"This is a very deep meeting, one that exists beyond time and space. And it's all based on a letting go: a letting go of the mind, a letting go of sensations, a letting go of individuality and all that is suggested by or limited by individuality."
Beginning
Namaste to all,
Several months ago I saw several videos with David and my previous Guru. I didn't know anything about him, but noticed the transmission instantly. I wasn't sure why.
I am no longer in this Guru's Ashram for reasons to difficult to describe. I was brought to my knees in despair but continued forward with acceptance of this fear that gripped me, knowing it would somehow pass. This major upheaval has been perhaps one of the greatest blessings ever bestowed. I have my previous teacher to thank for this tremendous Shaktipat.
Watching my first video of David, the mind slowed and serene energy was felt. I felt utter peace, trust, love, and relief. I continue to receive transmission from the videos and I have seen one webcast. Tomorrow I will attend an intensive in SF. Feeling very blessed to attend.
I am very curious about other's experience of Kundalini while under the guidance of David. I am also undergoing quite a transition from using very specific practices, to a path with very little. What to take and what to leave behind?
I am so glad to find David and a community, which makes sadhana such a joyful experience.
OM

Hi Jeannette, George from Vancouver at it again-to see my experience of Kundalini I suggest the video clip where this first happened to me a few months ago:"Just Be That", in particular the 11th minute but an experience that lasted several weeks and as I now accept it was an 'experience' so it passes but leaves a special residue, especially the knower/knowingness behind all experiences! Hope to meet you in SF in future--George
Shakti
Namaste George,
David mentioned something at the intensive about the way Shakti is transmitted around him is "finer" maybe not so intensified as I am used to experiencing. It is pretty much an ongoing experience all day, with mudras, kriyas, and vocalizations. Perhaps this will fade, perhaps not.
At the intensive I had very little, except for some mudras and head twitches. I m no longer focusing on the Heart Center, but on the Shakti felt, wherever it may be.
Thank you for the response, I hope to meet you too.
OM
Jeannette
Transmission
Hi Jeannette, probably won't get down there this year, ask ABHA for my e-mail if you wish. There is a Jon Madsen naturopath up here that treated my family before, perhaps a relative?
Shakti can be initiated like a Big Bang, I suggest not getting too hung up on the 'experience' but be more attentive to where it will settle, you'll definitely be at a different level of Being from where you will live from once the transition completes itself--until the NEXT movement happens by Grace: Something is lost and something is gained...
I suggest for now to just be 'THE KNOWER' of whatever phenomena is there, you may find quite an increased depth of perception and awareness because of your experiences occurring at a heightened level.
Also, ask Rick for info on the twitches you are having as he is very familiar with that aspect of Kundalini.
You can try me at [email address removed by administrator]. Blessings--George
Always beginning...
Hi Jeanette, Like you I was with a guru from India for almost 10 years. She opened me up to shakipat but after a while the practices felt too limiting and it was a difficult transition at first..letting go of the known into the unknown. But somehow I knew transmission from the teacher and grace were very key. I also felt I was trying to "achieve" with the practices and this felt limiting. I then turned to an advaita teacher and through several years with him I became self realized. But several years after this it all felt so flat or dry. Just vertical and not enough horizontal as David discusses in one of his video. After a few years of going it with no teacher, I finally came across David. I was so tired of religious and spiritual garb....and garbage....I was looking for the ordinary. He did not look like a spiritual teacher and looked like an engineer. I liked that. And when he opened his mouth divine nectar came out. For me David is the ultimate marriage or union of Shiva and Shakti. He is Natural transcendence. This process I think should be natural, ordinary and organic. For me he is like sitting in the sunlight...no more is needed other than to sit and bask in this light...open and receiving until I am firmly grounded rooted and forever absorbed. I am so happy you have found him, too.
