MAHAYANA SUTRA

CHAPTER TWO. ATTAINMENT OF KUNDALINI YOGA. PART 3


MAITREYA-TAISHI.
SUCESSIOIN OF MYSTIC EXPERIENCES

I clearly remember by myself the process of Kundalini Yoga. When I started my technical practice, the light of Kundalini rose in very strong manner. While doing Kunbaka, I began to see blue white light, and the rainbow color of five elements.

Then in the half awakened state while sleeping, I began to see "the light ball of will" or "the light ball of image" which the Master used to tell me. I was very impressed by its beauty.

I began to have various mystic experiences in the final week for the Master's visit to Egypt. It was a month after I started my technical practice.

At first,I felt my Astral body float like a balloon when I take 10 minutes of Shava Asana after practicing Pranayama or worshipping. It went up and down sometimes close to the ceiling.

Once my body was fixed, and then somewhere around my Manipura Chakra became numbed, and my consciousness departs to various Astral worlds detaching from my body. Sometimes to a room, sometimes into the scenery of the nature.

TRAVELLING AROUND IN THE ASTRAL WORLD

Going out from my body after practicing Vayaviya. After rising up through the darkness, I went down. I came up to a dark world, and it seemed that there were bones. My body was fixed and I had difficulty in returning.

Today, my consciousness detached from my body after the practice of worshipping. It went up and then went down as before. And I came out to the world with beautiful seashore. There were not so many people. It was like Hawaii.

Shivering goes on while practicing Vayaviya. It jumps as if it is Dardori Siddhi.

Around this time, I began to detach from my body in different ways - - suddenly from the crown of my head. I began to have expereince to go out from my body in very fast speed, passing through some black tunnel, and then going down.

After going up and down, I went to various worlds. The first world where I went was hell. I was later explained by the Master that it was hell. It is very suffering. Some things such as bones are falling on the ground. This is called "the Bardo Yoga". It feels as if "the body of manifestation" slipping out from the crown of my head.

Since I didn't like hell, I decided to go up after slipping out from my body. Then I actually went up and found myself in the very beautiful world like a resort world. The Master said that it should be the heaven or the world of Asura. There were not so many people. I had the experience of playing in that world.

That was the time I began to feel very delighted about doing technical practice. After doing Pranayama or the worshipping by throwing five part of the bodies, I took Shava Asana and waited, hoping to go to the Astral world soon. Since it began to occur often, for example twice or three times a day, I thought of my obtainment of supernatural power.

It should be about ten minutes. Short ones can be about 2 menutes. When I go to heaven or hell, I had to return back if I hoped to stay in those world much longer. In other words, I often returned back whensuch idea occured into my mind; In fact, I am doing spiritual practice in theisolated room.

UNLIMITED SUPERNATURAL POWER

The amount of Darduri Siddhi is increasing. I jumped for approximately 300 times.

Little after such experience, vibrationbegan at the time of Vayaviya Kunbhaka - it was so called Darduri Sidhi. I jumped many times while retaining my breath. First I thought that I was jumping intensionally, but as I made it sure, it seemed that I was jumping automatically.

As the days pass by, the jump is getting higher, and the amount of jumping increased. In the maximum I jumped for 300 times within the six houurs of Pranayama. This made me so tired. However, I felt as if I was dreaming at that time because I could detach from physical body, have Dardori Siddhi, and so forth.

But it was true that the technical practice was severe; for example, Pranayama for long period of time.

Little after that when my consciousness stopped detaching from my body, dream began to be very real. I immediately flew into the Astral world not only in the dreamwhile sleeping but also while taking short period of Shava Asana. I was playing around for 10 to 15 minutes. They are so real and I could enjoy myself.

Gradually, I began to see the visions which can be the memory of my past lives. For example, I am playing around with children and friends whom I had never seen before. I'm always showing somekind of supernatural powrs to them. Floating like a balloon was one of them. I kept thinking that I could really do levitation. I thought It was not the dream because I could actually touch my body. Later I woke up and found that an hour had passed. I was very surprised andI got back to my spiritual practice.

There was something like teleportation as well. I suddenly disappear from one scene of the Astral world, and I was being transfered to the next vision.

Even after my consciousness had returned to my physical body, if I wanted to go back into the Astral body again, I could only close my eyes and go back to the vision which I was satching before I woke up. It was as if I was wandering around the phenomenal world and the Astral world back and forth. In such situation, I enjoyed myself feeling as if I became the real inhibitant of the Astral world.
