  1. Nondual realization is the full awakening of chit kundalini. What people usually refer to as “kundalini” is Prana kundalini. It can also lead awakening of chit kundalini, but not always.
  2. Yeah, binary logic is very reassuring. Imagine not having the ground to push off of. The opposite is a very natural, instinctive option for us. Us vs. Them, in-group vs. out-group, Blue vs. Red, all symptoms of a mental disease that get exacerbated every time we resort to this kind of mentation.
  3. I think the roots are a bit deeper @idiot_stimpy most likely, these people have unresolved trauma from being bullied or feeling unsafe, and that's why they latch on to their practice. And that's why they have such juvenile reactions when their belief systems are threatened.
  4. There is an interesting phenomenon where people react in an immature manner to someone who they disagree with. I was reading a post on FB of a relatively famous IMA/Neigong teacher who said he regularly gets death threats toward himself and his family simply because he teaches something that his detractors don't agree with. Mostly, the culprits are martial artists (or that's the sense i got from the post). I wonder if this is a case of arrested development of the intellect/psyche of these so-called martial artists (many are probably middle-aged or older)? Maybe they have unresolved trauma from their formative years that has prevented them from developing wisdom and kindness towards others. I can understand not agreeing with someone, but to threaten them with death and violence because of said disagreement is juvenile (if not criminal).
  5. Alien encounters during dream

    The intellect doesn’t like randomness. It will always try to create a “story” in attempt to make sense of whatever it encounters. That’s why we look for cause, purpose, reason (not saying that it’s bad). One effect of spiritual wisdom is that the need for reason, purpose, etc is extinguished. One of course will continue to use the intellect in the transactional sense, but the compulsive need is gone.
  6. Alien encounters during dream

    Don’t know about aliens but I’ve encountered many beings. One of note was a fox-faced one who split into 9 separate entities.
  7. Play music, listen to music, paint, meditate, vegetate (depends on what I’m in the mood for)
  8. Is there an east/west schism

    The conditioning is different between western and traditional eastern societies. It’s often difficult to tell the difference in modern times, with rampant urbanization and cultural assimilation (predominantly from west to east) - colonialism has a big role to play in that process. But there is also a resurgence of traditional eastern views as the trauma of colonialism begins to recede from generational memory. Ancient civilizations like India (dharma) and china (a more nuanced understanding is needed - how Chinese communism actually reclaimed confucian perspective) are reclaiming their roots , and will in the next 30-50 years become the predominant worldviews (given that 2/3s of the world population is in that region of Asia).
  9. Meditating I try to do raging it turns into maybe there're hidden things lurking deep within the one who sees the rage within and all the sobbing that come unbidden is always ever free is the real “real me”
  10. I've been noticing two types of different flows that occur above the crown - i.e. from top of the crown to about 18-20" above it. One is a spiraling (a double helical pattern) which turns slowly (frequency about 3-6 cycles per second). The other is a little sphere of energy in that area (usually notice it when I'm chanting a mantra) - which is like a double torus (donut) whose surface is flowing continuously. Any thoughts?

    There some very interesting theories about it, right here on daobums. 😆

    It’s a hunch of bs that I’ve seen some people spout off. There’s no validity to it in my experience.
