or a split second, an image appeared of a body of a blindfolded person bound by wrists and ankles traveling up in a freight elevator.

Mi~Beloved’s Remark:

So much for those yogis whose minds are saturated with images from big cities where trains and elevators abound, going up and down all day, all night long.

A terrible point of reference for the mind as it tries to make head or tail of a transcendental experience.

Anyway, this is a wonderful experience. It is interesting how the rise of kundalini caused the sheering away of this yogi from his identity reference so that he was lost for a time and did not know where or even who he was. It is also interesting how the settling of kundalini caused him to be reconnected to his identity reference.

How does that happen? Why is kundalini in such position in the psyche to cause a person, even a yogi, to be sheered or cut off from his identity reference? Can that be fixed?

This was a wonderful experience and considering this yogi was not born in India and only did this practice for about 9 years + now, this is a hallmark for him and for the process of breath infusion using bhastrika/kapalabhati pranayama.

It is wonderful how kundalini assumed control of the body and put it into lotus posture without any directive from the iSelf, the observing person. How important is the iSelf in the upkeep of the body?
