation of three dimensions except
that the original inventor of the 3 dimensions (in my Akashic memory it
is Vishnu's father) when he drew them in the sand, he made them look as
though they came together.

When I, in my second to last near death experience - on my way to
'NowHere land' - travelled the grid, that aspect of multidimensional
space was very clear. It was as though I made quantum jumps through
triangular meshes enmeshed within and without eachother.
An oval or ellips is nothing else than a flat representation of a
section of a continuous spring-like spiral path.
The earth's path around the sun is not elliptical it is circular WHILE
at the same time progressive. In a flatlander's world and mind that
spiralling looks and computes as an ellips. In this case the time
dimension is missing as well.
Of course even the 3 Ds of horizontal, vertical and perpendicular
directions are totally conceptual. Even the idea of "Being Here Now" is.
(Hey, whisper, whisper, do not say this too loud to when there are guru
types around. Be Here Now is really BS as well. shhhhhiii....
usshhh...)
As long as we attempt not to be 'one pointers', 'flatliners',
'flatlander' or 'square heads' and employ linear thinking we are not
doing too bad.
Is this important for Kundalites and ppl. interested in Sri Yantra?
(Yantrastics:-)
Yes, flatlander concepts and their linearity is very much part of their
inability to deal with reality unconditionally. Concepts influence
perception, while it ought to be the other way around...
Kundalini has everything to do with the dynamics of energy (spiritual
fluid- dynamics), if we don't have the dimensionalities somewhat right
or at least if we don't break out of the square box, (hehehe) how can we
deal with energy except by interfering with it through our contorting
viewing, where conceiving has replace perceiving, conceit has replaced
perception?
BTW, my website is just up and running.

If you have a fast connection and some additional patience, you may want
to check my website slide shows, especially the AuraStar slide show. It
covers specifically the up and down flowing energies as mentioned in the
quote above. Of course there is no talk with the show and I haven't put
speaker notes in, so you have to do a lot of figuring out by yourself.
As I am not totally done yet you may have to wade through the page links
on the left a bit.
I set the site up for MS Explorer but Netscape seems to work pretty well
also.
Love,
Wim
