Mystress:

Most of the links to other material in lesson 3 do not work or point somewhere else.

I respect your decision of moving from lesson to lesson at a certain pace and understand that no solution is perfect, however one lesson a week is a very slow pace for me at least for these initial lessons. Hopefully you could take in consideration that people come to your site at different stages of development.

Yours,

Chyld

Genuine Master is in no hurry. S/he accepts things as they are, understanding that everything has it's own rhythm and time. In the mean time, S/he makes some more tea, being in state of utter amazement and wonder of the beauty of all creation. Just relaxed... I have a Brian Frouds Faerie tarot card in my mind, Geeeeooo the slow..

Geeeoooo the Slow â€" Slowness, waiting, patience. “The presence of Geeeeooo in a reading indices that the situation or issue is part of a long process that cannot well be hurried. It is important to settle in for the long haul and set a pace that you can maintain for as long as needed, while remaining relaxed and patient…”

You just got your chance for growth, which is developing patience and humility.

Updated links can be found from the link in the first lesson. Here it is:

Thanks for your comments Mari, and with all due respect I believe that I went through that learning before.

Quoting from a post from Mystress regarding her activity in second life:
"Well, that kind of distraction (and most of my email mysteriously going missing to give me more focus)  is not unusual when Goddess uses ADD hyperfocus to put me into a sharp and fast Shakti fired learning curve like this past two months has been. Whew! "

Who is to say that Goddess is not using ADD hyperfocus with me to learn these lessons as well....   but I will surrender to Mystress insight

 heh poll question for older students:

  What excuse did you use as a reason to skip ahead and what price did you pay for that?
 
  I am  a shaman, my training by spirit started at the age of 2. I am nearly 50 now. You think trying to compare yourself to me is not ego? Were you learning to face death with unconditional love as a preschool child?

If you are so advanced to have learned accurate discernment, then ask yourself how you would have handled the advanced speed learning you quoted me talking about?

  Learning to surrender is not about letting your ego have its own way.
I certainly prefer to refund and remove impatient students rather than see them go bananas from overload.

Hi Chyld

A warm welcome from me. I would like to share this with you:

I took FST for granted - just one of this “online knowledge courses” and my excuse to go fast through the lessons was that I have read most of the material already on k-teacher. My disrespect almost kicked me out (if you like check in Tea room: http://fire-serpent.com/tearoom/index.php/topic,1298.0.html) and it took me some time to get back on track.

It is like going on a very high mountain, in the beginning it is very easy but you need to stick to a certain pace to make it up. Trust me - if you let it - FST can change your life. I am now not even half through (this if funny … half through infinity ) and these weeks are quite intense for me (started with Divine Beloved lesson). Several times I had to surrender to Goddess the thought to quit FST - like this cannot be real â€" or lets go back to normal. Oh, FST is very real and I do not have even the slightest idea how it works.

I don't know anything about you and how much you read about Kundalini or how knowledgeable you are in spiritual things but my observation with FST is, that it leads me very deeply into myself to make experiences I would never dreamed about.

I like the sense of community in this Tea room and the chats (next week is one if you like to join â€" it is real fun). Mystress is a wonderful teacher she wants the best for her students.

Goddess brought you to this place …
All the best for your journey.

PS: Sorry for the long post and long sentences - you know I am speak German.

Dear Mystress,

i am not advanced neither trying to compare to you. i am not a shaman neither special in any regard. i do not have powers of any kind but am just a fellow traveller in this path that believes that Shatki will guide us at our own pace and that fear cannot be the motive to our decisions.

Shatki guided me to this site and to you as the teacher and i hope that asking questions or giving an opinion is not considered insubordination or disrespect, but again she guided me here and i surrender to what She wants.

chyld

Hi Ernst

Thank you for your post and advice and you are right that Goddess brought me to this site. Look forward to participate in the chats.

[q]What excuse did you use as a reason to skip ahead and what price did you pay for that?[/q]

The excuse I used was that I already had some knowledge on the subjects covered the first few lessons. While in  surrender the synchronicities came quickly so I justified skipping ahead with the idea that I knew the other stuff well enough(NOT the case). I skipped ahead and ultimately had to stop, my mind would not stop racing filled with so much noise I could not focus and I felt like screaming at the top of my lungs. I could remember having to turn off all the electronics in my surroundings I could feel them hum and vibrate with my body and feared they would explode if I focused on it...so much overload...the basics saved me from going mad...grounding and surrender.

[q]What excuse did you use as a reason to skip ahead and what price did you pay for that?[/q]

Excuse: Thought that the heart voice said yes to go ahead and didn't quite believe the seriousness of FST.

Price: Got so much information to proccess that I got stuck for around 6 years. Have become chronical sponge/hyper sensitive, and get energy overload by reading texts, thinking about someone, being with people, etc.

Yeah I went with that leap of faith about 12 years... and ya know what? Free Will is Goddess law and She will allow ego to get its ass kicked severely.  I'm not going to let people do that to themselves, with my art anymore. Thats not how this road is meant to go. Gentleness not craziness.

