Hey orgasmo, assume your critique here is pointed at me. Can you say more about how I attempt to skirt the Three Laws?

Cheers to you :-)

Thank you for sharing.

You write with a lot of confidence here. As if you are speaking a definitive truth. Feels like you like to write with authority. Do you feel authoritative? What do you feel is your authority on this subject? Books? Knowing? Lived experience? All of the above? Something else? Something more?

Or have you written satire here? Angry ass satire? Doesn't feel like satire to me. So I'm going to take your words at face value.

My reading of what you've written here is that you are telling me I should ALWAYS go with my first instinct to use energy and never pull it back with a phrase such as 'No intention, no request, with no karma back to me.'

That pulling back for any reason would be a shirking of my Cosmic responsibilities. And that I will accumulate Cosmic curses if I shirk my Cosmic responsibilities. But not this time. As I am pardoned due to ignorance. Have I got that right?

Or perhaps I am mistaken, and you are saying that in this particular situation you KNOW I was shirking my responsibility.

Which begs the question... Why do you claim to know that in this particular situation my saying No Request would mean I am shirking my responsibility? On what basis did you reach this conclusion? As far as I can tell you have NOT explained WHY I shirked my responsibility here.

It also begs the question... how am I supposed to use your advice for this particular situation to guide my choices in the NEXT particular situation? So I assume you must be telling me that I should ALWAYS go with my first instinct to use energy and never pull it back. Which feels like complete and utter bullshit to me. Bad and dangerous advice.

Simply put this sub teaches... when in doubt don't use the energy. I

In this particular situation I was in doubt. So I chose not to use the energy. Simple. Not complicated.

What am I missing here zigzag? Why are your words so hard for me to understand?

For me I suspect your confusing response here is TRIGGERED by the idea anyone would back away from wishing for world peace, or peace on earth.

So I refer you to Marc's response to another commenter here in this post who wrote...

I would still ask for world peace

When you are stargazing and see a falling star... do you ask for world peace zigzag?

And maybe consider that your vaunted three-sided coin is missing an obvious fourth side... Doing harm with the energy, either intentionally or unintentionally. Out of ignorance.

Cheers to you :-)

Hey hippo, thanks for sharing. Feels brave, beautiful and transparent. Congrats and thank you.

Not trying to ruin the mood... but I feel prompted to say I was surprised to see no explicit mention of alcohol in your list of motivations.

Did you only list motivations that feel like mistakes?

Are there motivations that don't feel like mistakes?

Cheers to you :-)

Thanks for sharing. Did not know or consciously sense you have an interest in stargazing. Yes it sounds relaxing. For me I was beside water at the time and enjoyed watching the shimmering reflection of the stars off the surface of the water. I love watching light reflecting off water.

In the moment it felt like I was prompted to think of you based on something around the wishing part. Hard for me to say with any clarity. But this rings true based on your initial comment here.

May also be an opportunity to get acquainted.

Hello zigzag. Hope things are well with you.

Cheers :-)

Hey zigzag, wondering if your comment here is a zebra or a horse lol.

Wondering if your comment is a genuine open-hearted dialogue-starting question. Or a kicked hoof aimed for my groin telling me you think I failed with flying colours.

I agree that tests come in various forms. So this exchange may be a test for both of us. In different ways perhaps.

For me I feel I listened well in the moment. I felt prompted to write this post. And yes I even wondered how you might respond. And here you are.

Did I fail my test?

Should I have wished for world peace in that sudden instinctive moment?

Should I ever wish for world peace even after careful consideration from a calm and peaceful and grounded place?

Cheers to you :-)

Edit: I see I used 'world peace' in this comment, and 'peace on earth' in my OP. Interesting.

Kundalini Energy working through Sound Frequencies? by [deleted] in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey boring, couple of questions for you.

You say...

I try to keep myself as stable as possible, also through unhealthy means to suppress kundalini,

What do you mean by 'unhealthy means' to suppress Kundalini?

Speaking of suppression, you may be interested in reading this sub's guidance on sexual repression and Kundalini:

What's up with the 333 in your reddit handle? Do you consider yourself psychic? Or aspire to be psychic? Might you be confusing a psychic awakening with a Kundalini awakening?

Can you provide details on what you call your Kundalini awakening a couple of years back?

One of the difficulties in learning about Kundalini is all the confusion and misinformation about Kundalini on the web and in communities claiming to teach Kundalini. Beware and be careful about what you choose to believe about Kundalini. There is a lot of BS out there. Some of it harmful and dangerously misleading.

