Symptoms of an unexpected Kundalini Raising?

[Risu no Kairu]

I don't know what it is, but it sounds cool.

Well, not the spasming part, but, yeah, I think that comes from energy work, too. When I rest to do energy work, my fingers start to twitch, so I'll go with the energy work creating spasm.

Well, same thing man. I had to reply to this because your results are very similar to mine.

I just registered last night, am posting to this board more than any other board in my life, solely from the results I was seeing. Given I haven't really had a being of great power come to me, but I think I have had a few. I feel like a newborn baby sensing that subtley pulsing fog that seemingly out of nowhere forms over me, like a kiss to the eyes, when I work on oobes. Or this morning when I held my slightly developed hand over various chakras when I was running to "keep on going" even though I had no physical energy left; that really impressed me.

Well that's all I'll say for now. Ramiel I think you're advancing faster than me though, and I thought I was moving fast! []

[Ramiel]

Ybom,

Its good to find someone who can relate to what I'm going through (not that what I'm going through isn't great - it is, didn' want that to come off sounding tragic or negative!) Anyway, please don't think that I'm advancing faster or am in any way better than you. Our purpose and our goals for this life dictate both our highest available level of development, and the pace in which we progress.

If you want to try and advance yourself further may I suggest daily energy work. I've been using using the White Light method, courtest yof Tayesin's homepage, that method can be found here: http://www.geocities.com/tayesin/index4.html

I got results the first time I tried it, so I don't see why you shouldn't. I think it would be good if we tried some experiments together, we can find out more about our abilities if we test different things and report our findings back here. This is what I have so far:

1) The greatest amount of energy I've been able to sustain in my body was when I was using the White Light technique coupled with Tayesin's recommendation on pushing out the "White Light" to every room in the house, clinging to the walls.

I have yet to achieve this amount of energy again since I havn't done the exercise like before, I havn't pushed the White Light out as well as I did (I've only done this extended White Light exercise twice - one downstairs in our living room which is the center of the house, second time in my bedroom which is in a corner of the house.)

I noticed that when I didnt have something to do, ie. after I had finished pushin the light to all areas of the room, the energy began to disipitate, initially from my head (it was covering my entire body except my face.) In order to prolong what I was feeling, because it was so great) I visualized reinforcing the energy throughout the house, and on top of that visualized a hovering ball of white light in the room, which I fed and then triggered, so it exploded and covered the house with even more white light.

After this I just had no idea what to do so I let go.

2) I managed to achieve an ultra relaxed state, with complete calmness a couple of nights ago. I was in my bed and just using the standard White Light approach. Initially I had my eyes open and they were glazing over, it was as if the energy was trying to make me see something else, but was just uanble to.

Anyway, I just closed my eyes and instead of having the focus of getting as much energy as I could inside of me, it was just to let it flow throughout my body. My breathing slowed a lot, I noticed. I wanted to see if I could reach a Lucid Dream or OOBE through having the energy when I fell asleep, however this was not the case. Possibly due to my own lack of development in this area.

Those are the two main experiments I've done that have had different results from what I usually experience. I'm starting to open myself up and let energy into me whenever I'm just living life, I don't do it for long, just enough to get the rush and possiby a little spasm. However I'm noticing that I can control the spasms to an extent, when I don't have too much energy inside of me.

I've been given a new exercise, to gain as much energy as you can, and then to visualize channeling it and letting it flow into a searing hot ball with a red colour, sort of like the colour of metal when its being forged. The ball should be just below your Heart Chakra. I'll be doing that today so feel free to try and it and post your results.

Finally, I recommend doing the White Light exercise 2-3 times a day, the more you do it the better it will become and you may notice increases in your development.

Thanks, and sorry for the long post!

Well that was interesting.

I absorbed some energy to the point where I was comfortable, and then projected it outwards (drawing energy from the white light and on the exhale expanding it out throughout my house.)

Apart from one of my housemates coming home and no doubt thinking im a nut, it went quite well. One thing I noticed, which I got even "worse" the last time I had this much energy in me, is that my Heart Chakra gets very heavy and tight.

