The Mind - The "Reptillian / Avian" Mind (Page 1 of 3)

That link doesn't work. I'll try it later though.

Christine, I didn't mean to discredit Castaneda or Don Juan. I've read a lot of his material, mostly from Laura's referance in her works. I've enjoyed his simplistic brilliance, if I can be bold enough to label it that.

The main thing I'm pointing out is that Castaneda (Don Juan) may have not have known the vast history of mankind, therefore he wouldn't have been able to hypothesize of what our original purpose was before the fall. Even the C's don't go into the details that the Pleidians do in regards to the "Original Planners". They considered it too complex to be told to the medium. Therefore his description of our mind being the "predator's mind" is based on what it has been tweaked and manipulated to as of late. Originally this may not have been the case, if refering also to Marciniak's literature on the Pleidians.

Perhaps at 2-Stranded DNA, the Reptillian part of our minds is dominant? Or rather dominant until we put our will-power over our emotions and the subtle programming that has taken hold in our lives. Yet I think that once the remaining 10-strands are activated, awareness rises with equivalent Avian-factors/benefits popping up.

Thanks for pointing out the site though. Let me know what link works and I'll definately read up more on Castaneda's literature.

Adonai, Namaste and Kudos!

Hmm, never read Castenada but Ive always thought of the reptillian as being the most primal portion of the brain. 

"Perhaps at 2-Stranded DNA, the Reptillian part of our minds is dominant?"  Perhaps.. and interesting question,. I consider the reptillian mode of expression to be of a sexual nature. A lower vibration of the body mind.

And I find the raising of the serpent in kudalini meditations offer a path in which you can access that mode of expression/ or vibration in a more direct way.

So do you all think kundalini is linked with reptilian energy? I've read much texts praising the rising of the kundalini, saying it was a more direct path to "enlightment" (anything promoting "spiritual shortcuts" is suspect in my book). Thinking in particular about Sahaja Yoga (http://www.sahajayoga.org). Do you think it's a trap setup by our friends the lizzies?

Anything can be a spiritual shortcut if you do it at the right time in the right way with the right state of mind (right being a relative term here, not a definitive). ^_^ The problem with people who speak of ways of enlightenment is that they are speaking usually of some event or events that brought to them a profound shift in consciousness and/or understanding.. and not everyone can use the same method to achieve that state of change/being.

Dudes, what excatly is spirituality. All things ? certain thing? Ive really had a hard time grasping anything as spiritual.  Dunno, lately it seems to me that as I learn there is less desire to call things spiritual, or say enlightenment. I can define experience as spirituality but Im not going to, it doesnt feel like Im any more enlightentened or spiritual  than anyone.

Tararota "Agreed, hence the value of designing your own system/reality as even the best system ever will not be YOURS and can therefore be restrictive for YOU."

If I design my reality as the best system ever, it will be. How is that not mine and resticting my flow, it seems more liberating and maybe one of the best attitudes to have!

:)Shows you the highly individualized experience of all .

Ok my views on kundalini,
Look at kundalini, an expression of energy, look at the visual meditation, raising of energy from your reproductive organs up the spine, under the top of the skull and out the nose, notice the path, :its a serpent being charmed . the motion  can only be called snake-like the energy expressed can only be called sexual, So there is a connection there to reptiles, and reptiles may be defined as being primal. In my belief based on my experience this energy is not outside myself, there are no forces at work manipalting me, I am the force that manipulates myself. Ie, there are no outside influences effecting of me unless I decide to let them.

Raising the kundalini prematurely is tempting. I was interested about it a month ago when it dawned on me that I would be encouraging something that naturally occurs if you simply develop your bioelectric circuits, naturally and patiently. You start with your minor chakras, then your major chakras, and a kundalini experience may result naturally or quite easily by command if you seek it.

From what what I've read, prolonging the kundalini-rise is when enlightenment comes. The longer you hold it, the further the elaboration on the experience. The new-ager's say it awakens 'christ-consciousness'.

Personally I don't think it's a 'trap setup by lizzies'. The human-body wasn't designed by them. It's a trap to manipulate our bodies into 'short-cuts' which one of the many "I's" of our being is perhaps not ready for.
