Kundalini Discussion

Yesterday, in the States, we spoke about what we do when we can't sleep. I spoke about my sleep breathing routine, which sometimes leads to shivers going up and down my body. I also can enter into a trance like state, where I hear voices talking to me, have vivid dreams and actually do get some rest. Amazingly, my Apple watch once recorded one of these events.

As you can see, the last 3 hours of "Sleep" was somekind of mismash which had REM/Core/Deep Sleep, all mixed together. I'll have to ask Apple what this is!!

I have heard how people worry about how to reach other people who are not impacted by Shakti directly. I read an obscure book decades ago which gave me some perspective. It was written by Yogananda's Guru, Shri Yukteswar. He talks about the ages of Brahma. We are currently in an age where man cannot perceive anything but "gross material creation". So I guess that is why we are here!

The heart is like a being which is asleep and receiving a sharp blow it awakens. Also the heart is like a stone and the fire which is hidden within it can only he brought to life when it is struck by a hard material. Then the fire appears. So it is with the heart. The fire which is life, love and feeling and which is the most sacred thing in us, is hidden in the heart as the fire in the stone. When it is struck with force, the fire appears. That is why we receive great blows in life.
