Well so they say , doing energy work is good for boosting your energy but so is eating things(after all without food we die).
I just wanted to know if someone has a spesial diet they use while doing energywork or one they just use strictly in spesial periods.

So what do you think? Does what you eat have anything to do with energywork/raising?

Ill give you mine Diet:umm I am no veggie , but i dont drink milk or dairy products (or as little as i can) ,when im going for a healthy foodwise period i dont eat much  potatoes (or much carbohydrates besides those natural in the things i do eat) wich is , fish , meat , salad and vegetables and fruit. And i stop eating before im full I wait a quarter if im very hungry after that ,then i eat a little more.  

Seems like when the body feels you had a meal but not fill your belly to normal levels. it will after 10min-15min assume it just wasnt more to get and turn on the content feeling.

Its my own diet and for me pounds run off if im getting a bit overweight.(10kg one month WITH exersise(a daily 20 min walk ) ,about 5 if not).
Why i dont use it all the time? well i realy dont wanna loose all body fat(yupp guess its just me whos crazy[;)]) and carbohydrates seems like a good way to stabilize(small gain) . And albeit on carbohydrates you dont feel as energized your stamina seems higher (you gotta eat several meals to keep activity up without carbohydrates in the long run as i guess the bodyfat is gonna run out if kept up without eating many times a day).

Eating fruit 10-15 min before every meal seems to give me a extra boost(eat it while i cook).
I instinctivly came up with it , while i had kundalini experiences ,my taste changed so it was what i wanted to eat(and when!). So i just been having it since as my diet for loosing weight and feeling extra energized for relative short periods(14days-a month) . Though i gotta admitt it doesnt taste so very sweet as it did back when i came up with it(LOL i was almost drooling everytime i made food then because of the smells).

I saw Mr.Kang posting hes replys from you (i assume) and they seemed very insightfull.

So I am making a new post on the same subject so you can spot it more easely.Hoping to get a few answers answered myself,as this subject is my reason for searching the more mystical parts of the web.

A little background , It began with a melatonin treatment for regulating sleeping , wich made me incredibli ill ,it was most likely kundalini bursting to life but i never heard of it nor cared for anything spiritual. In the end of that episode i just thought i was dying or Loosing my mind bigtime. I was depressed after that for about a month and kundalini/ilness went totally from my life.

Until I tried loosid dreaming years later, i did it often as a child and knew it was possible , and somewhere i read OBE was closely related so i openminded tried that too, thought never was i warned of something called kundalini.

I never made the OBE but after 6-9 hours trying (what can i say , you loose track of time in deep trance/meditation, i persived only about 2 hours)something burst to life and filled me errh with emotions ,wich i enjoyed ,but was terriefied when it began diggin into my body!
And seeking answers ever since.
 
1: The Snake or hand as i sometime persive it. is supposed to go smoothly trough the body ? What timeframe are we generally talking about? (important ,since when im not doing something halfassed i do have a knack of overdoing stuff)

2:Can it get stuck in some glands ?  hehe my worst kundalini problem i persive to be it picking on my prostata and other very sensitiv areas(glands) , wich will swallow up and cause great pains when it goes on for hours , is it something to remedy it( nudge it along)?

3: When it touches the glands(hmm and perhaps the spine to) sometimes it seems so sharp a sting wich is so diffrent from what it normally feels like ,wich is the softest soft so to speak. do you know anything regarding it?

4:Something i persive the snake/hand almost outside my body and very often picking on damaged/painfull areas of my body with it cool ghostly touch , why does it do that?(somtimes it feels better other times worse after)


5: Do you know of any websites or books that has any good info about kundalini without having to learn all about Hindu/Budism? Almost all info i found so far have been either cryptic interlocked in religion or fairly inacurate.

6: this is getting very big , so enough .Would you be able to answer more questions per mail ? If so pm me your email and/or any links to sites you think i would be interested in .

Have a Nice day you to[:)]

On this site they offer many improvement skills that seems absurdly usefull.  http://www.learningstrategies.com

Off course it costs money (probably lots), and with  promises this great (seems to great to be honest) I would be foolish to waste any money without hearing some impartial testemoney from others before committing.

So have any tried anything thise people offer and did you obtain the skill , and how big impact did it have on your life?

