Dear Leslee,

K awakening often is scary because most of the "symptoms" are somewhat
bizarre! Differences in breathing and making sounds are fairly common.

Many, if not most of the people on this list have awakened spontaneously. No
guru is necessary IMO. As Sharon said, this list is sort of a collective
guru, but there are many voices here, and we have to pick and choose who we
want to listen to!

Exactly! :))

I think you are being unnecessarily alarmist, Sean. Leslee has obviously
been doing HY correctly since it has resulted in her becoming K active. :))
She must be doing something right! :)) I learned HY via TV's Lilias Yoga
and You.! I never took any lessons. I continue to practice 3x a day for 20
min. at a time. I find it hard to accept that HY can damage the body. It
stretches and limbers allowing for easy flow of K energy.

Most K-active people who end up being admitted to mental hospitals seem to
know they are different from those who are truly insane. Therefore their
stays in mental hospitals are short and self limiting. Fear is what makes
for trouble, and Sean, you are, alas, feeding into this fear.

Gurus can be both helpful *and* harmful (as Jerry can attest to) Leslee
seems to be having a classic, wonderful K awakening, apart from a very
natural fear and concern.

Love, Hillary
