TheSelf

I don't know, I don't want to engage in any other form of yoga just to see the energy rises to even another levels and screw me up totally.

I'm dealing with it, still the same side effects except no intense headaches, I've attended a hatha yoga class a while ago and it's a bit better. The most annoying thing about the Kundalini is that it's always present in my experience, I haven't had a single day from the day it awakened that I didn't feel any energy. Forget about meditations, If you sit in quite and read a book, the calmness causes the Kundalini to rise up (it's always there but the intensity varies depending on your activities) it usually concentrates on head which makes it challenging to think once so much energy rises up and or makes you sleepy, feeling woozy, hallucinating, and painful in that area sometimes. Though, I've stoped the practices long ago, the energies only rises more and more as time did pass. I could tell him how I'm doing with my practices and how I feel and then he would give me the watered-down version of the techniques to suite me better for my specific situation, then everything would've been much more controllable and better for me, I didn't have to deal with any of these! 🙂

In short I was very sensitive to the practices I mean I quickly felt the energies and it all worked and excited me to dive deeply into it (it was mind-blowing and so exciting to find out it was all real), this quickly awakned my Kundalini, the energies then started to rise up to the head causing lots of headaches at those days, pain in the spine and some other side effects resulting of the energy functioning totally on its own still present. I stoped all practices long ago but once the Kundalini is awakened it can get only stronger and release more and more energies as time pass by. I believe experienced yogis or gurus gain some control over these energies, unlike Leo I don't think they're powerless when it comes to these stuff, so surely they can help.

Nothing for sure. But he is not the only one, I'm just saying just because it's hard to access one genuine one you shouldn't do it yourself and enter this territory which you have no clue what would happen to you if things get out of your control I did it myself on my own and I wish I didn't do it at all, but I was reckless with my practices... And there's no way to put the Kundalini back to sleep, at least out of our control.

I believe this where guru is important, Kriya Yoga can stimulate your Kundalini and awaken it easily resulting in release of immense energies that you cant control that could cause pain in the spine, dizziness and or hallucinations and some other side effect and in worst cases burn your nervous system, guru can help you manage all this. I was stupid with my practices (didn't take the warnings serious at all) and now I'm suffering some side effects of it for years.

Yes, the being, awareness, consciousness, life does exist in any states, only that whitch appears also disappears, And yes its absolute because it can never cease to exist, And being cannot be a quality because it's that which give rise to anything including all qualities. I'm always talking about one Reality which has many names, being, awareness, consciousness, life, God etc.

You don't know forms or creations in deep sleep but you exist, so it's another appearance withing the Reality, So no it's not absolute, only the pure being or existence or the screen as the OP has mentioned is absolute, free from all qualities.

@Carl-Richard we can go deeper, but I don't know what would be the outcome of this discussion, if you wanna continue discuss how spirituality compared to relegion, to eventually conclude that they are in one category let's just agree to disagree.

Just as the sun's light permeates and illuminates everything without being directly seen, Awareness or Consciousness or The Reality is exactly like it, the underlying essence that illuminates the experiences and perceptions without being directly observable itself. Just that You can actually directly observe it, by being it, cause you are it, you are those invisible rays that illuminates everything, the flow of the experiences, you are the sun itself. In the depths of the mind, where shadows dance, Lies a light unseen, a silent trance. consciousness, like an invisible sun, Illuminates the journey just begun. Its rays, they pierce through layers deep, Where dreams and thoughts in secret sleep. In every moment, it softly glows, Guiding us through life's ebbs and flows. Though unseen to the naked eye, It's presence felt as time drifts by. A beacon in the darkness, pure and bright, Guiding us through day and night. Like the sun that reigns above, Filling the world with warmth and love, Consciousness, a radiant force, Guides our path, our steady course. Though veiled in mystery, it remains, A silent witness to joys and pains. Invisible yet ever near, Shining brightly, without fear. So let us honor this guiding light, That leads us through the darkest night. For in its glow, we find our way, Through the cycles of night and day. Credit: poem generated by gpt.

That which exists and is conscious and is aware of himself as The Reality or Awareness, doesn't arise, existence doesn't arise, anything else does in it and is not real. Awareness does purely exists as just life, consciousness, knowing nothing but himself, we can imagine all kinds of qualities it might have or not have, but the truth is, it's free from all of it, pure awareness, existence is the Reality which is absolute in it's nature beyond anything the mind projects into it.

It's possible exactly because its called The Reality, the existence of it is not a quality of it but the nature of it. It's simple for me, the appearances has nothing to do with who I am as Reality, My existence is undeniable in any three states (waking, dreaming, deep dreamless sleep) So my presence is absolutely necessary for anything in my consciousness to appear and disapear, In order for you to be possible to question or think about the fact about your existence you first have to exist!!!

