I've been experiencing the joys of kundalini for the last couple of weeks... my absolute favorite was when it was sitting at my throat chakra and felt like someone was trying to choke me... I don't know if how I'm describing this is going to make any sense but I have noticed there is a place where the energy sits... and then the next higher chakra is the one that it reaches for, by that I mean I can feel the energy just barely touching the next higher chakra. At the moment it is sitting at the 6th chakra, and reaching for the 7th. In the last couple of days I've noticed what seems like a small but noticeable "clump" of energy above both ears. As the kundalini has gotten into the 6th chakra, these clumps of energy, which are somewhere about half an inch above both ears seem to be becoming more dense. Do they have a use, name(s), do they exist... ?
Also I was curious about whether or not it is a good idea to "gently pursuade" Kundalini to go higher ? Every now and then when I meditate I use a relatively strong burst of emotion to temporarily make it sit one chakra higher than it is currently at. I was wondering if this this temporary move is a good thing to do. I was curious about examples of what it is supposed to feel like when Kundalini is in the 7th chakra, and higher so I'll tell you what I did, and tell me if I did this correctly....
I used emotion and concentration just like anything else to direct the Kundalini from my sixth chakra to the 7th. It was a bit of a stretch, I could feel that I wasn't really ready for it though that's hard to describe how I knew. The energy was sitting in the 7th chakra, and I felt my consciousness move to the top of my head. I saw all sorts of weird things and different ways of looking at things. It was like I was being spoken to by myself and myself was making all these references to chakras compareing the body as being the bottom of a flower, and naturally my earth chakra began making roots of light. Then my consciousness turned back to my crown chakra, and showed it as being the top of a sunflower and it was catching "sunlight" but not from the sun, it was coming from the sun above my head, my own personal sun.. I tried to step up the energy farther, to see if I could take my consciousness and go into this sun which was beaming down energy to my sunflower shaped crown chakra, but I couldn't. I couldn't do it because my consciousness wasn't high enough to go up to that level and my self was telling me that. But it did do something else, I couldn't "be" where that little sun was but it/me showed me image that represented the "little suns" of everybody else and said something like, "see your all a galaxy" and it compared the galaxy of people's stars with the real galaxy.
Then I came to the apparent realization of what can briefly be translated as, "Tour is over." and opened my eyes, looked at the time and though I thought at first that I had been meditating for like two hours, maybe more, my clock told me it was really just one. I measure how good my meditations are based on how much time I lose.. ex, if it felt like an hour, but I was only meditating for 30 minutes, then I say that is good. If on certain occasions it feels like 23 minutes and I was meditating for actual 23 minutes...... not so good.
So what do you feel, what are you supposed to feel when you have kundalini at the 7th chakra, and is there anything past the personal sun ? As I might have mentioned earlier, when I tried to raise my consciousness to that personal sun, that was when "it" took over and just started showing me all those images so I didn't get the chance to "probe" exactly what that personal sun was or to feel what it was like to "be" it aka move my consciousness inside it before it drop kicked me out of meditation like a bad habit. I couldn't be sure if it was my personal sun talking to me, or something else... during the images when they started going out of my control, and the whole sunflower thing happened, it seemed like I was talking to it but just so it could show me the images... for ex. I thought that the sunflower should have been a white lotus, etc. in keeping with the whole chakra stuff.. and that voice, laughing at me with words said, "you don't know what a white lotus looks like." with an extremely rapid explanation that the images had to be of things that I could mentally imagine, aka, things I know
Anyways has anyone had something like this happen to them with kundalini reaching up to the seventh chakra and higher? Also, though the energy is touching the 7th chakra even now, if I wait till it is properly and completely sitting at the 7th chakra, and then do the same meditation again and try to step up to my personal sun, is it possible to "be" at it the same way I do with all lower chakras, does this thing keep kicking you out of meditation after it says something ?
