due to kundalini working its way through deformations, it doesn’t make sense to
“reduce” the fire. Instead as these blockages arise we should be aiding the fire in
its work “through” the miasmas. For example if angst (choking in the narrows) is
occurring in the throat, then toning, mantra, singing and humming greatly helps
to relieve the pain and pressure. Clarifying one’s truth and relationships should be
done at this time. Writing poems from each of the charkas might help the flow of
energy through the body. Meditation should be shifted from the third eye to the
crown chakra. Gestalt and all forms of artistic expression will help the throat clear.
Spontaneous music, drumming and dance are especially helpful in clearing the
throat chakra.
And as with any kundalini difficulty, the digestive system should be thoroughly
cleansed whenever an obstinate symptom arises. A juice fast of moderate duration
is an ideal first line of approach in dealing with any miasma that is up for us.
Fasting will generally increase metamorphosis and speed evolution; but do not
water fast during kundalini for the liver needs all the glutathione it can get. There
are solutions to every problem whether it be excessive sex energy, headaches, heat,
confusion, radical heart pressure, pain or numbness in the tissues.
Generally the line of approach for difficulties should go something like this:
- Inquire internally as to the nature of the problem
- Stop the bad habits (samskaras)
- Detoxification and juice fasting
- Increase energy and breathing
- Calm and soothe energy, toning, yoga, meditation
- Strengthen tissues nutritionally
- Exercise tissues physically (O2)
- Use light, sound, touch, vibration, nature and inquiry-meditation
- Focus, concentrate, refine, strengthen use of the area
- Integrate the part more fully into the whole
We don’t discard the lower as we ascend Maslow’s pyramid, as we ascend there
is a “refinement” of the lower levels. The self-actualized body is different than
a pupal body. One needs less food, of a higher quality after metamorphosis has
progressed. Also consider that sex, relationships, work, nature appreciation, child
rearing, dharma, muse and everything is refined and changes as we move up the
pyramid. It’s a matter of “quality” not quantity. The quality or “depth” of our
world changes as we ascend.
If the resistant egos addictive-substance suppression of the liver is lifted, the
liver awakens to its full function. Then the right side of the body and the right-
brain comes out its subservience and latency. Normally in this culture our liver
and right-brain are greatly repressed in order that we may avoid our ESP, truth,
creativity, emotion and intuition. The lifting of this repression would be tangibly
felt as energy-bliss-awareness rising through the right side of the body. A sign that
this transformation is occurring would be the radical relaxation of the right neck
and shoulder, with obvious changes to the personality and adaptive functioning
including increased emotion and psychic abilities.
