Yeah that's the one thing I was hoping the article would explain.

It's also a Vice article.

I can see your blue eye peering through a bagel's hole into the heart of modern times.

Yeah, the hangovers move way down deeper, like into your soul.

Honestly, that's the best way I've ever heard to describe it.

Absolutely true, and a great way of putting it.

Thank you for sharing.

I was reading through your posts and saw this: "The second is this: when Shakti pierces the 4th chakra and/or the hrit padma (below it) ... you'll gain a kind of "compass". From there on out, you'll always have a way of checking which path to go. It might mean staying with kundalini yoga, it might not be. The journey getting to the center involves piercing through the 2nd ganthri, learning to surrender. It will be like peeling an onion. You'll cry. A lot. And you'll know it is worth it."

This is related to kundalini yoga? Any recommendations on how to get started there?

I was speaking specifically to that person, not for the general case. Kundalini yoga is not the only way to awaken and work with the Kundalini. For example, a martial art enthusiast might check out Scott Meredith and Damo Mitchell's books to develop refined power and connect with Shakti through their martial arts.

Believe or not, you can get in touch with this heart experience that going to evangelical Christian revivals (there are some severe shadow sides related to this, however, there are Christian mystics around) or go attend kirtans. There are shamanic methods. Or just go to a rave and really open up your heart while dancing. Mindful prayers, asking to be guided into this will be heard.

Email me sometime. Maybe in the course of talking, what you say will remind me of a path that may really resonate with you.

How often were you meditating and how long on average was each session?

Twice a day, morning and evening for 30 mins. I go on for an hour sometimes too. Once you get the hang of it though it is much easier to get into deeper meditation quicker. Thesedays I do 30 mins before sleep every other day. I know if I need to do more when I start feeling anxious more often in the day. Check out reddit.com/r/meditation for a place to start.

Thanks!

This sounds fascinating. If you or anybody else can find the article please post it!

The following sentence explains it. "The way in which [the fibonacci spiral] continues to grow but stay true to its form is very much like Steinway & Sons over these many years."

Tbh, that could apply to any other number.

In the example he listed each note goes either up or down one note to the next chord.