Also have anyone seen a free equivalent to some of thise courses/books ?
#29
Seem to me that only problems are posted . I never once seen a post ended with "im cured " or a new post saying "after posting last(year ,month etc) my sickness have deminished/gone completly and i feel fine".

It leads me to think either people isnt cured and give up faith(or succumb to illness). Or they are cured but doesnt give it a second thought.

So is there someone whos been sick and cured after posting here and if so do you think it was because of healing sent , or did you find another healing you would like give more credit for your recovery?
#30
Dunno where this belongs as its both about crystals and energy .

Anyway i been playing with crystals the last few days . Trying to heal my hand. Some wierd things have happened.

First night i slept with an amethyst at my bedpole , waked up and gone where the crystal . Pushed it over i thought but no . Found 1.5 meter   past several obstacles . I dont ussually toss and  turn , so i dont know what to make of it. I can only imagine i rose up tossed it and went to bed .

Next night i tried taping a Rose quarts on my wrist to make it better . After a while my hand was pretty warm and fussy and slept .
Found it under my pillow next morning (tape and all) .LOL must have slept very thight to not noticing the tape being removed.

Last night i tried the same trick once more with 1 improvement , i taped the Rose quarts on top of my wrist . and a clear crystal(dunno what you call it perhaps quarts) on the bottom.

After 10 min , it felt like live current where running in my nerves . tried to sleep , but it was not to be. removed 1 and 1 hours later the other. Woke up with a cold.

So anyone experienced such things , and are it good or bad? (i have cleared my crystals).

I found nothing espessially usefull in the crystal tread and searhing yeilds so many treads not related to crystal.

Just aquired me a few crystals to see if the aclaimed mombo jumbo is true =P
I suspect it might as i get very good/bad respons from my  magnets.

First how do you clear/initiate the stones , is it enough to use saltwater(must it be seasalt ?) ?  for how many hours ? can i have all in the same bath ?
Is clearing and initiation the same prosedure or is it 2 ?

i got a clear Hillcrystal(clear crystal) , a amethyst , a tigereye ,a Sodalitt , a malakitt and 2 rosequarts.

i got the basics in how the crystals work . But if you know a good combo(for anything) using thise crystals plz share .
Ohh and can i store them all togheater in a cloth or pouch ? or should they stay separate?

Anyone know if it would be possible to recharge the crystals with magnets ? if not how should it be done?

Is there anything else a newbee should know before experimenting?
#32
and exactly how it is executed and possess the willingness to describe it fully.

http://www.alchemywebsite.com suggest its use to regulate kundalini but assumes everyone know exactly what it is .

#33
Hi i was here a year ago and since no one knew the answer to my problems with obes i got proffecional help.(emotional problems)

My normal doctor gave me anti psycotics while getting more proffecional help.

Thats what changed a wierd reality even wierder .

They made me slightly psycothic(i was reasoning good before,and do today) and my emotions went off the chart everthing triggered a strong responce , i couldnt see tv cause no sence was to be had from it as i could only focus on emotions and not the story.

But more worringly things began falling down in me flat. Cd  ,bottles ,books all i could almost be willingly give to chance outward influence (like drafts).Execpt one , a coin laying well in a shelf that could only be moved by  earthquake (wich there was not).

It fell down suddenly and have puzzled me ever since.

Also my hair/scalp was getting much static charges building up and it actually hurt a little when one discharged .

My question is have anyone else gotten similar results with taking ANTIPSYCOTIC drugs (not recreational) ? thought it is a slimchance someone has plz respond if you heard of something like this or know of articals about this subject.

Do anyone have a teory about what happend?
#34
I just wondered how common is this , I shall not say for sure this is what happened to me.I felt wide awake. It was only after many hours i noticed i kinda felt a little like a trance. If this is what happened i just thought people should be aware of this before experimenting. as this is highly annoying.

Anyway what do you think , is this plauseble . If so how do you realy wake your self fully up and is there anyway to check no have no residue of the trance state in you ?And also how do you dispell any hypnotic scenarios you might be doing unconiusly ?(it No of the Normal protection things worked :shield , mind burn , praying , yelling ,begging , bannishing (lesser ban chant). )




#35
try. i just began trying to Project (not succsessfull yet) but i think i might have atracted something.

