Thanks a lot for those references, Jack. I won't be able to stop
myself from having a look into them. :)
List: The mentioning of the importance of firsthand experience
(first!) triggers a thought that has been on my inner
thought-top-ten recently: I am torn between a.) wanting to know
more about kundalini - since I can't deny it's intriguing aspect,
the lovely source of inspiration that it simply is, the symbol,
the seeming promise of things to come - and b.) fearing to get
hung up too much about it all, filling myself with new
book-knowledge, collecting pictures, developing just a new
longing that I didn't have to fuss with before...
I mean: I want to strip naked (mentally! - physically it's quite
easy :) - I don't want to "become" a Kundalite, there is so much
to "become". I want to become nothing, want to be "nothing", want
to unmask, not wear brand new kundalini-clothes.
And also there is still the western-intellectual in me who is
very carefull not to build up any (ego-)self-suggested states...
fearing to pollute the process with descriptions that don't come
from "within" but from books. But I just can't deny the Kryias...
What to do? As always: Just relax into it I guess...
Kundalini/the Goddess will take care anyway :)
Have other members on this list pondered similar thoughts?

:-) That's lovely... enjoy!