I read some more of the book today and they mentioned that when you give energy out from your body, in the world, it comes from the Heart Chakra, so I think this may be the reason - because this Chakra services as a conduit where the rest of my bodies energy gathers before being released into the world.

I got almost to the same point as I did the second time (ie. the most intense) except stopped because I was happy with the energy I had accumulated for me to store. However my spasming has reduced quite a lot which can no doubt be a good thing. Currently I feel a warmth inside of people, possibly due to the excess energy thats now concentrated inside of me, any other energy has gone or is fleeting quickly.

Sorry I haven't posted regarding my results...I sort of lost this thread thinking all hope was lost at first. I found that I had to actually click on my name...and you know, how silly of me []

Ok, over the last couple of days I've been gathering my energy back up from the "outburst" I seemed to have done unintentionally. I dunno if I gave my energy to a shadow, or what, but it was fight or flight so ugh.

I'll look at that page tomorrow, I'm going to try working on filling my main chakras with energy all at the same time to see if I get more of a benefit from it. Mostly I'm just exhausted, so hopefully by the end of the week I'll be back to normal.

[Ramiel]

Hey, sorry to hear about that and I hope you're feeling better by the end of the week. Something interesting that I just rememered out of thin air was a few nights ago..on Sunday (I posted about this earlier) I did some very calm energy work in bed to see if it would trigger an AP or a LD. While those two things didn't happen, I DID remember waking up in the middle of the night, and when I went back to sleep I could feel my body going into the deep trance which I experienced before my first LD. Quite possibly to achieve these fully altered states of conciousness requires me to do something while I'm in this trance'ish state, but that answer alludes me for the time being.

The next thing I remember is some vague details about the dream and I was awake. Don't know why I remembered it out of the blue, but I'm happy I did. From now on I'm going to channel up to my 3rd Eye Chakra before I go to sleep. I just woke up from a siesta, where I channeled to my 3rd Eye Chakra before sleeping, and because I had my eyes closed I got so many amazing shapes and colours, lots of "peeling off" from the blackness to expose new shades of black etc. I was also feeling altered levels of calmness, as if I was trying to punch through a barrier but wasn't able to.

Another thing that seems to be happening is that my dream recall is shot to bits recently. I could be APing and LDing and wouldn't even remember it. A lot of the time I get just bits and pieces of dreams that really don't tell me a great lot. It seems when I just dream normally without channeling any energy that recall improves.

[Ybom]

I haven't had much activity at all at recalling my dreams, I just assumed I stopped alltogether until I got to this site, since I was out of energy and such ALWAYS after EVERY night of sleep (dang you, Star Trek!)

Anyways, I got this wierd lump in the middle of my right hand now, not sure at all what it is, it isn't a blood blister or anything either.

[Aphex-twin]

wow ybom really i got something similar i got two blisters that look like snake bites on my left hand the weird thing is it appeared there after i had a dream of shaking a mans hand while we were shaking hands he said something about my nails and i remember having a real nervous feeling in my stomach and than i woke up and had these on my hand that was like a month ago and it wont go away i whent to the school nurse and she said it looks like i got bitten by a snake i dont have a snake.

[Ybom]

Well, in recent news, I'm still tired!

Anyways, I don't concern myself witht he lumps...the seem to be a byproduct of working this stuff. A few weeks ago I had a spider bite looking thing on my left wrist on top, still healing. And since I was about 12 I've had a small white ball in the pad of my left pointer finger. If you want pictures...I can get em

I've been working on having oobes as much as possible. I was at work today and I get sudden rushes of dizziness now, but these actually disorient me (well if you're just standing around and you get dizzy, you'll probably get disoriented too!). I'm about to get some rest, but force myself awake for as long as possible, almost strain myself. I'll probably give in, but at least I tried again for like the 10th day in a row.

Delusions of Grandeur involving this stuff can make a bored person much less bored However, if you actually succeed at those delusions, what then?

