listen no offence intended here...but I find kundalini bliss...to be so, so impersonal and unsexy
maybe?..equally so, to the pentecostals, who get a similar awakening in their chakras?
oh...I am a believer...in the Biblical Creation...and Him
I tell you why..because I have found His World to be the most magnificently rapturous and sexy
I know there is nothing more blissful...than for a female to rule her male with love...as his inside
kindly

Well, it is interesting that you immediately connected Kundalini with sex. I have been married for 30+ years and kundalini energy is a development of only the last couple. Like any spiritual experience Kundalini manifests in many different ways and is entirely subjective to the consciousness of the one having that experience.
While my wife and I enjoy a healthy sex life, that has not been the focus of this energy for me. I nearly lost my mind and almost drove to the nearest psych ward as this came into my life. However I knew it for what it was, and somehow got on top of it.
This energy demanded expression in me. I learned to dance after a lifetime of being too embarrassed to do so, and I went back to studying music and guitar. I wrote a book about my experience and my path to personal improvement and the steps I took to find myself.
Furthermore I do not consider myself enlightened, but I am a student on the path. The path to what I still have yet to discover, but it has been an interesting one nonetheless. Yours and the other poster above have given me much food for thought as to the end game.
I believe we are here to experience and to witness and to learn. Learn what? This I do not know, so I let my soul guide me in that respect. It has led me down a very interesting path with many incredible teachers. Somehow I feel I am on the path that I am supposed to be on, and if it is selfish, then it is benefitting everyone around me by osmosis, as this light has illuminated a lot of dark places since I found it in myself.
Rather than selfish, I strive to share it with others and help them find their own path. I do this by actively participating in energy and soul healing. We all spend a certain amount of effort maintaining ourselves and our own spirit. We have to in order to go on. This is not selfish.
To the poster that said that Kundalini bliss is so unsexy, well in response to that I say maybe you are looking for the wrong direction. It has very little to do with sex if that is not your goal in life. If it was this energy might be a game changer for sure, but that is not my goal. My wife and I have a love that transcends physical bounds and lifetimes.
While this thread has been an interesting take on all of it, I feel you are assuming a lot about others who may have a very different experience than your own and in trying to express your opinion, you have instead failed to give one, at least from my own perceptions. Maybe my perceptions are skewed, and I very much apologize if I sound disrespectful and I hope I do not. My experience has been very different from your own.
Just curious if entheogens were a part of your experience with these deities? You don't have to answer that in open chat, pm will work. Peace...

Some initial thoughts - I feel that the premise being painted is far too simplistic to truly describe the nature of the mind-body duality that you refer to as a physical/ethereal duality. We do not literally "choose" our own reality - according to all the studies which supply the foundation for that specific line of reasoning, conscious observation does induce a wave-state collapse in said observed system. In effect, whatever we observe tends to be fundamentally altered by the act of observation.
But that is quite different from your premise that our conscious beliefs alter the universe according to our own wishes/beliefs/energetic emanations. Maybe that's the case but... we don't yet have experimental data which goes that far(that i'm aware of anyway).
Another thing - if the universe is so subjective that any individual can literally shape the universe according to his/her beliefs (Martha believes in a spiritual dimension, therefore it is so - while Esteban believes there is no spiritual dimension, therefore that is so) - then objective reality is an illusion and... Well, that would be a field day for existential philosophers. Like me. It would utterly eliminate the fundamental nature of "Cause and Effect" much as backwards time-travel would. Maybe that's so, but as of yet there's no good reason to subscribe to such a bleak and meaningless philosophy.
Ah yes, one last thing - the soul is androgynous, not female.
Cheers, and I will certainly keep reading. Those were just initial(albeit critical) thoughts and I hope I didn't come across as negative. Good work!

For now men rule this world, it's MEN who have messed it all up, wheres the bitching about that ? Who is SHE? You act like you know her? Spill the beans if you know so much, quit beating around the bush Mr know it all, you sound like a wounded lover.... Get over it
