I would just call this being normal level.

I'm allergic to veganism. True story.

It's kinda symbolic and real at the same time. Yes it is just a model to describe something that is far more complex than just 7 centers. But there is an element of truth to that model. Different schools have different models to describe the same thing. I have a problem relating with this topic of chakras myself when I try to fit my experience into certain models. I tend to cherry pick from different models the elements that I can relate to and then make my own personal map, lol.

Nadis, meridians, chakras, energy is all a living reality for me. It doesn't take much spiritual progress to confirm at least a little bit of that. There are people who try to say it's all just psychological or it's just biology, metabolism etc. I can only roll my eyeballs to such comments. Although many people who talk about chakras are also full of bs. There're people who talk bs on all sides, lmao. Maybe I'm full of BS. It's crazy amount of misinformation on the internet. I find that there are as many opinions about this subject as there are people. I remember seeing this guy long time ago.

Idk, maybe I was too hard on Kundalini. Every way can be valid in its own way.

It means you're holding yourself back. Otherwise there would be just sexual expression without the tension.

That doesn't sound good. I think every energy expert would advice you to leave the spine alone until you can solve your spine problem. There are ways to do it that mainstream science is not aware of. There's nothing there on the other side really. Your spine will vibrate, you will feel excited for a few days and then you'll forget about it. Unless you have strong attachment to such phenomena then you may develop a strong identity around it and boost your spiritual ego. Often it is the ego that is attracted to such things to begin with. I'm telling you from experience it's overrated crap. It only sounds fantastical because of all the marketing. If you want real gold, work on opening the central channel of the heart that give you access to grace and God's light, spirit communication, expanded intuition, love conciousness, astral travel, miracles and more. The heart and Zen are the only 2 things worth cultivating. Love and wisdom. Not vibrations up your arse. Vibrations will come by itself as one practices zen and prayer in a much more wholesome and balanced full-body way.

Of course it's going to feel blissfull and liberating when there are tingling sensations going up your arse. Although it's true that every path has same validity in the end.

Celibate polygamy is probably the highest.

That's a good point

"For in The Way of Knowing, it must come to pass that the mind is converted from fear to Love, from doubt to perfect faith. And perfect faith is not that beginning and intermediate stage, in which one is choosing to have faith in things unseen in the hope that they might materialize, for perfect faith casts out all fear. Faith, then, when purified, when matured, when totally realized, is the same as complete forgiveness, the return to peace, and the Knowledge that only Love is Real."

Hope means you're expecting a positive outcome. Faith means you're in surrender to love regardless of the outcome.

Faith is putting your trust in something. You can also invest your faith in a wrong thing. But putting your faith in love is wisdom. Faith in God is wisdom. Faith will save you.

Faith makes your heart open and receptive. Without faith there is no access to love. Without love your life is a 404 error.

I can share my personal experiences with Kundalini. It's total bs Ideally what you want is love and wisdom, not tingling sensations up your butt.

When that happens to me, I just absorb them into my system like it's breakfast.

Evolution

I'm cool with that.

I would disagree

I wasn't in denial of the irony. Quite the opposite, I'm satisfied with the outcome it brings.

And now you too

No substance comment

See, that's impossible. Love is always a relationship. It is the union between two that creates love. One part of Self is in loving acceptance to every other part of Self. Therein is infinite love. Therein God is having an infinite relationship with itself. God is one, yet multiple at the same time.

There has to be a flaw in your reasoning somewhere but it's hard to pin it down. Probably here. There is no such thing as lower case love and capital case love. The lower and the capital love is the same love. It's just that one is partially inclusive another is all inclusive. But it's still the same act of inclusivity.

That's true but duality is not an illusion. It's as real and valid as nonduality. Duality is part of nonduality and nonduality is part of duality. They create each other. Oneness creates duality, duality creates nonduality. One cannot exist without the other. They are one inside the other. Like life and death. Like a snake eating its own tail.
