Kundalini is the most powerful force in the universe. It is also the most misunderstood force. While I can’t claim to have full understanding of Kundalini, I do have some experience that may help you understand something about it.
Yogic scripture tells us that Kundalini is the evolutionary force that drives transformation. It does this by changing DNA through mutation by combining parental characteristics.
While some mutations can have a negative outcome, overall there is a positive change which improves the species. Every species of animal, plant and microorganisms evolve.
The fastest evolution happens through sexual procreation. Organisms that reproduce asexually aren’t going to be covered here. Sexual reproduction transforms through combining genetic material from the female and male of the species. However, transformation of the DNA occurs in the body of a yogin who practices deep yogic techniques in a process that involves fully awakened Kundalini.
All sexually reproducing organisms exist with the imperative to procreate. They are driven first to survive because without survival procreation is moot. That is the first energy of all organisms; survival. Which is also the first energy center in the body, the first chakra.
This survival energy center is the root of Kundalini where she lies dormant until awakened. Humans are designed to survive. Put in any circumstance humans will be driven to survive by any means. The priority is to survive in order to reproduce. In a way it is the drive to reproduce that drives survival.
It is written that Kundalini is a sleeping serpent coiled at the base of the spine. When survival is threatened she partially awakens and drives the body to survive. Once survival is assured, Kundalini, still only partially awakened, moves up to the second chakra which includes the organs of reproduction.
Kundalini exists in the DNA itself. When your DNA sees another DNA that matches, Kundalini partially awakens as the force that creates the desire to procreate, to merge with that other set of genetic material. All animals are driven by that desire, it is the base desire, the root of what drives us. In some circumstances it can even bypass survival.
Yoga helps heal almost any condition there is. Here are the techniques you need to know to make this true for you.
Yoga can help heal almost any ailment there is. The help yoga offers may be limited with some conditions, but in general it will help, and in some cases heal. All it takes is a little diligence and three yogic techniques that anyone can do.
Yoga postures are widely known. They can be practiced by anyone regardless of age or physical limitation. And, it will most likely improve any limitation you might have!
It took a few years of teaching yoga postures for me to fully realize this about yoga. The evidence was literally hundreds of people telling me how it helped them. The variety of conditions people experience improvement, which no longer surprises me, but I do love to hear people’s stories.
One story I heard was from a fairly young woman who came regularly to a couple of classes a week. I had noticed a med alert bracelet early on but didn’t really think much about it. Then one day I saw that she didn’t have it on anymore. After asking about it she told me she had a heart issue from birth, but after only two years of yoga her cardiologist told her she didn’t need the bracelet anymore.
Of course, there are conditions that yoga can’t do much for, but so far I haven’t found anything that is completely immune to the positive effects of regular practice. After 40 years of teaching I have to say that every condition and ailment there is can be helped at least a little with regular practice.
And, this improvement is with just taking classes that teach the postures that gives a good stretching workout and maybe a little breathing practice. But, when a little meditation is added to the practice, the improvements are greatly increased.
Meditation is an important part of yoga. When combined with yoga postures the healing effects are significant. Focusing your attention on anything is meditation. And, focusing on a physical issue helps bring energy to the distressed area which helps heal. Focusing on an area of your body while stretching that area will speed healing as well as increased flexibility.
The energy body is not fully understood by western science, but the ancient yogis studied it in depth and learned more about it than modern science currently understands. Even so, the findings of ancient yogis have been proven to be true over and over again through modern scientific research and experimentation. The healing powers of the mind and focus are starting to be discovered by scientists all over the world.
The Cosmic Aum Is Found In The Background Radiation Remnant Of The Big Bang
Science has proven the existence of Aum. The universe is permeated by Aum in the form of the CMBR, the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. It is also known as CBR; Cosmic Background Radiation.
The CMBR is left over heat from the creation of the universe. It proves that the big bang started the expansion that is our universe 13.7 billion years ago. A point infinitesimally small exploded and quickly expanded into the universe we live in today.