I read that its ussuall with pokes and prods ,and that what happened on my first projection try thought also more like stroking somethimes beginning on my right foot and working up to my more sensitiv region. Well i thought it was annoying but suddenly  ,Welll i had a orgasm (one of the stronger ones)

I thought neat , managed to go to sleep after , Today was a pretty normal day ,until i tried to Project. the stroking came (i know its normal with a little pokes and prods but im fairly certain this  is diffrent) and it ended the same as my last try , but now it dug its hand (i think ) into me and touches very sensitive nerves( or so it seems to me) . Now at the time of writing its many hours since my Projection try and im wide awake , but i still feel it very clearly nomatter how i position myself (thought i do not notice it while moving).

The touch is pretty ghostly and thingles when digging into me ,ecept the front finger(s) (when inside me) they make a physical touch feeling.
I also felt the whole hand hand resting on my back right leg and stumach (the stumach started rumbling several times then ) and it seems like some trance heavyness then (and the energy tingling you get from the when doing energy work). So now i feel like sitting on ants.

Sleep i can just forget about (soon 24 hours since last) ,it doesnt feel evil or that it can hurt me in other way then it allready is. But belive me it might sound nice to some (the sexual stimulation) but it is Highly annoing. So i need help since i have no idea what this realy is or what to do about it . I have tried the lightshield trick and the Bannishing chant ("acording to astral law I bannish you form my presence never ever to return 3 times) ,and im beginning to grow desperate.Plz help if you know something that might do the trick or know more about this.

#36
Just with that understanding makes you quite advanced . I guess this is the problem with many people just getting no where with new . They just visualise and think about it.
#37
Strictly speaking it is not a spacetransducer. But can partly said to transduce time , its the eyes that is the real transducer. (space is a no brainer [:D] and time is observed by looking on the sun to adjust timetracking hormone melatonin(wich tells when time to sleep ) or looking on a watch (thought no timeadjustments are being had by looking on this device but you get an idea of the flow of time)

After all with transducer its meaning is a device that turns signals from a normally not understandeble source(light) to a understandeble one(nerve signals/electricity).

So im confused Modernboy did you mean something else or? Off course if you where noncorporeal perhaps other transducer is present offering another perspective althogeather but are normally overiden when having body.

Welcome to Quantum Physics! / Time accerlerating?
September 08, 2004, 16:55:26
I think it could be caused by what it is compared with.
When your young you havent lived much and say a period of a month or year is a decent amount of time compared to how long you been around.

The young you can see is making plans for the now and imidiate future ,because later future is so bloody far away.Children have almost no thought for things happening a week away.
When i was 4 i remember my father going away for 2-3 months , after a week i had totally forgotten him , and realy wondered who he was when he came back(well i remembered eventually , i think)

The older you get the more living time you have under the belt a year isnt that much anymore and a month is afterall just a paycheck away.
More mature people seem to make more strategic choises for the future like when to take up loan , when in the year to take weekation.
Also perhaps our brains is getting more sloppy with the recording device cutting off a little here and there (what did you eat 6 days ago , a kid ussually knows,while grown ups takes a while if they can at all) it is details after all and we have seen it all before , not when were young and all info is usefull info .

My granny said before she died that the last decades realy went by quikkly.

The last thing i know effect time perception is , how much of the time do you track it , and how much fun do you have . They are kinda the same but not quite ,you loose track of time when having fun and time seem to go faster. But you can also just loose track of time (like getting stuck into a  cave without access to any timetracking devices ,like the sun) and time will still seem to speed up.

So the equation would be something like this
your age + how much fun you have/had + how informed you was of the passage of the time. = How fast the period is/was seeming to pass.

So  old guys having loads of fun without caring about time will find its time for burial pretty quikkly.

And to torture a child ,make him keenly aware of how wich day it is talk about the future and how long that is off. Make sure hes fun is always gonna be in future (going to cinama in 2 weeks ,holidays in 4 months etc) but keep the fun in the now to a minimum (homework ,chores etc). That way he should feel that childhood is REALY! a long time.

Conclusion : Our age is the main agent in how we track longterm time .
happyness and timetracking is what most influence the passage of time in the now.

