Kundalini Rising

My Awakening journey has been on track for many years and I have made some good progress and had a number of insights and spiritual break-throughs. Yet, in all this while, a pain body was following me around. First, I blamed my stressful job but later when I upgraded myself to become an author instead, I blamed the loneliness instead. Then one day I just had it! I sat there with the pain and I faced it. Actually, I didn’t really sit, I paced instead. I carried so much energy in me that I would have died sitting there. I cried, I screamed, but mostly, I paced or danced. Believe it or not, several light bulbs burst nearby as I was pacing the floors, so much repressed energy was erupting. Then I had a strange experience—it was a feeling really. With my spine erect I realized that there is a level right around the neck area that seems crucial. Once our kundalini energy rises above it, all ego cravings and fears dissipate, just stillness of thoughts prevails and peace of mind. Importantly, the emotional pain body also vanished.

In my experience, kundalini energy rises in proportion with our spiritual evolution. Our chakra energy centers open up when we are ready for spiritual break-throughs. Still, it seems to me like the physical energy movement can be stimulated and advanced with the help of an erect posture and rhythmic breathing. With that insight, 2019 might be a good time to pick up a yoga discipline or join a meditation group. It seems like a worthwhile spiritual investment.
