Subject: [K-list] Kundalini Shakti and Ahimsa
From: Harsha

On 2001/09/16 07:45, Harsha posted thus to the K-list:

Kundalini practices and rituals and their mystical visionary manifestations
are described in one form or another in almost every religion or spiritual
tradition.

Sages and scriptures declare, however, that although many superconscious
experiences and manifestations of siddhis are possible through Kundalini
Yoga, Self reveals itself only in a calm and clear mind.

In Patanjali's Yoga sutras, Ahimsa (the attitude of nonviolence and amity
towards living beings) is mentioned as the first yama (rule or restraint)
for a Yogi. The ancient sages say that the practice of Ahimsa brings peace.

A peaceful mind that has been refined through self-awareness and devotion
has the capacity to surrender to the Lord of Life, Lord of the Heart. For
such a devotee, the Goddess does not waste time showing the scenery but
takes the devotee directly to the Source, the Heart, and reveals that the
Goddess, Devotee, the Lord are all rooted in the Heart, the Self. All
scenery and beautiful paths merge in the Self that is It Self the nature of
Self-Existent Beauty.

Here is a quote from "Day by Day with Bhagavan" where Sri Ramana quotes a
poet saint:

Not knowing who I was,
I used to speak of "I" and "mine"
But I am You and mine is You,
Lord whom all the gods adore. (Nammalwar)

Love to all
Harsha
