(Previous) PM practice: Kriya yoga/meditation - 15 minutes /5 minutes.
Kriya Yoga
Brief study of "Meditation Pictorial" a short reading of "Sleep Paralysis".
AM Practice:
Kriya Yoga session for 70 minutes, including 10 minutes of warm up; followed by an attempt to meditate for 30 minutes.
I did not have enough rest so the session was spacey and disjointed, but as it was very early I had time to get it done to satisfaction.
Kundalini has been noted since a few days to manifest in different ways.
Even when no colored background is visible in the subtle body, kundalini effect might be a speckled dark background and a physical force.
When backward bending pose was done after extensive breaths and locks applied the palms and soles of the feet felt pricked by a few needles instead of tingling sensations.
Realization: if apanic energy/ negative energy accumulates in my body in just a moment it takes extended sessions to eliminate the same. The system in that sense is a hoarder, and any so diagnosed person has a very small chance of succeeding in the behavioral modification therapy, and rid of unnecessary and unwanted elements in an effective timely manner.
Speculation: so long as the system is infused with prana kundalini is pressed to pay attention, and given the proper impetus it should move provided there are no obstructions impeding its spur into action.
Meditation:
Finer naad was very faint and for the first few minutes I was being pulled back and forth between that and my generalized naad.
Finer naad was being lost any time the mind drifted. I eventually stayed in generalized naad, at the back of it.
During meditation when the body is properly charged, it has seemed that naad as the generalized naad was one with all the tingling sensation points throughout the body. All the points produce their own micro sounds. And I don't feel my head area, only my limbs, particularly my feet for being in half lotus.
Goals/Objectives are observed.
Book Reading consisted of the "Yoga Sutras".
‘Stop the influence of the Self by the mento-emotional energy, whether such energy is shallow or deep, positive or negative; so as to redirect the Self inward, by systematic retraction of the senses’.
I do not have any yogin qualities in the least degree of these standards, but only by encouragements or my own ignorance.
Subtle Dimension Interactions:
:-) ... I am in a savanna type of environment...I am speaking with a young Native Indian male...he tells me his name which was long and also the name of a friend we have in common. He was telling about how much his people have been through and he himself... indeed he looked as though he had a rough life...there is safari type of truck with stuff loaded on top of it...
:-) ... I am in a sort of outdoor environment that seems to also be a school. I speak to a "wise man", he let me make a copy of some information he had in a bag. My current supervisor was there. Some young guys who are students volunteer to make copies of the content for me. In addition to paper/ documents there are black large stones that are linked to each other with a thread through a hole in them. Other areas of the bag that were unsuspected opened and we find 4 balls that we were not able to identify apart from their spongy texture, and pink/green colors.

MiBeloved's Response:
This is the indication of the nadis in that part of the body are being penetrated by the infused energy. Either the tingling sensation or the needle pricks are the indication of that. Student yogi should then focus there and do the rapid breathing maintaining that focus there for a while. Repeat that focus until you feel that after some weeks or so of practice, that area of the subtle body is cleared of pollution and is no longer holding polluted energy.

MiBeloved's Response:
This is correct but the movement of kundalini will not always result in the preferred sensations. Student may become stereotyped minded such that he or she is looking for a specific type of sensation to label as the aroused kundalini. This is wrong. Student should not try to second guess how that sensation will feel but should be on the look out for any type of sensation which arises during the practice.
Students who become addicted to pleasure sensation of aroused kundalini, are depriving themselves of further advancement because their expectation of wanting these pleasures stunt their practice development.

A conclusion: needle pricks or tingling sensations that indicate positively infused nadis are just like manifestations of kundalini energy because they are rooted in bhastrika breath infusion. However, the two are different phenomena?
MiBeloved 5 years ago
They are the same phenomena but sensed in a different way from different levels of perceptions. It is the same infused energy but its intensity varies and its purifying power also varies according to the degree of efficiency of the particular practice sessions.

Due to lack of advancement I am confused as to the identical natures, similarities or differences between nadis and kundalini or other manifestations of kundalini energy.
I am aware that experiencing both the nadis and other manifestations of kundalini energy is due to heightened perception as a result of infused energy and subsequent purification.
But so is the case with the perception(s) of naad.
Then, would other types of subtle perception be reliant on kundalini, and intense purification?

Your lesson at this point is to make notations of what happened, not to figure it all or sort it. You cannot do this at this stage because of the learning level you are on. It cannot all make sense now and you cannot sort it now.
When the mind forces you to go down the track of making sense of everything ignore that and invest more in reading the Gita and similar books, and also in just practicing more.
Do not allow the mind to manhandle you like this.
