Guru Siddhananda has offered and compassionately brought forth letters that were written between her and Guru G during the course of her kundalini journey. They are being offered here, to the ashram community, in a series of installments with the knowledge that they may benefit others. Many thanks to both Guru Swami G and Guru Siddhananda for their never ending Compassion and Grace.
S: Hi Crystal:
G: Namaste Dear One -
S: I read your writing about your experience with Kundalini. I, also suffer with hot extremities, nausea, mucus in my throat spontaneous yoga movements etc. I feel very sick much of the time. I am a single mother and very much would like my health restored. It sounds like your experience completed itself. What do you suggest for someone suffering with this strange experience?
G: First of all we need to look at some relevant things... first of all a history would be helpful.... as to what precipitated this - how long has it been in progress - where are you living - do you have any spiritual practices now and if so what are they? what is your general lifestyle and routine? What is your age etc.... do you at present eat a vegetarian diet or meat... if meat how often and what type.... all of these things may have some bearings on what is going on..... am most willing to help you with this.... and understand attempting to raise a child during this happening...but have faith you will make it through as i also made it through...the more background you can share the better it is and the more amunition we have to begin with so to speak.... as this must be traversed related to who and what you are.... each has a different experience no two are ever exactly alike.... and so this must be dealt with on an individual basis.... working one to one in close contact to monitor it as it progresses......
S: I currently see a movement therapist and healer.
G: A healer may not be the best avenue at this juncture... as what may happen is that two much energy may be being put into a place that is already blocked.... and may only stimulate that which needs to be rested.... this is a common occurance that i have come across....people think that the energy must be moved but what must happen first is to understand the process and to see the whole framework and makeup.... it is not simply a body process... it works on 3 different levels at once.... and you must learn how to move through the experience in balance.... otherwise it can be quite unpleasant....
S: I am also going to start back on antidepressents. Please, I so much want to feel balanced. I've been suffering for four years.
G: Antidrepressants for the most part will give no relief and may only create more toxins in the body.... you will find more relief in understanding the process and starting to do techniques and changing your perceptions... this will bring much quicker and longer lasting relief than anti-depresents....trust me on this have been through the whole medical shop monitored - poked - evaluated - labeled etc...and there was no relief but simply it created more headaches...
S: I also see colors everywhere. Please write!
G: Then this is showing that the psychic or subtle realms are opened...do not attempt to build any psychic experiences as none of these bring Peace and Stabalization in the end..... this is a start as to know where you are.... the more you can share with your thought patterns and bodily experiences etc. may also help to shed light just at where you are stuck....where the energies are being caught up....where we are starting on this journey.... once again first of all just relax - am happy that you have arrived - am most willing to help you through this experience to completion....what is your spiritual tradition as we may relate from that point of referance so that it does not become to foreign...first we must work to stabalise you and to get you to a point of understanding and from there then we can begin to work.....
Dietary wise if there is mucus in the throat area try cutting back on dairy.... if mucus is in the stools then cut back on red meats...for heat begin by getting away from to many people and walk on the bare earth if possible....the heat may take a bit of time to correct as we must work on your consciousness levels....try eating only when hungry and lite meals.... don't over tax your system with heavy oils etc....do not want to give out to many practices or advice until the whole pattern is seen and known....here are my sites feel free to visit any of them...
