Dear sftm,

No harm done; no need to apologize.

I hope you continue to feel comfortable sharing with us.

after going through this. I have it on very good authority that this is indeed a demonic, opressive postulation of pride. After repenting of this and seeking the counsel of very strong christians, I have been renewed spiritually (though it is a thorn in my side a bit still) I have gone through lots of deliverance and most of the physical sensations have left too. there is hope for this, but try to get help before the final stages of this. repent of pride and repent of the lifestyle of humanism and witchcraft, yoga and agreements with the spirit of death. Get help from a strong christian who has dealt with deliverance, even possibly join a discipleship school put on by ywam. The kundalini is a manifestation of delusions of grandeur and making it to some level of nirvana that is only a trap for your soul. Do not dabble any longer, find help ASAP and repent. I mean of anything assosiated with it...even if its a physical repetious ritual like stretching or breathing or visualizing or qi gong or anything... bless you all. i love you and hope for you to all experience life to the fullest, but that is only in the light and the light is not something seen but how you live and how you do or dont subject your lives to others and get prayer and be honest with people so they know the real you...being in the light in repentance and subjection is the how Jesus can speak to Us. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. dont lose this wonderful reality by chasing a fantasy.

I don't know anyone who hangs out here who is into that sort of stuff.

Your sharing on this thread and a couple of others you've posted on indicates that you've fully given your life over to Christ, which is the most important thing. If you hadn't done so before, then that might be one reason why you were disturbed by some of the symptoms you were experiencing.

Proverbs 10:17 (New International Version, ©2010)

17 Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life,
but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.

So . . . just what are you implying, sftm?

You seem to have erroneous assumptions about what's being taught here about k. No one promotes or encourages it. Have you even read some of the discussions?

Fwiw, your analysis of k shared above -- the one you got from a "very good authority," is deeply flawed. And if you ever really experienced K awakening in the first place, then you are surely not yet done with it, no matter who prayed over you or what their supposed authority on this matter is about. Might as well try to reverse adolescence, which can seem awfully demonic (maybe more!) as well.

The purpose of K is to cleanse the body/mind and stimulate the chi/nervous system so that one can live in a state that transcends mental-egoic consciousness. "Oppressive postulation of pride" is the direct opposite of what K is about, so whoever told you that flat out doesn't know what they're talking about. Maybe some people start out that way -- wanting enlightenment, true self, etc. -- but if they truly awaken K, then those sort of motives will be purged out in short order.

As I've stated on this forum many times, I do not encourage people to go chasing after this experience. Most who come and post here were not seeking it in the first place, self included. It arose in the context of deepening contemplative prayer, and that's the proper context for it, I believe. It must be under the direction of the Holy Spirit to accomplish its true purpose, which I've stated above. Of course, I know some evangelical/fundamentalistic teachers have a problem with contemplative prayer as well, but that's just ignorance on their part.

I was doing kundalini yoga when I had left my faith but haven't practiced it for a long time and have since returned to Christianity. I don't intend to return to yoga but I dont like unnecessary judgement, yoga helped me a great deal when I was having severe anxiety attacks.

Hi SpongeCake, and welcome to the forum.

Yes, people have attributed all sorts of amazing things to K awakenings. Hard to say what's true in all that, and what might be influenced by evil spirits. There are many who've had positive experiences with K process, however, including many Christians.

Glad to hear you're finding your way back to Christ.