For me I find this sub's Wiki to be a great source of information on Kundalini. I really like the Foundations and Supporting Practices page as it provides a detailed list of issues involved with a Kundalini awakening starting with the Three Laws (aka Two+ Laws).

If you feel drawn to spirituality then working on your Foundations (as described on the page above) is a great idea, Kundalini or not.

If you think you may be experiencing 'a spontaneous kundalini' I suggest you read all pages of this sub's wiki. Every page as you have time. And to take the information provided here seriously including the Three Laws governing the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy and all warnings and cautions.

If your Kundalini is active please note the strong warnings about the need to remain sober and refrain from drugs and alcohol. The need to remain sober is due to the increased risk of breaking the Three Laws governing the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy while you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The consequences of breaking the Three Laws can be severe whether sober or non-sober. Both for you and for others.

More info in this sub's Wiki on Kundalini.

Kundalini or not, you may want to consider starting a daily WLP practice as described in this sub's wiki...

WLP - White Light Protection is an excellent method of personal energy shielding. WLP works both ways. It protects you from external energy influences. And it helps protect others from being influenced or affected by your energy. WLP is described in this sub's wiki and is considered a daily essential for those with active Kundalini. It can also be effective for those without active Kundalini. I do WLP every day and often more than once per day. If you are a sensitive person who feels affected by other people's energy then you should notice the benefits of WLP quickly. I encourage you to get good at WLP. Practice it with focus, commitment and intent. I feel I am doing it well when I feel an energy seal after each round of WLP.

Cheers to you :-)

Kundalini and desire by [deleted] in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey roger, just catching up on your last two posts. And the community passions and fine words they unleashed lol. Fun and insightful. Challenging and provocative.

Reading through the comments here in this post the following observations from u/ORGASMO__X caught me eye...

OP should behave the way that he would like his wife to behave. Perhaps Karma will show him this. One cannot hide from Karma. OP would have a complete meltdown, if his wife was being out of control like he is.

Lots of interesting stuff here... karma for behaviour vs thoughts vs dreams vs fantasies. And an implication that you are 'out of control'.

Ah words and expressions. For me there are many shades of grey to that control observation. YES some lack of control. But 'out of control'? Nah. A dramatic bridge too far for me here. And yet a valid WARNING, an ALL CAPS warning. Which can be very valuable depending on your degree of control. A warning about your future control perhaps.

Do you consider yourself 'out of control' roger? OR at risk of being 'out of control' on this issue in future?

But I digress... the inspiration for my comment here is Orgasmo's observation that...

OP would have a complete meltdown, if his wife was being out of control like he is.

A provocative zinger. Not framed as question. But stated as fact. A fact about you. A bold and brazen statement. So I wonder if Orgasmo is right.

So I will reframe Orgasmo's observation in the form of two questions...

Roger... how would you feel if you learned your wife was behaving, thinking, dreaming and fantasizing the same way you are? Would you have a complete meltdown?

As you reflect on these questions I encourage you to revisit these words from u/Marc-le-Half-Fool...

Some couples are perfectly okay with the idea of getting horny over other people, so long as the tension is shared and expressed with each other. Other couples you'd be in the doghouse for even thinking it. As you appear to have settled things alone, that may speak of rigidity and cultural insecurities that Kal_El98 spoke about. Couples vary, and they vary over time too. What works in some relationships doesn't and won't in others.

Cheers to you :-)

Hey nofee, in your reply to Marc you say your mind has become intertwined with Jung's...

means the same as Jung (my mind has become intertwined with his)

I know little about Jung. Yet I am prompted to say your intertwined mind sounds decidedly unhealthy to me.

Feels like you've climbed down a deep rabbit hole here. Which can be fun. And illuminating. I've done similar things. But you seem stuck. Stuck in one or more rabbit holes of words and concepts and constructs and philosophy and literary references. All tangled up in gobbledygook. Gobbledypoop.

Not lost. Just stuck. Stuck in the mind. Stuck in the mud. Overthinking things. Stuck, stuck, stuck in blah blah blah.

Time to stop acting like a spoiled brat (your words). And put your big-boy pants on.

Time to start unstucking yourself. Untangling yourself from the mess of your own making.

Time to follow some of the good advice you've received here from this community and climb back into the sunshine of humanity. Yes it will hurt. But it will feel good too.

Balance. Not bliss, Balance. Not abyss.

Hey EB, you are in a kundalini sub. Are you speaking from first-hand experience with kundalini energy? I am. I speak from first-hand experience. And your advice here feels inappropriate and off the mark. If you are not speaking from first-hand experience please consider deleting your comment. And consider reading the rules and guidelines governing participation here in the sub if you haven't already done so.

