  2. I love your video so much. It has brought some real

    emotions of sadness, joy and humor up in me.

    I just rewatched the last 30 minutes of your interview

    2 more times because I keep starting to cry and miss

    what you're saying next. Especially, near the end

    talking about being love and experiencing it over and

    over until you know Yourself is love.

    That's just beginning to happen in me with Shakti. A

    deepening has been happening during the last 10

    days or so.

    Ever since the sat sang where your energy passing

    through me sank in a circular motion into my belly

    and I felt adhesions popping open, I have felt both a

    real deepening of relationship with Shakti and a very

    extreme sense of vulnerability.

    Sometimes there is also great sadness, but most

    often I feel vacant. That's the closest word for it.

    My belly feels open and soft and unstructured.

    I don't exactly recognize it as my belly. I have very

    little thinking and feel apart from whatever thinking

    comes. Its like the opposite of my usual obsessing.

    The only thing I know to do about all this, is to sink

    into it further and further. So far there is no bottom.

    When I'm scared I call for Shakti to help me. She often

    envelopes me and pulls me down deeper inside.

    I've had several moments of great startle when we

    spontaneously meld together and then flow apart

    again. My favorite thing is kind of Tibetan like,

    'becoming the Deity'. I move away from her and turn

    back, to see, not her, but to see me through her eyes.

    That's when a transforming love arises in me/her, love

    for my Self. Several times the force of love for me is

    so strong that I seem to burn with it until I'm gone and

    just a pillar of love is left. So far, this sense of being

    love lasts a few seconds before I rushes back in fear.

    So when you talked about being love itself near the

    end of the video, I just broke down in tears of relief

    and recognition. Its so disconcerting to be so vacant

    when not meditating, then gradually sink below the

    vacancy into a black velvet world with Shakti.

    I dreamed that my empty belly filled up with light that

    became like molten gold and and flowed out of my

    womb and down my vagina into the world. A glowing

    golden light form. I gave birth to something beyond

    knowing.

    When its really

    hard with an emotion like fear/panic, I have cried to

    Shakti for help. She has become very real to me.

  3. When in doubt, just always return to the I Am sensation however you feel it, whether a soft energy and openness around the heart, or as a solid sense of presence permeating and extending beyond the body into the world, just relax and be the I Am.

    Almost everyone has some sticking points. With you it is your abdomen. With me it has been my upper back and lungs as well as a too ready naivete at believing some or another spiritual figure rather than my own experience.

    Just keep talking to Shakti, love her, and feel her love.