Everything in the universe comes from that beginning. What is left from that original spark is thermal radiation that permeates everything.
The universe has a temperature. Absolute zero is the lowest temperature anything can achieve, and the universe, even in its furthest reaches, is slightly warmer, 2.725 degrees Celsius warmer. That warmth comes from the CMBR.
The CMBR accounts for 99.9 percent of the particles of light in the universe. The other .1 percent comes from stars. Every cubic centimeter of space contains 300 photons from that original explosion of creation.
The CMBR was first noticed by scientists who were attempting to listen to sounds from distant stars and galaxies. They were confounded by a noise that was everywhere they pointed their radio telescopes. Older television sets produce static when tuned to a station that isn’t being used. About one percent of that static is the CMBR. That is the static those scientists found.
According to ancient Hindu scripture Aum permeates the entire universe. It is called a sound that permeates the universe. It is also called the cosmic seed because it is what everything sprang from. It is the sound of God.

Healing acne isn't really hard at all. But, it does take a lifestyle change that can be hard at first.
Changing your diet is something that people don't like to do, especially when it means giving up something you love. But, if the evidence shows you that you can and will feel better without your favorite foods, then it gets much easier.
Acne can have various root causes, but the most common cause has to do with eating sugar and processed foods. Sugar includes all types of sweeteners including 'healthy sweeteners' like honey, maple syrup, raw sugar and just about anything else you can think of. There are a couple of exceptions like Stevia and alcohol sugars.
Processed foods in this instance mostly means foods with ground up grains in them. Bread, chips, noodles, fast cooking oats and just about anything in a package to name a few.
The reason those are so bad is two fold. First, they feed organisms in the gut that need to be kept in check. The main one is candida which is one of the big causes of acne and even dandruff. The other is to keep blood sugar down.
High blood sugar is responsible for most of the modern health issues that people suffer from including serious conditions like cancer, heart disease and even depression and anxiety. And, it causes hormone imbalance that is widely recognized by the medical community as the main cause of acne.
What you can do is to stop eating these (non)foods for three weeks. If you don't see a difference in your acne then there is something else going on, but I can almost guarantee that you will see a difference! Seeing that for yourself will inspire you to keep to a better diet and enjoy having clear skin for life.
If you want to know more about curing acne you can find more articles on this list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EaipW6ObWQ9F6VAY2HBoWUoKwfL0ZI3voaQG9T8Mi-M/edit?usp= There are also articles about help with scars, diet for great skin and more. While topical products can and will usually help with acne, diet should be at the top of your list to keep your skin clear for life.

Nota Bene: I have several unfinished projects. I’m too impatient, I want anything to be made quick, and ‘quick’ never works with ‘really fine’. So I have to remind you that most of the stuff I post here is SKETCHES. And, again – don’t throw things at me for leaving blank eyes, it’s just my personal issue. Thankyouverymuch, passing to the actual comment…
People on Tumblr used to have jokes about agent Coulson aka son of Cool Coul being capable of murder via manila folder. What can I say… PEOPLE, DON’T KID WITH THIS MAN. Most of you have already seen “A Funny Thing That Happened On The Way to Thor’s Hammer”. Excuse my caps lock, but HE POLITELY DISABLES ARMED DUDES WITH A PACK OF FLOUR. And doughnuts… they practically represent his dangerous ambivalence (dark, light… whatever, BOTH!)))
I couldn’t resist, okay?!
I just had to make this one. A quick doodle, yes, but I needed to share the idea.))
Also, Loki & kittens… ASSEMBLE.
The music I share in this very case is relevant, again…
This is a photo of my grandmother, Louise Seate Bowie, with her husband Clyde Bowie. They are pictured after an outing in Byrd Park in Richmond, Virginia (ca. 1940s). This is one of few photos I’ve seen of the two of them together, and I know few details about their relationship. I like to...
