On 2002/05/27  19:58, lillianferracone posted thus to the K-list: Hi,  Kundalini Yoga, using meditation as a tool, provides techniques for 
attaining insight and finding one's identity (the real person, authentic 
self). It is used to rid oneself of psychological or physical problems and 
to bring about a change in behavior and feelings. The goals of meditation 
are self-actualization(development of one's creative abilities) 
inner-directed (intuitive sense) integration of the personality, 
tranquility, wisdom, enjoyment, efficiency, in charge of one's life. 
Meditation may also bring one closer to a deity and this brings about a 
special kind of awareness. This requires one to embrace a stenuous 
discipline and it requires a highly skilled teacher. This is called the path 
of inner development. For those of us who have analytical minds we need to 
start with insight therapy to give us an understanding of the psychodynamics 
of our own personalities. This helps us to become more aware of the 
unconscious propensities that can give rise to serious problems; 
emotionally, physically and environmentally(relationship level). This 
self-analysis enables us to to develop our individual creative potentials 
and our reasoning and critical thinking capacities. The methods( mediatation 
and self-analysis) are different but the goals are essentially the same.  We 
need more people actively working on themselves to achieve these goals. 
Society in general would be benefitted.  I hope this gives you some 
understanding.   Lillian