Well I think if it where possible to travel backwards in time , it would be impossible to hit the right universe(paradox prevention ).But you could get back in time in a parrallell universe looking exactly like this at the chosen date).

Traveling to the future should be relative easy as it is in our universe design to do it(just need a cryopod a way to be revived safely and you got a rudimentary maschine).

So say you was tasked by the goverment going back and killing Sadam Hussain (Hitler is all used up in thise discussions[:D]) , I think they would see you leave (Disintegrate or something) but never to return again. And no changes would be detected(not that any changes ever would be possible to detect if you did hit the right universe).

I think it would apear as the maschine didnt work and they would give the project up . While you in the past(in another universe) would be able to shoot Sadam change event , heck even shoot yourself usurp your otherself life and realy be a bad person.

Hmm almost like alchemist associations with planets (wich is also assoiated with metals)

Saturn : Blocking ,protection,slowing down procesess(including life and mood processes, so despair and gloom is also saturnine qualitys).
Jupiter:Jovial ,lust ,practility.
Mars : Energy  ,strenght,masculinity.
Moon :Fantasy ,dream ,pureness(also mirroring the sun but moons pureness is  antiseptic rather than burning of sun ).
Mercury : Swift thinking ,spirit ,combining opposing elements togheater.
Venus : Beauty ,tranqulity ,feminity
Sun  : Abundance ,hearth , Pureness(by burning)

Seems prettymuch the same exept for Saturn and perhaps Mars . Saturn definitions are pretty much opposing.Wonder why this is so . Isnt Rosecrusian a offshot from alchemy?

Sygmoral try this ,takes max 10 min to execute(not counting reading it).

Lay down ,clear your mind (think about as little as possible ,failing that go over the sequence of action your gonna do.) 30sec to 1 min should do it(it aint wichcraft after all[;)]).

Now feel your feet , more than that focus all your attencion (no Imaginings thank you) on the area under your feet in the area that doesnt touch the ground when you walk(sole pit or whatever it is called). just errh feel this area out for a little while say 20 sec.

**drop this step if you where succsessfull and are doing it another time(its just supportwheel). Take your indexfinger slowly touch this area your focusing on (barely). Just as your touching it imagine( that you got a vortex in your skin and the area your feeling touch in start spinning taking the feelign with it (kinda a sluggish spin like calmly stirring suger in tea). Did you feel something? other that the finger ? like some tingly feeling?

Ok try another step afterward you should be more than relaxed by now as feeling out an area is like listening totally effortless. Spin the area up like you did after touching last step. Ready your indexfinger again ,but dont touch. Rather imagine (no visualisation nessery ,infact can be detrimental as they can distract from feeling)
that your finger got and large needlelike (1-2 inches)aura comming out from it. It has 3 colours ,the one you most associate with heat in the tip ,the one with stinging cold in middle and the one for electrisity in the end (if no coulour is had just try and imagine the last part is an electric field).

Now slowly pierce your soles where you hold your attencion(passivly expectanly feeling) ,with your finger aura ,its very sharp so a slight sting may be felt when connecting to the area wich is imagined as a little vortex right under your skin. Ok get your finger close enough so you can feel the 3 energy types repeat it a few times if you get feedback and pull it out.

Ok if you felt the imagined aura , do it again tommorow without the outlined step . Then NEW exercises should work better. If not well im sorry guess at least you not wasted more than 20 min with me (reading and execution).

Ye learn to enjoy what your doing , if you despise cadavers your going to feel depleted.. Meditate on it (imagine what your doing in all its glory ,smell ,feelings etc) ,and imagine you do so happily with little effort. I think its safe to say most people who disects human for living do so because they actually like it.(who else would take such jobs it sounds absolutly sickening to most people).

Same for talking to crowds if you think about what their gonna think about you ,your gonna use lot of effort getting it perfect only to find yourself forgetting the next line and have to look up ,wich cause more stress ad infinitum.
If you just learn the presentation reasonaably well ,who cares if you gotta look up now and then. Imagine thats its not realy a crowd but just a image of a crowd around you wich doesnt care one way or the other against you(wich is probably true). Also learning the tricks of speaking to crowds (like looking confident ,crowdsweeping gaze ,seeking a second or 2 eyecontact with important or randomly picked persons , using overheads equipment to draw attencion from you,etc.)

