My very first Kundalini experience was triggered by LSD-25 in early 1978. It was perhaps my 6th or 7th psychedelic experience? And despite my years of involvement with sitting meditation (initially Zen but followed by TM), I had no idea exactly what Kundalini was or what changes it could bring to one's perception of oneself, universal energy and... an avenue to embracing the immensity of Infinity. Naturally, this led me on a great quest, one fueled by my initial, spontaneous experiences with the "serpent energy".
I eagerly became involved in the Self Realization Fellowship in early 1980, which expounds the teachings of Swami Paramahamsa Yogananda (whose book, Autobiography of A Yogi, changed millions upon millions of lives). Kundalini/Kriya Yoga is the science of energy flow and direct spiritual transmission. It holds that prana or vital life force, is intricately linked to the breath and the vital spiritual body patiently awaits our focussed attention to awaken within this 3-dimensional paradigmn. Meditation is sooooooo key towards this endeavor, a path leading beyond the beyondest beyond. The auric body, the ethereal form which resides concurrent within the physical body, is nurtured and essentially ignited by the rise in our Kundalini.
Many moons have passed since then and living life has brought me a greater understanding about the nature of this universal play of an unbridled energy and it's silent counterpart, ecstatic repose. Many things have shaken my surface views on my own life, shattering the self-perpetuated dream of my fragile bubble of individual existence. At the appex of my search for higher consciousness, following decades of sadhana and deep inquiry... the alluring call of the entheogenic path pulled my attention right back to the neo-shamanic ways. Mushrooms led me to N,N-DMT and nearly a decade later, to the miraculous grace of 5-MeO-DMT. This sacred molecule has redefined everything I know about conscious-awareness, direct intent, spiritual resolve and the ineffible nature of the Absolute force which is all pervasive, wholly inerrant within all of this consensus world of reality, that we all co-create together.
After some study and reflection about this sacrement of medicines, I found this website, a safe haven for those baptized by the power of the Toad healing. A kind and wise soul helped me to fascilitate my inaugural voyage with 5. It superseded everything and more of what my entire spiritual journey had revealed. Granted all medicines are external allies and without their intervention, we wander through the avenues of reason and imagination. The Kundalini release shook me to the core and I honestly expected that I had gone and done it... overdosed and in so doing, died. Thankfully, I live on to tell the tale. At the peak moments of the voyage into Divine Light, it was difficult to maintain poise and posture. I fell forward, hands outstretched, as I fell into the expanse of an infinite, all-absorbing presence. Holy... God!!!
The Kundalini shot up the spinal axis with such intensity and immediacy, I was scarcely able to hold my attention upon the HUGE ascension to the higher crown region. Good lord... the parallel waves of energy which rises with the rushing force of the God Molecule, crisscrossed at each chakra, oddly, it did not find it's home within the sweet spot of any psychedelic traveler, the all-seeing eye, the proverbial third eye or Ajna chakra. The current lingered for some minutes but shifted much higher, only to explode like a supernova within the field of the limitless expanse of the Sahasrara (the 7th chakra).
Within seconds, all I could perceive was unlimited primordial Light. I had been dissolved by the sky rocketing eclipse. The whole of my perceptual field was fully immersed in a fulcrum of insubstanciality, undifferentiated effulgence. Tonal frequencies hummed and buzzed with tremendous presence. I find that 5 loves to use sound and vibration to reveal the higher truths. I have had many whiteout experiences but this and the two other anointments which followed, lifted my awareness to the point where the difference between oneself and all other selves is zero. There are no words, truly, but suffice it to say that such grand immersions are what leads me deeper and deeper into my daily spiritual practices. Another benefit is a far greater feeling of interconnection with all other life forms engaged within this web of life we weave as an intricate collective whole.
