Your Previous Kundalini Experiences

It is believed that during our childhood we are able to experience 1909 Philadelphia Caramel flow of Kundalini energy easily as Universal monsters figures life force energy flows more spontaneously during childhood. If you remember the intense moments of your childhood, whether during play, wrestling with a friend, reading comics or living in moment, you will understand what I am talking about. This also means that Kundalini experience is not something alien to you as you have already experienced it as a child.

As you will progress through your meditative practice these moments of childhood experience will come back to you in flashes. During human growth period through adolescence your Kundalini energy is directed towards nurturing and guiding your growth. Now as an adult your Kundalini experience will be more subtle and directed towards your spiritual growth.

Even during adulthood people have had experiences of Kundalini surges. It could happen playing a sport, during sexual intercourse, watching something intense and some people feel it by using artificial stimulants like alcohol or drugs. Practicing Iron Man movie Yoga is another method to induce a Kundalini rush.

With so many diverse ways to experience Kundalini surge of power, pleasure, bliss, and self realization, you can experiment with your everyday routine and find your own zone for such an intense experience. The biggest road block with most people in modern society is total focus of the mind on the material aspects of life with little or no attention paid to our spiritual nature.

When you consciously learn and practice Kundalini meditation you are just speeding up the natural process of spiritual awakening. By focusing and nurturing the inner self we are strengthening our connection with ourselves and the divine spark which every one possesses. The gradual process leads to ultimate liberation and everlasting joy.

We, as humans, have the intellect and the choice to tap into this energy and develop it to its full potential. We have the potential to develop our neurological system to receive unlimited energy flow by enhancing our deeper levels of consciousness which are beyond the physical survival instincts. I will discuss and give you an introduction to the seven energy chakras (centers) in the next write-up. Meanwhile I would suggest that you continue with the practice of breath meditation as told earlier by me.

I am a deeply involved in my spiritual practice as it gives a complete sense of fulfillment to my life and my being. This is just a small attempt to share what I have learned with other who might be keen to explore this joyous path to liberation of mind and well being.
