Fellas, typing this in a hurry, doing some errands on the side so please bear with the typos and shit. They say when the kundalini has pierced the last chakra, a person enters into a state of bliss, also known as samadhi. I read a poem by Rumi a while ago and it seems to allude to these states of bliss (tell me if you already feeling the tingling). In Intoxicated by love, Rumi writes Because of your love I have lost my sobriety I am intoxicated by the madness of love In this fog I have become a stranger to myself I'm so drunk I've lost the way to my house In the garden I see only your face From trees and blossoms I inhale only your fragrance Drunk with the ecstasy of love I can no longer tell the difference between drunkard and drink Between Lover and Beloved I've been exhaustively exploring eastern spiritual tradition and concept these past couple days. According to Eastern spiritual traditions originating the kundalini resides in the last bone of the vertebral column. These days I'm studying kundalini yoga guys.. And yes it's kinda insane. I really don't know the effectiveness of it, just exploring as much as I can. That state of pure union is what the mystics of every spiritual path reference, a rose is a rose by any name. There are different names to these but I think it all comes down to that one specific experience shared by all. It’s what Buddhists refer to as Enlightenment, what others call a spiritual awakening, or what Teresa of Avila, the Spanish Carmelite nun, refers to in her text on the seven mansions. As seen by its appearance across spiritual disciplines, a kundalini awakening can happen to anybody at any time on any spiritual path. Have you felt it too? I'm just beginning to gather bits of it in my regular practice, still not fully incorporated it. You don’t have to practice Kundalini Yoga, for instance, or recite a particular mantra to have your kundalini rise. The only commonality among kundalini experiences is the feeling of intense devotion or love for a Higher Power. Hopefully that made sense. When you have a deep longing for the divine, when you want to feel a sense of union with something greater than yourself, that’s when it’s said your kundalini has awakened. That can happen from walking in nature, reading a book, attending a lecture, learning meditation, having a dream – the list goes on. However, the kundalini doesn’t have to stay at the base of the spine – it can travel up your spine to pierce seven energy centers or chakras. At each chakra, the spiritual feeling is different and graduates from, “One day I will be one with Source energy,” to “I already am one. There is no difference between me and the creative energy that powers the universe.” Have you ever experienced something familiar? Just wanna know if someone here felt that intense boost of energy in the spine. I've even heard that kundalini can be dangerous but I really don't know yet. This is just my foray into these subcultures whereby I'm learning strange tantryc practices As I was meditating through space, and feeling the collision of energy and time, I began writing my thoughts in the form of a poem. I titled this poem as — A TRIBUTE TO KUNDALINI. A tribute to kundalini Both joy and love bring the world closer. No beginning and no end. Just a ray of light. The journey is long, the battle isn't over Glistening and wet, deep in the distance We look at this world with curiousity and myth Kundalini arises, it's never relinquished. Rises like a tsunami, it will always flicker in hope And come to you when you need it the most. Sometimes I imagine the kundalini might peirce through the different chkkras on the spine but sometimes I wonder if the kumdalme Let's see. I believe kundalini is the fusion of masculine and feminine energes. The Kundalini process moves dormant kundalini energy along the spine. It is waking up the divine feminine spiritual energy, known as the Kundalini serpent, that lies coiled and locked at the base of the spine, also known as the root chakra, one of the seven chakras that run along the spine to the crown chakra (seventh chakra). Kundalini chakras covers the in´s and out´s of kundalini and chakras. My symptoms included feeling like reptiles crawling over my lower back (spinal cord)and then ascending towards the neck where they meet at a center point right at the back of the neck. I even looked up some advice from Sadhguru regarding these practices. What kundalini did for me? It made me more creative. It does bring intense energy. Also my emotions are more charged when I'm feeling the energy coursing up my spine.

I try to avoid the word solipsism as much as possible. -
Does your creativity stem from love?

I've invented a term based on your post. "Emotional arrogance" - the bad habit of dictating how someone should respond or feel without asking them how they actually feel. Your post is a good anti-dote to classic red pill. Much of red pillery is an aftermath of such thinking as displayed in your post. I'm thinking of a vital point from Leo's video - think before you speak. A lot of people don't do that. Also take into account IQ factors. Most people who are into rigorous philosophy and academia do not think like that because they are very analytical. Most people who think this way have average to low IQ and are generally pumped up, lack emotional logic, are into sports or conservative politics, agenda driven, use instinctive perception rather than awareness perception, do not care to listen or are low on the openness index of the Ocean 5, are usually oriented to shock value and click bait content generation and produce sensational content without homework. They are also very primitive. Classic immaturity. They fit in all paradigms of immaturity in Leo's video. They penetrate mainstream media with that Joe Rogan hustle ethic. I would also say such people lack real experience and fortitude, and are incapable of extra human capacity. What I would call Para sensory. It's not easy to have a deep understanding of things without a psychic-intuit empath ability. It needs ginormous emotional capacity/EQ(another point from @Leo Gura video). A combination of genetics, cognitive development, environment, culture, emotional maturity or lack thereof and arrogance, throw it all together and you get those numb skulled people Unfortunately a lot of these are infesting social media. And they're oddly successful because shock value sells better than academia and Analytical reasoning. Like Leo said, our ancestors would be appalled at the way ideas are spewed in the current socio political spectrum. Nobody wants to put in emotional labor. -
If you are exhausted, then I don't know what would happen to us mortals. Also there's no real tripping if it's just a dulling experience. The end goal of tripping should be able to gain some insight that will aid contemplations and not just a bunch of hallucinating. Lately you've been on a ride though, always tripping.

Your cards mean - You're too enthusiastic for a romantic opportunity. You might attract someone you desire. This might take you on a ride. There's no indication of a soulmate. You're dreaming a romantic relationship. This means you can be easily disappointed. Keep your hopes low and have a practical approach. You're too dreamy and heady, an invitation to problems. Let love come to you organically without you putting effort into building untrue illusions.

It's all good. Just imagine that you donated your awakening. Now that makes you the bigger one. -