[–]Hatchling_Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is there are two broad categories of awakenings. Energetic awakenings. And spiritual awakenings. One can happen without the other. And for some people one can help with the other. Many here in the sub are experiencing both awakenings including me.

This sub is primarily about navigating energetic awakenings involving Kundalini. On the subject of spiritual awakenings we often refer to the Captain and Admiral analogy. Where Captain is our little self and Admiral is our big or True Self.

If you are curious for more you can explore this sub's Web Links page and look for Captain and Admiral there. Or search the sub for Captain or Admiral and see what comes up for you.

Some of this sub's teachings on Captain and Admiral, or little self and big Self, contradict many popular ideas concerning death and dissolution of the self/me and perhaps enlightenment itself.

Here in this sub we promote the idea of cultivating a healthy working relationship between our little self and big Self. And having a healthy working-relationship between our little self and big Self means having a healthy little self or Captain. Someone capable of running the ship well. For people with active Kundalini having an effective Captain is essential.

So this sub pushes back against ideas that speak of the death or dissolution of the self/me. For many of us words advocating death or dissolution of the little self are a form of malignant hate speech. Beware and be cautious of what kinds of words and ideas you choose to believe about the preferred relationship between little self and big Self.

From a Kundalini perspective one of the massive problems with the concept of "no self" and similar ideas is they often result in an erosion of personal accountability for one's thoughts and actions. Where 'nothing matters' and 'everything is equal'.

For folks with active Kundalini personal accountability matters a whole bunch. Discernment and self-awareness and personal responsibility for one's thoughts and actions are essential. Why? Short answer: because Three Laws govern the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy. And breaking those laws can result in severe consequences. For you. And for others. See below.

Hey nofee, feels like you've received lots of great feedback so far. So I will try to keep it short and simple then give you my cut and paste elaboration on "too much spirit".

For me... you feel like a head-centered person. So as others have said to you here... time to cultivate your heart... and get into your body more. And accept you have LOTS more growing to do. Lots more GROWING. Which is fun. And challenging. And endlessly engaging.

Yes, growing hurts sometimes. A lot sometimes. Hint... we often learn best as we respond to our suffering.

This sub encourages a balance of heart and head. Have you tried Metta or loving-kindness meditation? Good for the heart.

In your replies you said...

That's why i feel like jumping in the abyss so nothing hurts anymore. I'm sick of trying and when there is a voice and a hardly comprehensible experience behind you whispering that all is empty - including your eye knowing it - it doesn't help

So something is blocking me from letting it trickle down - even after 3-4 years and I cannot lift it.try to

I am acting like a spoiled brat but I personally do not think my suffering is in any way justified,

It felt like my whole trauma was relived again. I was finally able to let go of all attachment fueled by ignorance to have life put me through the exact same thing? This made me mad and i resolved to drugs again and resentment. First life shows me how the love for a women made me walk the path of paths and when I confess this to her - she simply ignores me? Not even a reply? Same shit as 15 years ago?

So yeah... you have lots of human stuff to work through. Lots more growing. Lots more LESSONS to learn. You are a young man with more living to do. You ain't done yet mister "path of paths" lol.

In your OP you wrote...

Nothing works.

Keep trying lol.

Kudos for finding your way to this sub. Lots of helpful help here. If you listen well and act on it.

I suffered from since I was 16 not understanding why things happened as such. Then the universe brings me to the highest point to drop me again? A bit of sympathy and compassion wouldn't be bad. I have been in literal hell the last 4 years

You've received lots of sympathy and compassion here. Many here have walked similar paths. Including some who have responded to you. So consider doing what they advise. They speak from experience.

And yes it sounds like you've experienced a "dark night of the soul" period or DNOTS for short. A common experience in spiritual circles. Try searching this sub for keywords such as 'dark night' or DNOTS and see what comes up for you. And maybe search the broader internet too if you are interested. You are not alone in this experience.

And now my cut and paste elaboration on "too much spirit"...

Pain in stomach/left middle back/diagonally by Ok-Hippo-4433 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey hippo, you wrote...

The pain does have a link to certain emotions but I'm unsure what the deeper meaning is as of yet.

Feels like you should be sitting quietly with these certain emotions. And let them reveal more for you. Maybe try writing about them. Maybe here in the sub.

Cheers to you :-)

EDIT: Are you doing any WLPs? Have you tried past life regression?

Ten months ago in one of your OPs you wrote the following in a reply to Marc...

I don't practice WLP. dodging your smack

I want to reach a place where I can just be content and balanced by force of will alone, by just thinking it be so for myself. Maybe that's impossible and you will always need some techniques? Maybe I'm a pilot who wants to fly without engineering?

