Hello Invicible,

That's very interesting. Guess your need to awaken your third eye forcefully backfired at you. That might also explain the cause of unbalanced chakra system that was explained to you.
When I took on the path of self healing and learning to use energy healing modalities, I didn't even think to forcefully open my third eye chakra or other means to sense the energy. I just followed the principle, let the results come to me as they come, freely, not forced. So by patience and slow learning I was rewarded with the ability to sense the energy easily without making any effort. I still cannot see the aura easily all the time, but my ability to feel the energy comes from my heart, which might be different from other extrasensory inputs like seeing aura, etc. And I don't bother to think about seeing the aura all the time, I just let it come to me easily as they can come unforced. That's because I read in the books about reading the aura that this ability is always available when you are in a mental state of fun or joy (meaning relaxed).
Now I have to deal with another problem related to the energy healing stuff that I do. It's way too complicated to explain, but I'll explain later when I feel I can't find another way to solve it and I might need some input on that from you as well cause two heads are better than one.

Hi, Maya

Excuse me for butting in. I was wondering how the workshop went for you...

That is fascinating!

so the snow mountain is the 3rd chakra area - navel area?

(If that is the correct body area)It makes so much sense! I understand that the human energy system is like a building - missing the foundational pieces leaves the higher levels vulnerable which can lead to imbalance...

Personal observation mixed with learning: also that all phyical illness is rooted from the first three chakras - something like that. Meaning, collectively we are so toxic-laden - rooted very literally in the intestinal area (I think it was Grz that made a great analogy about intestines having roots like trees). Of course illness manifests in the upper body too but the root cause is sourced in the lower three...

It is so interesting the dynamics of referral...the imbalance actually expressed itself in another area besides that which was underdeveloped...going back round to the layers ideas. Logically one might think the imbalance would show up there (in snow mountain).

It truly does come back to spiritual/energetic nurturance doesn't it?

I am motivated to continue learning where my imbalances are truly 'rooted' i.e. what area(s) is/are truly undernourished.

Although I do not concentrate on auras, I do the 3rd eye- and I see no that I have a vortex right on the area (the ubiqutious red dot area) and I can feel it before I "see" it now

I am going through an intense period of analytical study and I am trying to tune down all the other senses

But I've found opening up to them and asking for the information I need it does come...
So I am beginning to ask for the oddest information- and it comes- not at all spiritual;
?

Maya,

I am honored that you directed this thread to my attention, as well.

And I am in awe of the work and love that has taken everyone through learning to giving.

But I ha' m' doubts about the worth of any input from me. I have not studied as you have, and I am not a 'healer' in the same way you are, if at all.

In all things, I operate on a level I call, 'seat-of-the-pants' - I try to understand whatever I see around me, and attempt to fit in what I believe I have understood in the past, wherever it seems appropriate.

Naive, I suppose, but it is all I have. I was spoiled for 'doctrines', early on.

I also suppose that I place onus on 'attitude', particularly the ones of 'openness', and 'kindness', and 'anticipation', more than most others.

No matter my upbringing, I am stuck with optimism as my guiding light. I cannot see that the energy/power we come from, live by, and go toward, is ever 'less than' anything mankind can create or imagine.

We are unable to spoil the original, the eternal.

As I see it, we only live individual possibilities, infinite in variety, and that we may change in a twinkling, as we see fit.

In that light, I see the thinking of folks like Jane Goodall, ( http://www.janegoodall.org/jane/essay.asp ), as prophetic, and perhaps as guiding, as the opinions of any others.

I find everyone's opinion immensely interesting, often wondering how they came to their conclusions...but, most of all, I must be interested in the development of my own life. That's the task at hand, I believe...to do the most I can with what I have.

I appreciate your mentioning 'forgiveness', Maya. That's a stickler, isn't it? Galling, even.

The thinking that settles that issue for me, so far, is that everyone always does the best they can. Our actions, or inactions, are always the best we can think of at the moment.

As well, everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) is going toward fulfillment of every aspiration, complete contentment and serenity and harmony...even if they blow it here and there, along their paths.

As I say, I feel the power we call 'life' is greater than anything we could ever do to disrupt it, even collectively. In other words, in my opinion, there is no 'evil'. Counter-productive, yes; counter-harmony, absolutely; but only a part of the whole...another 'possibility'.

The greatest hurt, or damage, or 'bad', we can concieve is no more than a lack of harmony...just as the darkest, coldest night is a lack of sunshine. If we survive it, there is always what to do next, in sunshine.

If we don't survive, then we go gently and quietly into the fulfilling and glorious light, warmth, and peace that is our birthright, I believe, no matter the circumstances of our deaths. ...All of us.

If some have not thought of this possibility, and are surprised and don't know they are dead at that last moment of consciousness, then we who remain alive can 'help' them to 'go toward the light', easily, without becoming involved in the spirit's emotional questions which are no longer relevant. Those questions are all solved in the peacefulness of death.

The peacefulness is greater than any disharmony we can ever experience. The record of the person passes into the history of mankind, intact, another possibility fulfilled...even if the history was less than harmonious...just another possibility.

Of course, if we all truly go this route to peacefulness, that includes anyone who offended us. We can simply view them as having been 'wrong' in some situations involving us...and quite unimportant, now that we see what is better.

For I believe that our understanding of 'what is better', and doing it as best we can, is the most important thing in our lives.


So there you have it, life, according to this fledgling...so far.

Wish I knew more so that I could contribute to this conversation. There are some wonderful procedures out there, for restoring harmony in individuals, and, thereby, the world.

Good for you for doing them, and for helping everyone understand them!

My best,

Fledgling
