Okay kiddies, here is a shake down on a spiritual modality, talked of frequently, and experienced usually limitedly. As you experience yourself from second to second, what in totality you are experiencing is a consciousness flux that is comprised of nothing more than prana as it emanates from your lower five cakras. There is in effect no "spirit or soul" in there. And, there doesn't need to be. The idea of soul or spirit has evolved in order to account for the seeming life affirming expereince of existence. Now you have consciousness, and this consciousness is coming from "the mind of absolute siva" that is the universe, and all planes of reality. The macro heaven that comprises divine reality. But your existence is manifested by the spiritual infrastructure that God uses to create the descended phenomenon we know of as life in our paltry world of needs, suffering, and expiration. The cakras are a divine system, as is everything in all reality. All we are, is the pranic sound of God coming up from the lower cakras into the mind cakra, the ajna. Om in Sahasrara initiated this pranic sound. Now, when the Kundalini Devi, who is literally the body of the cakras, is aroused and reaches Sahasrara Cakra, She agains goes into descent, but this time Isvara Siva as Her purified non-descent consciousness comes with Her. Now, you have the "Divine Spirit or Divine Soul" as your divine self consciousness, and this my friends is called the "Caitanyatma". Now you "ARE" the soul of God, and all your cakra function is divinized as well. Namaste, Yogin Bhairava Atmabhoda Sarasvati
Namaste Yogin Bhairava, so what we experience as our minds is merely a bunch of fluctuations coming from the lower cakras. Is this what is meant then in Kashmir Saivism when Jai Deva Singh states that "Mind is the slayer of the Real?" The mind being the state of maya, this whole experience of individuality coming from the cakras, is nothing more than an illusionary phenomenon as we understand it. So all existence is really the Goddess Kundalini Devi moving out from the source of Consciousness which is Siva, Caitanyatma, the Divine Self?
The term Caitanyatma refers to the state of consciousness that is the result of the Mother Kundalini going into ascent into the Sahasrara Cakra bestowing permanant Samadhi on the Yogin, and then moving back down into an integrating type of synergism whereas the yogin entire consciousness experience of self is totally saturated with the awareness of Sat-Cit-Ananda, as a living reality. This is when the yogin, whose finite consciousness originally was totally moderated as a pranic flux or projection, has now become one with the divine self consciousness that is the source of that prana. Prana is the first evolute of divine consciousness in the descent of the Mother Kundalini in the ultimate formation of our finite mind's experience of self. Prana inverted back into that source reverses that descent, into the divination of the individual, Caitanyatma. Now you have and are the soul or spirit of God, the experience of being one with the divine self that comprises all of reality, the omnipresence of Gods all pervasive heaven of divine mind.
Drink you some of that mad dog 20/20 and you'll be one of them caitanyatma things and all. Five bottles ought to do it.Tim Leary told me about it.
That's pretty funny. But that's really how most people are though. Drowning themselves in alchohol is there higher experience so to speak, of course its really just more death. Most people it seems would rather take some chemical or another and get loaded than to follow a discipline that leads them back to the origin of Consciousness.
