Oops - I meant to post this to K-list but accidentally hit the reply button
on this questionnaire. It may not be timely anymore - I've been away and
have not caught up. Anyway, FYI if you want it.

> 1) What drew you to join this list? When did you join?
I read some of the postings in your archives and decided to join - that was
just this past September.
>
> 2) What do you like best about it?
I like the fact that it seems to be an open forum and the moderator is very
kind and supportive.
>
> 3) What do you wish were different?
Nothing at present.
>
> 4) Are you awakened? Share your story.
I've had experiences that go all the way back to early childhood. The
K-energy has always been there but I never paid any special attention to it
- I thought everyone had it. A couple of years ago (at age 50) I started
having spontaneous orgasms (no hands!) and OBE's (in greater frequency and
intensity than ever before) as well as some of the physical complaints that
many of your contributors have talked about. I've also struck spontaneous
yoga asanas and have learned (don't ask me how) to adjust spinal blockages
due to pain and/or negativity. I've always had an interest in the occult,
nature and spirituality but have led a practical and mundane life with no
time or inclination toward spiritual disciplines. Until I looked at this
web site I figured that most of what I am experiencing was menopausal in
nature and expected that most of your posters would be middle-aged women
like me. I must say I am surprised to hear from so many men! From what I
can gather so far it seems that people who markedly experience kundalini are
a small percent of the world population. We also seem to be (or perceive
ourselves to be) "outsiders" in relation to the rest of society. Kundalini
has no gender preference but I suspect that mostly women acknowledge and
talk about it as this energy seems to somehow become unleashed during the
years of the onset of the menses and then again at the end of the
reproductive cycle - very tough physically. I'm really fascinated by this
phenomenon.
> 5) If you were to add anything to the list website, what would it be?
> www.kundalini-gateway.org
I have nothing to add at present.
>
> 6) Are you a lurker or do you like to post? What value do you find in each?
This is my first post here. I am neither. I'll post if I think I have
something constructive to say or contribute.
>
> 7) Are you on other lists? Which ones? What are your favorites, and why?
I am on no other lists at this time. I used to participate in an on-line
Theosophical book study group.
Although structured and comments restricted to the topic of study, I found
it educational and interesting. It was well done and the moderators put a
lot of energy into it. Unfortunately, the group was eventually
discontinued.
>
> 8) Would you like to have regularly scheduled chat parties? When?
I have never participated in a live chat room. It might be
interesting...I'm open to that. Any time.
>
> 9) What do you see as the end goal of the Kundalini process?
I have a sneaking suspicion that it is an evolutionary goal and less of an
individualized one.
>
> 10) How do you define enlightenment?
I would call it an "epiphany". When you get an inkling of what the truth
might be and can begin visualize or try to understand it.
>
> 11) How do you define self realization?
When you have experienced the truth.
Sincerely,
Anamaria