As for confrontations its an uncertainty element here ,what kind of confrontation are you talking about ,its big diffrence between claiming your right to return a new tv thats broken down and confronting your close friend wich has hes way with your wife!(wich will probably leave even the strongest jelly in the legs).

A talisman can help in that regard its between you and what you dont like and you belive it will reduce the unpleasantness of thise things. And if you belive it ,it most likely will .

The "blanking off mind" is that when you try to sleep and suddenly mind goes blank like you went away or did a "microfaint" for like under a sec duration? or does it happen at other times aswell?

Does the heat in your back always follow the "blanking of mind"?

The neckmuscles of yours is they mostly clenched\very thight ,do they rethighten soon after you manually relaxed them?

Does impact of you walking sometimes feel like hitting you right in the skull ,making you very dizzy and almost like ground jumped at you.

If yes to most of thise question .It is likely that your stressed out and have been for some time , further your family situation seems stressfull wich made me think of it. I not saying all your problems is stressrelated but some might be (like microfainting if it is that).
#45
Its very confusing isnt it ? Not knowing if your the fault of it or outside malicius forces . Well i got the symtoms of "things" entering me and playing havoc with my varius glands (troat , armpits ,prostate etc.) and also nervepathways .

But i had no communication with things claiming to cause me this or any other entitys. Nor do i suspect something in the real world is causing me this.

Well as i do not know whats causing me this (though i have theories)
im not going to try and give you other advise (as you seem worse off than me by far). Thought i think you should not blaim yourself for what has happend , its in human nature to be curius and i to openly embraced thise symtoms and played around with them.But seeing as they cause me more grief than pleasure, i now act indiffrently to them(until i can determine what is causing them better).

I would like to ask you a few questions to see if thise symptoms more than look similar(there is just so many with some similar symptoms but describe perhaps a little diffrent and getting them from diffrent practices).

1:Does thise feelings mainly come to you when resting ?

2:Does they quit after a while if you do nothing?

3:If not do you have truble sleeping?

4: If they continue for long periods , does they get worse the longer they continue , and if you go up do you feel like being in a trance\hypnoticed (Senses ampliefied , much more invardly turned than normal, and slightly harder keeping your balance when moving).

5: Does the symptoms follow your concius focus (like if you feel it mostly in your belly then shift your attencion to your troat does it become more keenly felt there?

#46
Well your brain doesnt get cancer from looking at candels.(from other thread). I would be concerned if you had the same symptoms before you did your exercises! If the headpressure is of a nature that is closer to what you get from a hangover(feels very internal). Then see a doctor . If more thingly (but still pressure that hurts good, but feels to originate externally) with the sence of some unknown force running over it , give it some days before seeing a docter.

Try and calm yourself(ye i know it can be hard) and if you truly persists in being afraid of a tumor see a doctor , and make sure that your calm when you see a doctor . Tell all physical symptoms , and even phycological symptoms(being worried etc.) minus all things relating to external pressure ,energies etc(the metaphysical).  If you sit as on ants and tell a story about "diffuse energies"/telekinesis etc. Hes not gonna think any thoughts about tumor, but rather give you pills to "take away the bad things". Thise pills will not work as intended if you where sane just a few days ago ! And can make matters worse.

Well remember i am no docter and diagnosing over the net is hard , i speak only from my own experiences and theories and give them as friendly advise also check the answer in the other thread.
If you have seruis truble sleeping get some sleeping pills.
Take A GOOD LONG pause from ANYTHING relating to the metaphysical and when you feel "normal" consider if the mystical rely is worth it.
#47
I felt that feeling pretty often . i guess the helmet feeling is the crown chacra. The flu if it originated the same time (or after you slept) as the headpain started . I would guess it could be energyrelated ,if so it will be gone in 24 hours. However if you did exercises while being sick , i have no idea how things manifests then.

ok if we dont consider the flue , the best way to get the helmetfeeling gone is to ignore it, and not do exercises. It can last some days still(but ussually clears after sleep).