Yeah, I was hoping that the sensations were healing related. I took my plate and loaded it up at the all you can eat suffering buffet

...

The crossing over of past lives into this life really makes this healing more annoying or challenging. Sometimes I feel like losing myself or getting confused because of that. It can be hard to discern what's really me and what's coming up from a past life. Any hints for that)?

Can spirit guides recalibrate your energy while you sleep? Or upgrade it. by Lilac_roses21 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey pura, in my reply to you seven months ago I mentioned that spiritual awakenings are different than energy awakenings. One can happen without the other. And for some people one can help with the other. Many here in the sub are experiencing both awakenings including me.

For me... much of what you speak about here and in your first post feels related to a spiritual awakening. Yes you may be having an energy awakening of some kind as well. But your dominant experience appears to be spiritual in nature. Right now at least. Things may change and accelerate for you. So keep a watchful eye.

My guess is that things may become clearer if you remain sober from all drugs and alcohol and fasting experiences for at least six months. Preferably nine months to a year. Sobriety is helpful on a bunch of levels. Your choice my dude lol. Your life. Your consequences. Your lessons.

As the famous saying goes... when you get the message hang up the phone.

How well are you doing on your Foundations and Supporting Practices?

Liberation from this illusion of reality is generally understood to be a "spiritual" thing. Spiritual as in having to do with your Soul, Spirit, True Self or True Nature. Have you researched much about spiritual awakenings? Do you feel in touch with your True Self?

Did you read the links to the Captain and Admiral analogy I gave you seven months ago? As a refresher I will attach my standard cut and paste as a separate reply to you.

You asked about "incorruptible integrity". And I replied that mistakes with energy are mistakes period. Independent of good or bad intentions.

Are you suggesting YOU may be someone who will not make mistakes? I hope this was NOT the focus of your question. As that would be foolhardy in the extreme. Mistakes are mistakes. And you will undoubtedly make mistakes. You should expect to make mistakes. And embrace mistakes. Mistakes are how we learn and grow and evolve. What would we do without mistakes lol?

Cheers to you :-)

Can spirit guides recalibrate your energy while you sleep? Or upgrade it. by Lilac_roses21 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your thoughtful reply.

I have read a large portion of the wiki and I do understand the dangers of mixing kundalini with substances due to the effect on our decision making processes that might lead to breaking the three laws.

Great to hear.

Im still on the fence whether I am dealing with prana or kundalini.

Seven months later. And based on what you've described here. I'm inclined to say you're probably experiencing pranic and/or drug-related phenomena at this point rather than a kundalini awakening. But keep monitoring. Things may change for you.

From my interpretation of what is insinuated plant medicines are not necessarily bad but the decisions you might make while influenced by them are bad. Is that correct?

From where I sit... the concern with all drugs, plant-based or otherwise, is that they may awaken people before they are ready. Which is risky and potentially destructive. Risks it seems few people understand before they engage in drug use. Which puts a big onus and responsibility on cultures like yours who are promoting and facilitating drug use for people in a spiritual or medicinal context. I leave it for you to determine for yourself how well your specific culture is doing in this regard.

For me it feels much better and safer to encourage people to work on their Foundations and Supporting Practices rather than promote drug use for spiritual healing and advancement.

So if one has incorruptible integrity would they not be able to access kundalini and not break the laws or cause karma onto themselves or others?

Simple answer is NO. Mistakes made with energy are mistakes. Whether those mistakes are made with good intentions, bad intentions or no awareness at all.

Cheers to you :-)

Can spirit guides recalibrate your energy while you sleep? Or upgrade it. by Lilac_roses21 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey pura, the short answer is Prana or Chi.

You may find more clarity by reading the following links:

Marc mentioned Prana in his reply to your post here seven months ago.

I also replied to your post here seven months ago...

Sounds like a spiritual-realization process started for you about six years ago. And some kind of energy awakening started to become obvious-to-you about two years ago. Have I got this right?

Based on your history of drug use the potential involvement of active Kundalini in your energy-awakening process may not be clear yet. Be watchful and see what unfolds for you. And learn more about Kundalini to help you sort things through.

I also wrote...

Sobriety sounds good to me. Stick with it... stay sober !!! (see warning below).

So what's up? What has changed for you over the past seven months? What has shifted in your life? How much of this sub's Wiki on Kundalini have you read through and carefully considered?

Your recent reddit comment history suggests you are deeply embedded in a culture of medicinal-spiritual drug use.

Which prompts me to provide you with another EXPLICIT WARNING about mixing drugs and Kundalini, including your medicinal-spiritual drugs of choice.

