My camera's broken after an incident involving salad dressing.

Freedom from Karma, Krodha (anger), Raga (desire) and Dvesha and possession of balance of mind, cosmic love, astral vision, supreme fearlessness, desirelessness, Siddhis, divine intoxication and spiritual joy are the signs to denote the awakening of Kundalini. When it is at rest, a man has full consciousness of the world and its surroundings. When it is awakened he is dead to the world. He has no body-consciousness. He attains Unmani state. When Kundalini travels from Chakra to Chakra, layer after layer of the mind becomes opened and the Yogi acquires psychic powers (siddhis). He has control over the five elements. When it reaches the Sahasrara (highest) Chakra, he is in the Chidakasa (knowledge space).
When piercing the first chakra at the base of the spine, the individual is said to acquire the full knowledge of the kundalini and the means to awaken it.He gets the Darduri Siddhi, which is the power to rise from the ground, he acquires knowledge of the past, present, and future. He enjoys natural bliss.
When the next chakra is pierced,the individual gets many psychic powers, and perfect control over his senses. He has full knowledge of the astral entities, and he or she becomes the conqueror of death.
Next, the navel or "lotus" chakra is pierced, bringing forth such siddhis as the ability to acquire hidden treasures and being free from illnesses.
The individual who is able to in turn pierce the fourth chakra, located in the center of one's chest or heart, can attain certain siddhis such being able to fly in the air, and enter into the body of another.
The vishuddha chakra, or "throat chakra", is located at the base of one's throat. Meditation and piercing of this chakra can bring forth immortality.
As marvelous as these "siddhis" may seem, some say:
"The Siddhis are hindrances to Realisation. The Yogi should not at all care for these Siddhis, if he wants to advance further and get the highest realisation, the final Goal. He who runs after Siddhis will become the biggest house-holder and a worldly-minded man. Self-realisation only is the Goal. The sum total of knowledge of this universe is nothing when compared to the spiritual knowledge that is obtained through Self-realisation" -Sri Swami Sivananda
Im coming to Montreal mid-april for a few days. Yipee!
I have always thought that if I ever got the siddhis, then I'd be able to enjoy it for a very long time, all the while keeping it secret of course, it is an esoteric practice after all.
See you soon!
