Excellent as always. 'Kundalini' is a sacred concept and is often misinterpreted and misunderstood because of the work of many pseudo-yogis. My own understanding of it is superficial but I do know what it is not. Dr. Svoboda's clarity of thought and impeccable mastery over words could only come after an absolute understanding of the subject matter and as a result of years of dedicated and disciplined Sadhana. The amount of knowledge he can impart in these 5ish minutes is astonishing! Looking forward to more of these videos. :)

This is the most positive and the most important point you've mentioned :) To allow the Supreme Power to develop the 'I' in me. It really grants us more than what we want. I have experienced it and I need to resume doing Kundalini Awakening . Thank you so much Sir :)

I have been feeling it this way for a few month now. There is no particular Me inside this body at any particular point really. All that resides within, is Maa. Whenever there is any dis- ease felt, I tell my mind, that Maa is inside there, taking charge of the body, so instead of worrying about the trouble, I should keep my focus on my sadhana and let Maa do whatever she needs to do with the dis-ease. All I do is, identify my mistake in lifestyle and my desire that led to it and try not to repeat. Is it similar to identifying with Kundalini and letting it act on its own?🙏

@DrRobertSvoboda 2 жыл бұрын

It is similar, but only partly so. There may be no particular 'You' inside your body at any particular point, but at the point that you are telling your mind that Maa is inside you, then at that point there is a 'you' telling that to your mind. The less that 'you' are there the more Kundalini can act, but all distinctions that exist within are reflections of the ongoing process of the purifying of the ego into Kundalini.

There is no one else in the whole world to explain Kundalini "as is" except you. You, Vimalananda and Aghora have caused changes in my life that are both good and bad, as I perceive them. But the end result is good. I am sure that's what it is going to result into, though I live the way it goes for now. Thank you very much for choosing this medium and carrying the message forward. Please increase the sound by about 10 deciBels or more. Not your voice but in the video. This is sufficient, while "Prana" video wasn't. I hear out of my laptop. So, increasing the volume will be great. Thank you once again.

Hmm. Enter center, the middle. When in middle, breath the vibration breathing. Feel the inner heat grow. Make sure the middle is straight all the way down. Breath deep. When very strong, then you can rejuvenate. Multiply and accumulate the lifeforce. Which in turn empowers everything you were already doing. Enjoy the bliss that washes away emotional inclination, and the sweet smells, among other things. I dont know about kundalini, but when the breath, the water, and the fire are mixed. You get a red body and multiplied life.

I am guessing that a conch shell ring on the index finger would help to purify an individuals intentions. If so, interesting upaya that. I wonder does it need a mantra, empowerment or cleaning up of the ring for efficacy.

QUESTION: So fully awakened Kundalini equals Mahasamadhi in some sort? In spiritually evolved persons, the reason that some of them achieved "Sel-Realization" and die shortly, as in the case of Ramakrishna, does it mean that they achieved fully awakened Kundalini so they left the Earth plane earlier than some people? Or is it just related to a Karmic mechanism?

I have been practicing for a good amount of my 30+ year old lifetime and in my practices have been drawn to the more fringe aspects of tantra. That being said, even with that experience just messing with the kundalini practice seems like playing with fire to me. Some people are drawn to certain practices and it works for them, for instance Jordan Peterson has openly said he practices kundalini yoga but I am not playing with that. For me I would have to have someone to give me hard direction into it but that may just also be some of the accumulated information I have come across deterring me from. Though I find that for the most part doubtful.

Ever since my first experience in July of 2016,along with other symptoms,I have a constant sensation of some one /something kissing my lips,could this be the shakti arisen in my organism which Acharya Vimalanada,points out in his discourses? Can you please clarify. Does full blown awakening imply that there won't be further terrestrial incarnations. Thank you

does spontaneous awakenings coincide with death of a loved one, extreme illness, divorce etc. within 5 months of my symptoms, my father passed away, I have read about authors on the subject who have gone through similar life changing events, please share your thoughts, thank you

Ross while a life-changing event may change your "assemblage point" & seriously alter how you "see" the world & release a bunch of pent-up energy, that big shift may not however actually cause Kundalini to awaken

That’s what yoga/meditation and Chinese chi-gung is for. The more you relax, the more your energy will flow. The more your energy flows, the more your “chakras” (energy centers) will open up and, through your aura, you will connect more energetically with the external world. When this connection hits a metaphorical “boiling point,” you may be like me, where suddenly I felt energy start in my feet, move up my body toward my head, and end with a swirling feeling in the center of my forehead (3rd eye). The whole process took about 30 minutes and it felt like I had a full night’s sleep. Funny thing is, while I had been doing chi-gung (energy work) for a few years, I’d never heard of “kundalini” until years later when I actually trained to be a kundalini yoga instructor. I simply laid down on my back, deeply relaxed and “let go” and then it happened. After that, I was able to experience it many more times. It seemed that, the more tired I was, the easier it was to raise kundalini energy. However, that was many years ago and I haven’t experienced it for a long time. I will say, that, in my opinion, kundalini raising feels like the first stages of astral travel - that simultaneous up-and-down vibration feeling like you’re a rocket about to take off. Hope that helps! Maybe by now you have already experienced it in your own way😉

I must say I just listed to the beginning - and know this is an old post - but he says at the beginning that the reason people pay attention to kundalini is because it is very exciting - that’s ridiculous. He doesn’t know what he is talking about apparently. It is because people are spontaneously experiencing high energy loads and they have to deal with it. And just doing some passive Buddhist meditation technique won’t help.
