Hi, everyone,
I tried posting earlier but it didn't work, so here goes again. I'm
new to the list, just joined last week. I've been doing spiritual
practice for many years, but just recently started teaching. About
the same time, I developed this huge lower back pain. I couldn't tell
what it was and it moved sides.
At first I tried physical means, heat, ibuprofen, but it didn't help.
For a few days I could barely walk. Then I thought maybe I was
picking up a student, but it was clear it was mine. We were doing
chakra work in class so I started doing some lower chakra work and it
really helped, but would come back although not as painful. I began
to suspect it was kundalini awakening. I kept doing chakra work, and
it began to really take off with "new" symptoms, heat, buzzing,
shaking, light, etc. I realized I had no clue what to expect and was
feeling a little lost and alone, though thrilled.
One day last week I went to buy this Buddha statue I had seen in a
shop window. Afterwards, I decided to pop into this little occult
bookstore. As soon as I walked in my crown chakra was sparking like
mad. I checked my bag and went back to the front of the store. Right
there on the corner of the table was Gopi Krishna's Kundalini. I
picked it up and could not, literally, could not put it down. I
tried. My arm wouldn't move. I even tried setting it down while
looking at other books and I couldn't even do that.
Of course, I bought it. (Oddly, (?) the only reason I could afford it
was because the hardware store ran out of the paint I wanted that
day). As I left, I felt totally buzzing and half out of my body. I
passed a gorgeous friendly dog who let me pet her and a plant store,
where I went in and breathed deep and touched leaves. This really
helped to ground me. (It wasn't intentional, but it worked!)
I read the book in one day. It helped to explain some things and made
me feel less alone. But I wanted to find some living people
experiencing or having experienced this amazing thing.
Now, the pain is mostly gone, but I have other symptoms which
intensify if I'm involved in anything related to spirit and fade if
I'm not. Right not I'm having tingly coldness and waves. My eyes are
really sensitive. If I'm still for a while, it comes back in strong
waves, sometimes I feel I could pass out. It's wonderful and scary.
I'm not sure if this is appropriate to ask, but I'm going to. I live
in the Bay Area and am interested in talking to people in person as
well as online. I'm not looking for a teacher, but for a supportive
friendly sort of thing. Talk over tea sort of thing.
Peace and light,
Paula
