AM Practice:
Back pain intensified, plus pain in the neck. Yoga routine couldn't be followed.
More breathing afforded in postures that allowed for stomach burning satisfactorily.
Body did not feel charged. However when kundalini was solicited in sea horse stanze and kneeling on, a bright orange cloud presented at the left side for about 3 seconds.
After brief meditation, during meal an energy/charge was felt and a few minutes later, two very bright flashes of lights such as crescent moons at the sides of the both eyes were seen about 5 seconds apart.
I am focusing on my broader goal of developing internally;
And its objectives, in time range order of:
- Learning to come down into the kneeling position after soliciting kundalini without loosing pressure through locks valves,
- Increasing naad connection,
- Focusing on more concentration during practice.
- Improving dream realm extensions.
For more concentration during practice:
I now use earplugs during bhastrika. It could be similar to hearing the factory from inside and becoming aware of all the machines versus hearing the factory from outside. I find it worth getting used to.
For more concentration during meditation:
I am taking it more seriously as per Michael’s example to take notes on paper.
My mind is naturally trained to help me remember stuff, and it is more successful in its job than I give it credit. So long as it is not assured that the information is well memorized or properly stored in its appropriate compartment it will keep working on it; that gets in the way of focusing and remaining in the now. Once any information is put on paper there is reassurance and the mind is peaceful.
I experience similar situation with emotions, feelings and ideas.
Naad was easily tuned to and was loud enough during meditation. It was also listened to before sleep and upon waking after dream remembrance pause.
Dream recall contained two instances that will be detailed in dream journal:
- Was training on a government job; I have impressions about car(s)...
I was at a job training yesterday. Parking was an issue.
- I was living with my brothers in an apartment. I was concerned about groceries for the household...
I am still writing on that family matter and it brings a lot of issues on the surface.
I have no context for the next part however. Since I have not watched this celebrity's show in years.
From the window of that apartment came passing (of all people) Oprah Winfrey on the street on the other side of the street. She had gained a lot of weight. I was puzzled about why she was so simple. She crossed the street and I followed her with my eyes expecting to see a huge crowd gathering around any second, but lost track.
I have been hoping to reach out for the stars in my dreams, but not her kind. Talking about being specific in one's prayers.
Reading was not managed.

This is more in line with how a student-yogi should keep track of daily practice, deal subtle dealings and then consider the value of these experiences.
I encourage you to continue.

Gurubai Surya!
You rock.
Oprah Winfrey? Perhaps she was Durga in disguise.

Yes Dear Alfredo,
I rock;
That rock rolling upwards and downwards, by the wayside of my scrambled and non-sensed existence;
Used and abused by the agents of the Illusory Energy.
When suddenly noticed A Most Merciful Being, beyond the shadow of a doubt a Divine Agent.
So I am pointed in the right direction to keep it going, and fostered to move on upwards.
That One chimes this rock!