For feelings in the back of the head and top neck , i would hazard a guess that those CAN be stressreactions from the body after reciving highly unussual stimuli. I could further speculate if energy/metaphysical work is then done ,it manifests as the famous "energy blockages". A way to check if this is so would be to check the neckmuscles (espessially in the neckpit) and see if thise feels much harder than normal ,even if you relax as much as you can.

A natural conclusion of this teory would be to explain that the wildly diffrent experiences of acupuncture in induviduals. Some feel that it helps ,and some feel much worse! According to my teory those people that are helped have resolved the phycological situation(subconcius) and the energy feelings will flow more "natural" and after a while normal situation is restored.

But those that are getting worse have NOT. The acupuncture can loosen the underlying muscles and the energyfeelings will be felt stronger. But the Psyclogical is NOT resolved. And the body will respond with thightening the underlying muscles even more after acupuncture. And if it is also true that acupuncture make thise energyfeelings flow more rapidly (wich is claimed) then the worsening for this induvidual will be a multiplication instead of addition !!

Hmm Alexd i should Thank you , responding to your post gave me pause to finalize my theory into this .Think i should put it in a new thread
#48
Perhaps you are confused with term "energy" ? For someone new to "energywork" all this talk about atmospheric energy and other kinds of energy "gathered"/"pooled" can be pretty confusing. For someone microwave energy can be just as mystical as talking about drawing energy from "higher places". And i guess(from the post[;)]) thought to be a valid source of thise mystical energies.

To be honest , no one can validate(as far as i know) just how much energy they are gathering(or passing trough them) at any moment. When you do energywork you get a feeling of energy passing trough or into you. It is just ASSUMED that those feelings actually carry energy with them (why else would they feel like it[:D]).

To be certain that you gather energy you would need a skill that works better when you feel "tanked up". So for the new person i guess it would be hard if not possible to verify if they actually are getting more energy ,since they cant run further ,lift harder or work longer. And the hard to get "mystical abilities" are no where in sight.

Infact i guess it would be totally valid for the critical eye to view NEW(the energysystem) or energy work in general as an art off harrassing the nervuos system!

I myself after 2 years down the road (and persive myself as having the "mystical" Speirema(Kundalini) .I am not totally sure off thise energies. I got no great metaphysical abilities. to verify progress with. But still i sence progress through it hurt less ,bothers me less(on ussual days) , and is getting stronger(on unussual days).
And i gotten smarter(measured trough IQtests ).  

And off course i had some hard to explain days where i couldnt tire no matter how i tried (2 times it happend) ,resulting in no sleep.
That is basicly what keeps me thinking it is something else than me going bonkers ,going on [:P].

Ok back to energy .Most people doing energywork , think about there is a a "great lake"(very basic terms) sorounding the universe and entering  through their head or feet (according to their spesific system) . Some persive objects like magnets or crystals to hold great energies useble for this purpose (see other threads[:)]).

And you are wondering if microwaves is a good source ! Right off the bat i can say it doesnt sound that much stranger than getting "fueled" by magnets. Both are a physical manifestation of energy(like real world) ,the only diffrence is while magnetic fields are rather unknown in their effects on the physical body , the microwaves are known to have a bad effect in large dosis (like from a poorly shielded microwaveoven).

So i would NOT recomend meditating or visualising about microwave energy right next to the oven going on FULL [:P] (infact to me it sounds hillerius ,but thats me). The same goes for sitting under powerlines(not microwave but still..) !

BUT ! Sitting in your room or outside and visualising or meditating about microwaves entering your body and turning into lifeforce or something ,cant be said to have any bad effects. I dont know about any system that actually does it . And if you still where to get physical ill effects from it , then i guess you done something metaphysical!!(same with good effects to!)

Markperson i would think that if you are a beginner and want play around with thise things, that a easy to understand system like NEW would be ideal(found on the frontpage of this site). But what you make off thise feelings your stirring up trough it , is totally up to you interpret(for good or bad).
#49
The Higher self is you thinking outside the "box" ,you identify it by thinking outside the box. Box can both be your head and/or your current state of mind. Whatever you feel is most limiting.

I do not think i yet become my "higher" self(atleast not highest) ,but i think im identifying it. I think it is a state.
But remember it is also a symbol on your "better" self ,no one can define "better" other than you.

