Hello Forrest, I have already posted several messages 
here that spoke from my personal experiences with 
meditation and the absorption states.  I am presently 
providing canonical support for those insights and 
attainments.   
 
Those who have arrived at the various charismatic 
phenomenat that is these days called Kundalini, might 
find canonical support of value. 
 
Kindest regards, 
 
Jeff Brooks

If this is something you yourself have been 
experiencing, it would be  
more  
helpful for you and us if you were to tell us about 
that in your own  
words,  
even clumsily, rather than appealing to the most 
skillful words of some  
other person. 
 
I know there are many powers and interesting states of 
mind that people  
can  
find in the course of their development, and I'm here 
because I'd like  
to  
experience more of that. But I've also been told, in 
one source after  
another, that none of these things are in themselves 
"seeing our true  
nature." Which is a rather simple nonthing when one 
gets down to it. 
 
Without "our" awareness, where is the world, our 
thoughts, "us"?
