Dark Night of the Soul

Rated Jun 19 2007 • 3 reviews • mental health, spirituality, hsp, enlightenment, dark night • themystic.org

"Dark night of the soul" sounds like a threatening and much to be avoided experience. Yet perhaps a quarter of the seekers on the road to higher consciousness will pass through the dark night. In fact, they may pass through several until they experience the profound joy of their true nature. Many seekers would encourage the dark night experience if they knew what it was. However, to one engaged in the dark night, suffering seems unending.

A darling friend pointed this page into my direction after my latest bleak episode. I am anxious to continue reading this page and keeping it in my heart. I'll journal about my latest apisode - which I don't get often but significantly enough that it affects me and stays in my memory for years. I suppose in the past 4 years I have had 6 of these dark "nights" and this page is true so far in the sense that I have emerged more spiritually ascended than when I had initially descended.

I hope to understand and absorb more of this in the days to come and hope it can find and help someone else who has or may experience something like this.

The dark night occurs after considerable advancement toward higher consciousness. Indeed, the dark night usually occurs like an initiation before one of these special seekers is admitted into regular relationship with higher consciousness.

Now this line is quite interesting. Maybe 6 months ago I was reading Beth Moore's When Godly People do Ungodly Things and one of the things to look out for, she enumerated, was that after a Spiritual Awakening [Transcendance] or whatever you want to call it [ie, Feeling particularly close with God or your Spirit] that there always comes a time when one is "tempted" by the devil. [Or feel more comfortable using whatever words you like..."the enemy," or "the dark" or "negativity" or...whatever] but that what I take away as a common theme is that for every "spiritual hilltop" we manage to fly upon...there will inevitably come a time of extreme testing..or what this page calls it: The Dark Night of the Soul.

Biology of Kundalini - Exploring the Symptoms

Rated Jun 19 2007 • 1 review • mental health, kundalini, spirituality, chakras, dark night • biologyofkundalini.com

"Given the right circumstances stress could trigger a full-on kundalini awakening. It appears that the awakening of kundalini means the prolonged hyperactivation and dance between both sides of the nervous system with periodic dominance of the freeze response during extreme inner-events. It could be that after a certain period of this extreme nerve activity the immune system goes into a radical catabolic condition, what I call a die-off. Part of the function of a die-off could be the resetting of the nervous system equilibrium, breakdown of axions and restructuring to a more mature/advanced functioning. It does seem that the sense of being overwrought and out of our depths disappears after a die-off for we have assimilated our metamorphic progress to date and have a new lease on life. The timing of the die-off must correspond to both the intensity and duration of nerve activity. A more acute phase of neurological chemistry is followed more quickly by a die-off to help bring the rest organism up with the refinement or growth that has occurred in the nervous system."