No, the energies clears up the pathways out of impurities and blockages and let the chakras to blossom, making it possible for the Kundalini energy to awaken gradually and make it's way up to the crown chakra and from there it opens the gate to connect to the universal consciousness leading to immense changes in ones state of consciousness.

Please take the warning very serious, yes the dangers are very real. Obviously everyones experience is unique but Kriya Yoga is the most intense form of Yoga, also you need to practice hatha yoga for a while to prepare the body to handle the current of energies otherwise your energetic system could easily burn and mess you up totally.

Simply the practices causes the energies to awaken and work their way to the crown chakra from the root chakra, This leads to massive shift in ones state of consciousness and obviously this sticks to you. Note that Kriya Yoga is extremely intense and can't be compared to regular meditation practices like mindfulness or do nothing. This is something that changes everything in you at physical and spiritual levels to lead to the higher states of consciousness. This stuff is intense, and needs to be done under the supervision of a guru.

@Princess Arabia Very good, if you've seen the reality behind the experience in an experience (you've awakened to it), then the work from this point is to keep seeing it, until it comes to the forground, otherwise you'll easily forget all these by going about your worldy stuff. Keep seeing the Awareness or Reality , aware, Keep seeing the light of Awareness shining nonstop while aware of the experiences that continuious.

Psychedelics can show you what is possible, what Kriya Yoga can do is a gradual change in one's state of consciousness by awakening one's spiritual energies.

Finding that balance between your inner spiritual world and the physical world could be tricky, reading spiritual texts, quotes, participating in spiritual conversations, spiritual practices helps to balance it out, if not your consciousness will continue it's subtle shift that probably is happening by maybe overworking and engaging too much in worldy stuff.

So what's understanding, let's get into it a bit, let me know your thoughts.

A pointer, yes, because the individual is seeking it, you are not forced to believe what has been said, you can verify if it's true or not in any way you like, you are free to explore everything else, you are not promised you go to heaven sleeping with hottest chicks you can have if you believe me. There's a big difference man. What has been taught as a teaching is to help ones individual in their personal journey, at some point the teachings will be droped, you won't take anything as faith like relegion. Please understand that nobody tell anybody to take anything as faith, brainwashing is not happening here, Liberation and realization is the result of looking inward for example, nobody says if you don't believe that you are God, you'll go to hell burn there forever. An individual may come to you asks for guidance about how to achieve spiritual liberation , you say go look inward, do self-inquery, the individual will experience a bit and see some results as a result of directly applying the techniques and experiencing for himself, and eventually drop everything being thought and archives what he was seeking. No in any sense you can categorize spirituality and relegion in one fucking bottle!! You do practices because you want to, because you experminted with them and it deeply resonates with you, nobody put pressure on you or tell you it would be your duty to meditate like performing Salat or Namaz in islam, you go to hell as a muslim if you don't worship, but won't go to hell if you dont sit and close your eyes and watch your flow of breathes lol Nobody is here to be part of Actualized.org relegion lol you are here because you find stuff you read here useful in your spiritual journey, because it's a group of people wanting to share and take each others hand and grow together in their journey ❤️

Let me know where to look at exactly. That's when they are no longer spiritual but religious, spirituality is about a journey within yourself, Let's delve into the difference between a spiritual individual and religious one: A religious person typically adheres to specific doctrines, rituals, and practices prescribed by their relegion or organized faith community, often participate in organized worship services, follow religious laws or commandments, and may adhere to a particular set of beliefs about morality, salvation, and the afterlife. In contrast, you dont see a true spiritual person adhere to any specific religious doctrine or belong to a particular religious community. They may engage in ancient spiritual practices such as meditation, mindfulness, yoga, etc.. to cultivate a deeper connection to themselves, others, and the universe. Spirituality is personal and focuses on an individual's inner journey, seeking meaning, purpose, and connection to something greater than oneself (or better to say realization of true self by droping false ideas about oneself) through exploration of methods and finding what resonate ir works on them through direct experience, BIG DIFFERENCE right?!!

The experience of understanding something is satisfying thou you could understand something wrong doesn't matter, it's satisfying to understand something, It's like happiness, when do something to get happiness and you smile or laugh, you feel good, you feel uplifted, understanding feels uplifting and satisfying!

You could understand something right or wrong, but at the moment of understanding it, you know that you understood it, Understanding is not becoming more or less conscious, it's a different matter, though could lead you to experience shift of state in your consciousness, Understanding is not becoming aware of new information you didn't know, Imagine you have bunch of dots in a paper and you connect the dots to come up with a recognizable pattern, those dots could be information, and the pattern is understanding of it, though it's in your mind, that pattern could be seen and understood differently in another person 🤔 So what's understanding itself.

Exactly

Any specific figures you wanna talk about?

Generally speaking no.