Hi, Chyld

When I think a lesson too easy I meditate about it a bit.
To assure myself that I understand how the lesson is relevant for my own life right now. And take it as a certain pointer to reality that can be observed everyday before our eyes.

What is curious that there always exist blind spots when reading the lesson. Simply the things that dont fit in our current system of belief are somehow not seen. Or read but then erased.
Or sometimes we read and already add to knowledge we have or to boxes we have for it.

So even If I would say I have read the lesson and it is fine I understand it. That statement might not have been entirely true. As it might only mean that I understood what I/ego was willing, ready to understand. So many times it happened to me that I thought I understood lesson, understood some comment from Mystress and found later with some embarrassment that I did not.
Well I could not get it, I think since I was too moved to just add it to what I already knew and happy that it confirmed what I already knew. But was it? I would call it a lazy approach now. Accepting information, but too lazy to think (or feel) about it.
In fact we rarely have overabundant energy to think, not even in our culture (or especially in it), including access to good brain food.
So during the course one makes body more balanced on physical and energy levels. And then when one returns to the lesson one is often surprised to find a different lesson there..
Even one sees lines of text that one did not see before. Ofcourse that is natural result of balance and growth. But I still think for me personalty that I could give it more time and attention the first time.
So it is not really about one week time as if you are forced to wait and be bored. But its is a chance and a gift, to use the space to think consciously or unconsciously about it. In whatever depth and energy expense you can spend. If you are willing to spend that is. And if you are more advanced the more you can allow to be revealed and the more you gain.

Love, Duu

Thank you dear Mystress, good to feel protected. Look forward to meet you 18 weeks from now.

Chyld

Dear Duu, thank you for your kind advice. I will give more time and attention to the lessons even if at first they look like something that I already knew.

Love, Chyld

  Ed, you were experiencing empathic overload for a long time before you found FST.  You were taught to resolve it years ago. Karma vamp level one, find outside energies by colour coding and apply unconditional love to transmute it. Takes 5 minutes? Turns the junk into yumminess.

   The whole point of karma vampire games is for overloaded empaths to become empowered by learning to transmute the stuff easily and gain power from it.  Once the empathic slime has been transmuted and the insights given back to the higher self of the owner, what you are left with is pure creative fire like the fabric of the universe is made of... and people are giving it to you, free!

  You don't bother because you are more attached to the power of victimhood.

  Saw a guy on TV who charged a small fee to clean barns, collect all the old straw and horse manure and cart it away.  People who kept horses were delighted to pay him to deal with the mess. He took it home to his farm,  and composted it, and resold it by the bag, for a fat price as specialty potting soil.
  Guy who can turn horseshit into gold is my kind of alchemist~!

  At any given moment, my body might be processing the stuff of more than a hundred... maybe more than a thousand people. You hear me whining about being a sponge? Rarely. What you will see is the output... all the art and creative work that represents my use of the "gifts" I am given once the karma of the energy is transmuted with unconditional love and acceptance.

  Remember in the sl tantra class, and in a chat I invited people to ask for a snapshot of what the energy of the art of Kundalini Mystic Isle looked like, before it was transmuted into peace and beauty?

  Most were a little shocked, it was like a glimpse into some smoking dark pit of hell. If fact those who had done it for the tantra class declined another look in the chat!

  Energy is energy, judgement makes it good or bad. You sit in resistance crying victim, no kidding it stays stuck. Its basic, Ed. When you surrender stuff, you say Goddess this is a *Gift* for you because a negative judgement keeps it stuck.
 
  Resistance gets you overloaded. All other incoming energies get backed up behind the resistance.  Can lead a horse to water...

Chyld,

Do you know what a genie is?

Martin

Hi Martin,

Like the one in Aladdin? 

chyld

No.

Like the one in the lamp.

The genie, or Djinn, is an Islamic concept.

For some time I have wondered what they are, but now I think they are comparable to the entities that Mystress describes. It is a little amusing that Mystress uses the term meme to describe the one dimensional nature of entities...as this comes from gene, which sounds a lot like genie. I believe gene and genie have unique derivations.

Genies don't have personalities. Personality has been described as an outpouring of love. Psychopaths don't have personalities. They borrow other people's lives and dance on them - if they can get inside Aladdin, then good luck to them, but mostly they just dance on the surface, like little, silly devils. - I think they think they can get inside a person...very arrogant.
To make up for their lack of personality, and this how you can tell a psychopath, they replace love with cruelty, as they incorrectly assume that cruelty is a personality trait. Always they are having a dig. Making accusations. The reason they do this is not because they are particularly cruel or perceptive, though they would love you to believe it, but because they haven't actually got anything to say.

This is a tantric sex educational group forum, for adults.

Is your chosen name a come hither and do you answer questions?

My understanding is that this is a Kundalini site and i am a child of Shakti the Divine Mother... that is all
