A Crosscultural Practical Perspective On Symptoms Of Spiritual Awakening

Thirty two years back I began my journey, a dramatic and fascinating inner and outer journey into the process that unfolds that strong internal spiritual energy is ignited and also the experience of depression and spiritual awakening.
 

It absolutely was my great good fortune to receive shaktipat initiation the awakening spiritual from Swami Muktananda who had been the realized Master of the Siddha Yoga lineage then. I say it was my great good fortune because, in this tradition is the initiation given, but the crucial teachings for understanding the awakening and the spiritual experiences and process that unfolds as an effect are openly and freely given. I shortly realized, through my own, personal inner experience and the experiences of others around me who had received shaktipat, that this internal energy that was divine not only has got the power to give the greatest of mystical experiences to one, but can also be a supreme healer. In her goal to take the seeker to the realization of oneness she must help our inner hindrances to be removed by us in the religious, mental, emotional, psychic and physical degrees. Much like any development and curing process, being faced with challenges, constraints, negative emotions, negative inclinations and previous difficult encounters and unresolved dilemmas, might be sometimes frightening and difficult.
 

When combined with extreme, impulsive experiences of energy going in ways that an individual has no prior training, knowledge or understanding of, it can be overwhelming, leading the person to find help from clergy, religious advisers, mental health professionals and holistic practitioners-many of whom are lacking in the necessary expertise as well as knowledge to supply decent support, and some of whom may truly misdiagnose the person 's experience, labeling it pathological. Consequently it's very important that anyone providing support to individuals with awakened kundalini have knowledge and experience of the kundalini procedure across spiritual traditions.
 

Dynamic Paradigms Across Traditions
 

There are several names for the kundalini across spiritual traditions. Experiential paradigms emerge describing movement and the awakening of this transforming inner power, when one investigates the mystical texts, poetry and anecdotal content of a variety of traditions. The most articulated system is the Chakra/Nadi system that appears in Yoga, Tibetan Buddhism and Sufism. In this system the spiritual awakening experience and moves up through sushumna or the central channel, piercing the chakras or energy centres in the subtle, energy body. In the act of going through the chakras the kundalini releases a number of mental, physical, psychological, psychic and religious experiences. They are basically the same, although across the Yoga, Tibetan Buddhist and Sufi traditions the words may differ in describing the paradigm.
 

In one of them he's revealed the seven seals and also the seven spirits of God. Each seal signifies a level of consciousness or revelation. In Kabbalah, the mystical path of Judaism, there's an elaborate system of the sefiroth and the Tree of Life. Mention is also made of the 7 heavens along with the Hebrew letters or sounds used to attain them. In the Native American tradition, vibrational centers that run across the axis or spinal column are described by the Hopi Creation Story. These five centers are near the very top of the head, at the heart, the throat, just below the very best of the head and under the navel -a system rather similar to the chakra system. A berger woman seated on an uncoiling serpent is, shown by a clay artifact discovered by archeologists in the knolls of the primeval Cahokian tribes that lived along the Mississsippi River in what's now the state of Illinois. The serpent rises like a vine up the center of her back which are put a number of gourds. The uncoiling serpent is, in the traditions of Yoga, a sign of the spiritual awakening, or serpent power.