So the "journey" is to think outside the "box" until you get some bearings ,and achives a state based on the symbol. This hopefully give better meaning to that symbol and a new similar "journey" begins . Journey is every action you take to understand and become more like the higher(=better=symbol)self.

#50
Hmm Enlightment as you describe it ,is as eastern religion describes it(more or less). Their goal are ussually Nirvana , trough complete disassociation with the world life ,including their bodys and to a great part their mind. How can there be suffering if what illness happens it not actually yourself ! The same holds true for joy [:P].
No attachments means Detachments!
There can off course be contentment and a longing of endless sleep/nonbeing -Nirvana .

Buddha didnt do any chacra meditation or esoteric things of any sort since it was against hes theories(since he made the religion) of the shortest path to ending it all and not being distracted by anything along the way. Chacra meditation implicitly gives away your intention of increasing your capasity to DO something!! While

Nirvana is achieved bye doing nothing BUT finding new ways of detaching yourself from the world (including spiritworld) ,as long as there is something at all possibly to detachyourself from DO IT and what remains is Nirvana!

While there can be great discussions as to what Mr.Bruce teaches it is not the way to Nirvana (or it is a heck of detour if it is [;)]). As I see it , he teaches tricks or small systems to achive some paranormal (or supernormal more like it[:D]) effects. Then tells you to interpret thise for yourself and suggest to consider demolishing your beliefstructure if it doesnt fit inside and build your own based on experience . Sort of make it your own kit!

About Speirema/kundalini and Enlightenment had from it . It totally depends on your definition of Enlightment (heehehe perhaps on your definition of kundalini also since it is a subjectiv phenomen in the sence ,no one can measure it or say you got it on other basis than what you say you experience[:D]).

But since you have provided a definition of enlightment and i persive to be having kundalini ,(I could be just plain crazy[;)].)
ill try and answer it.
No you wont end all suffering most likely you get added suffering of varius kinds thise have to be dealt with either by alliviating them or finding a way to co exist with them or crazyness is surely had in sooner or later.

Hmm I think you will find it extremely hard to detachyourself from kundalini as you kinda goto detach yourself from the body also , i find it extremly hard to belive but i am not walking that path either . I can only imagine that if you succseeded in that you could have found a shortcut (off course depending on the time it took)

As to complete freedom , i dunno what you lay into it . I feel perhaps more free mentally , but more bound emotionally. So no not complete freedom.

Extreme wisdom , again extreme could be good for me , or superextreme. But better understanding off your mind and ego is to be had than before.

So if we tally up our points . I come to the conclusion that YOU wont find that much Enlightenment in Speirema/kundalini.
 
However since i feel i have a greater ease of seeing logic in things and understanding abstract situations better and devising my own theorys on how things work faster and understanding that thise theories are just that(and not cold hard facts)! And can be HORRIDLY wrong(perhaps the most precius skill[;)], hope i dont loose it)

All off thise terms would I like to put into my abstract term "ENLIGHTENMENT" and yes I have it .Partly as a DIRECT cause of Speirema(bet you know what i mean with that word now[:D])
And Partly as a INDIRECT cause , since it got me to research (still doing it) this phenomen , and those texts pertaining to this is MUMBO JUMBO(put your own meaning in[:D]) riddled with abstract terms going well into the cryptical!!!**

"" The rest is just me explaining a little about those text and abstraction.""[
-----------------------------------------------------------------
**Partly i guess since it is neccery since they are talking about unseen forces. partly because the writers want that no one that didnt share they ENTIRE world view should not understand a word ! And finnally A few seem to have taken great steps to insure no one understands it , so it would seem impressive!!

But it is entirely possible that they are meant to be so to train the brain dealing with abstract terms and Speirema sort off makes POTENCIAL for progress in this "art"(of confusion perhaps[:D]) of seeing things in other contexts and simplifying it (thought not often have wise men actually used it to that since Jesus days!!![;)]).

Anyway I was saying Speirema sort of makes Potencial but the texts and other activitys (like trying to make computer programs) realise it.

Off course i guess if i sit in a room thinking just about what the unseen is might be like. I can manage to realise my potencial in crypticallity to points where a ZEN master would look like a question mark. Crypticallity is abstraction skill used without precion and without giving a refferance to what the reciever has in common!!