I've been working daily to clear and strengthen my chakras and my aura using meditation, visualization and the sound vibration of each chakra. I've found that after I do the energy work to each chakra, then I work with my soulstar and my earthstar. From the soulstar I create two lines that connect to the universe and the ultimate power of light, knowledge and love. From the left I drain all negativity, and from the right I draw the energy of the light. From my Earthstar I also create two lines and again use the left to drain all negative out of my body where it travels to the earths core to be released and filtered. From the right I draw the energy from the earths core into my body. The idea is to do both the soulstar and the earthstar simutaneously to ground yourself. I use the new energy from both to increase the color and the energy through my chakras and aura. It really intensifies the energy and brightness. If I work with everyday my dreams, and memories of dreams are strengthened, also feeling I find I am more calm, and connected, feeling of peace and more understanding of people. It seems to work both ways too, I find people are more friendly, and bad ones stay away. Sometimes the chakras in my palms just start vibrating, and I can feel the energy there.

Hey everyone,

I'm in Sydney at the moment but still practicing. Mostly experimenting with Chakras and energy signatures and things like that. Keeping a journal of my experiences, its great for reflection and to improve memory - I highly recommend it.

Serena it sounds like you're doing really well, and I can feel the renewed strong in the words you write - I hope your battle is going well for you and that you're finally reaching a crossroads where you can resolve the issues that have been plaguing you.

Ybom, sounds like you are making progress! Good to hear, sorry I havn't replied to your email I've just gotten down here and have been quite busy preparing for my holiday.

Look forward to hearing more of your experiences soon.

Regards,

-Alex

I think I'm doing better, but I'm on vacation from work right now, and that seems to have put a damper on my progress just a tad. I keep trying though, but I seem to be having more recall power right now than progressive power. When I get a chance, I'll see if I can make a more in depth post as to what I'm trying to do at specific times, but I'm not sure when I actually can.

The main thing I think is important is I'm back to not being as tired again! It may be because my mother is very supportive of me and may be contributing in other ways than she can possibly imagine. I'm still trying to convince myself to start that journal (damn stubborn subconcious!), those are the generalities, and as I said I'll get more in depth later.

Alex, you rock [8D]

Ok, a little background information. The last couple of months have seen a completely changed outlook on life, with a much more profound focus on developing my spiritual side and utilising the tools that are provided to us, as well as significantly more insight into established institutions, human relationships, and the nature of life itself. Several character traits have also come to the forefront, the most noticable being my increased compassion for people, and desire to help friends and family where I can (a trait no doubt bestowed upon me by my mother.)

I purchased a book today, "Kundalini and the Chakras" by Geneveve Lewis Paulson in the pursuit of finding more information. One of the things she stated was that an Unprepared Raising could occur while a person was sleeping, and I think this may have been my situation. She highlighted changes in people similiar to what I described in the first paragraph (among a lot of other things, these are just what I've seen apply to me.)

I've also noticed a sensitivity to energy, which came to my attention when I felt a being's presence (who was requested to visit me by a third party) and was told that the third party who asked this being to go to me couldn't sense the energy I was feeling, and believed I must be quite sensitive to it in order to feel how I was (complete awe, beauty, passion, and majesty throughout my body.) I've also noticed some pretty "full on" experiences when doing energy work (and really, I've only JUST started, this is the fourth or fifth day) Finally, when I relax my entire body I can sense and vaguely feel energy in different parts of my body flowing, especially in my arms (not sure why its so emphasised there.)

Finally, I've recently been getting spasms in real life (nothing bad just muscles pulsating without warning) and they have increased the more energy work I seem to do. They also happen with every breath when I'm actively undertaking it.

I don't want to rely on this one piece of literature for all my answers, because I think thats a serious conflict of interest when trying to get all the pieces of the puzzle. One should have numerous sources to draw upon when making his conclusions. Thus, I was wondering if people could tell me if they have had similiar experiences? Or know of people who have? Any information that relates to what I'm experiencing would be very beneficial.

Thanks,

-Alex