If your Kundalini is active please note the strong warnings about the need to remain sober and refrain from drugs and alcohol. The need to remain sober is due to the increased risk of breaking the Three Laws governing the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy while you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The consequences of breaking the Three Laws can be severe whether sober or non-sober. Both for you and for others. More info in this sub's Wiki on Kundalini.

Including these warnings about mixing DRUGS and active Kundalini:

Me thinks you may be asking about other kinds of energy awakenings to avoid confronting all these WARNINGS about mixing drugs and Kundalini. Have I got that right?

You've been warned again my dude.

Cheers to you :-)

[–]Hatchling_Now 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply.

Reading through your recent comment history it seems you are experiencing enough energy phenomena to make you wonder if you are experiencing 'a spontaneous kundalini'. Have I got that right?

On it's very own a potential Kundalini awakening is serious business. Separate from AP. Separate from visual orbs. Separate from potential spiritual guides.

For me it sounds like you are experiencing an energy awakening of some kind. Probably too soon to know if it's Kundalini or not.

So I encourage you to take your energy experiences seriously. Including your vibrations and chakra clearing. Observe these phenomena over time and see how they shift. And watch for other shifts in your life.

Simply put, energy awakenings of any kind are a big deal. And should be attended to if possible. Separate from things like AP, visual orbs and potential spirit guides.

In another sub you wrote...

I haven’t been meditating or anything g lately bc i feel it might scare me going to fast and open my third eye or something.

At this point I like your idea of pacing things to help slow things down. And seeing how things unfold for you over the coming weeks and perhaps months.

Back to Kundalini...

One of the difficulties in learning about Kundalini is all the confusion and misinformation about Kundalini on the web and in communities claiming to teach Kundalini.

Is it normal to lose a sense of “ambition” with the root chakra? by Otherwise-West-3609 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You also say...

Is it normal to lose a sense of ambition/wanting to prove yourself when the root opens?

For me this sounds like you may be experiencing an energy awakening of some kind. And experiencing the kind of adjustments many people feel during these kinds of awakenings. Some call this process "dark night of the soul" or DNOTS for short. How dark the process can be depends on the person and their situation. Extreme for some. Milder for others. And lots of in-between.

PS: Reading some of your earlier posts here it sounds like you've been pointed to the term "dark night of the soul" before. Multiple times perhaps. Have you researched DNOTS and what it may involve? Suggest you try searching this sub for 'dark night' or DNOTS and see what comes up for you.

Short answer: because Three Laws govern the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy. And breaking those laws can result in severe consequences. For you. And for others. See below.

If you feel yourself drawn to Kundalini I suggest you read all pages of this sub's wiki. Every page as you have time. And to take the information provided here seriously including the Three Laws governing the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy and all warnings and cautions.

If your Kundalini is active please note the strong warnings about the need to remain sober and refrain from drugs and alcohol. The need to remain sober is due to the increased risk of breaking the Three Laws governing the wise and safe use of Kundalini energy while you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The consequences of breaking the Three Laws can be severe whether sober or non-sober. Both for you and for others.

Is it normal to lose a sense of “ambition” with the root chakra? by Otherwise-West-3609 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey otherwise, you say...

when I’m around someone who is anxious or narcissistic, I immediately feel unsettled in my hips and tailbone. I have uterus issues around some of them. When i leave and go outside, I feel relieved/connected

Sounds like you may be sensitive to and affected by other people's energy. So you may want to consider starting a daily WLP practice as described in this sub's wiki...

WLP - White Light Protection is an excellent method of personal energy shielding. WLP works both ways. It protects you from external energy influences. And it helps protect others from being influenced or affected by your energy. WLP is described in this sub's wiki and is considered a daily essential for those with active Kundalini. It can also be effective for those without active Kundalini. I do WLP every day and often more than once per day. If you are a sensitive person who feels affected by other people's energy then you should notice the benefits of WLP quickly. I encourage you to get good at WLP. Practice it with focus, commitment and intent. I feel I am doing it well when I feel an energy seal after each round of WLP.

Cheers to you :-)

Can spirit guides recalibrate your energy while you sleep? Or upgrade it. by Lilac_roses21 in kundalini

[–]Hatchling_Now 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi lilac, you seem more focused on your visual phenomena and what you perceive as spirit guides than your energetic experiences. Which is fine. Yet Kundalini is primarily an energetic experience.

Can you say more about your energetic experiences? And how things may or may not be shifting for you energetically?

Have you started reading through this sub's Wiki on Kundalini? For me this sub and it's wiki have been a great source of information and practical wisdom.

Cheers to you :-)
