Premium Member Path of Krama

“Not all souls are willing to burn to learn,
transmuting as light in mind-body urn.”
            ~ quote by poet


Krama, step by step energisation,
simply stated, is kundalini rise,
gripping us in all time meditation,
each rapture tremor embraced in surprise.

Awakening occurs in slow motion,
in a manner that leaves no room for doubt,
where presence sipping love’s magic potion,
from the world of ego, opts to walk out.

The prerequisite of course is a pure heart,
without which we cannot board God’s bliss bus,
growing in love, deeming no soul apart,
breath by breath we ascend without a fuss.

This path leads to God realisation,
wherein mood and mode is celebration.

Little by little
Soma nectar seeps
Igniting our form
Hidden pathways deep
Until we awake

Acceptant self
Simply looking
Feels bliss throb rise
In calm tranquil 

That is all
Direct path
So simple

We feel
Within

Joy

Premium Member Four Paths of Kashmir Shaivism

Divine enablement open secret
Each revelation hidden in plain sight
Bestowed upon us solely on merit
Teleporting us to heightened delight

Paths are many as of affinity
Spanda: the hum of the ohm vibration
Reverberation continuity 
Pratyabhijna: instant recognition

Then Krama: divine union in the heart
Electrifying Sushumna channel
Purring bliss ignition within restarts 
Kula: each moment divine miracle

Inner awakening fortuitous
Love mysterious and spontaneous

Here we get to a new visualisation
Chakras not six but twelve as of this computation
Root, sacral, navel, spleen, heart & throat
Plus upper palate, third eye, Guru & three at the crown afloat

This is an esoteric technique directly taught
So that errors into the practice are not brought
Involving mantra with inner light and focus in continuity
An energy path mystical not to be confused with Kundalini 

The practice involves cessation of breath without breathlessness 
Blurring boundaries between form & formlessness 
Penetrating the dark void to get to Absolute Oneness

The Tantras have many such agamas
Direct initiations - to lower mind enigmas
Take this, if we will, as Krama + Spanda

Premium Member Cessation

Unceasingly swings the maya pendulum 
Displaying wide variety illusion spectrum
That as ordained we may descend to rise
Beholding God everywhere as no surprise

So to bring about astonishment & wonder
Awareness veiled to make hearts asunder
Seeing and so believing in separateness 
Distanced from truth of singular oneness 

The pulse of life then separation & union
That that we may re-cognise in celebration 
A play divine in which we too co-conspire 
Krama mudra oscillations does bliss sire

Squeezing out of each vibration cessation
At the moment poignant of polarity rotation
Never from ourself distanced within space
God omnipresent bestowing upon us grace

Conventionally in breath based meditation 
We watch breath and then quieten attention
This practice presupposes we abide in stillness slow
Our orientation still & silent watching our breath flow 

Meditation as thought free stillness a counsel superfluous 
Enabling cognition of slow motion Krama mudra continuous

We have three kundalinis to keep in our view spherical 
Pranic, void like awareness & consciousness universal

As the three merge in singularity one with our breathing
We simply look on in quietude imbibing bliss enlivening

The bliss movement is slow like an ant slowly creeping
Essentially soma nectar through hidden nadis moving
The movement is from root to crown
In ineffable bliss we choose to drown

Within

The Krama path of step by step progression
Also goes by the name of kundalini ascension
The path if there is any path being emptiness 
As we slowly erase ferality from consciousness 
Desires & fears & attachments & ego craving
All that is transient and as illusions oscillating 
Thus making space within for magnetic synergy
Drawing in osmotically divine life pulse energy 
Stilling not stillness we let stillness still our being
Transmuting consciousness to bliss enlivening 

Now the manner of the energy path may be any
It could be sudden & turbid or gentle & sedentary 
What matters most is we rest all vicarious knowing
For what unfolds in reality is amazingly scintillating 
In any case thoughts are imaginary & delusional 
In silence & stillness we cognise the divine miracle
Our orientation shifts to innocence simply flowing
There being no finality to each enablement glowing
As on date this traveller does affirm with certainty 
That explosive ecstatic bliss reignites in continuity 

Within

Tantra trika 
Para, para-para & apara
Like the Gunas three
The highest sets us free

Para absolute singularity 
Para para interconnectivity
Apara duality

Four paths awaiting selection
As of our orientation 

The first Pratyabhijna or recognition 
Divine grace in prayerful meditation 

The second Spanda or vibration
Resonation with the Ohm pulsation

The third Krama or kundalini ascension 
Assimilation in step by step progression

The fourth Kula embracing life in elation
Each moment in the continuum celebration 

These paths blend and often intersect
The truth being as we did always suspect
That divine love alone keeps us erect

Moment to moment to moment continuous
The dance of bliss within rapturous & beauteous

Premium Member Sushumna

Brutal honesty in the inward spiritual search requiring discarding all lower mind thought constructs, including anticipation borne of perception arising from memory imagery, Krama mudra is the direct and fearless exploration of each enabled vibration, directly cognised in wonderment and astonishment within our energy body. Essence of being is realised as resident within the rod of initiation or staff of power, as the Sushumna is often called. The radiation of ineffable bliss throbbing within the central funnel as bliss climax in renewal continual, heightened at geometrically spaced chakras is unmistakable. No doubts remain.

The energy grid
Radiating inside out
Bliss within throbbing

Life Is....

Life is a war;
so i fight.
Life is a story;
so i write.
Life is now;
so i live.
Life is Krama;
so i give.
Life is in motion;
so i move.
Life is a dance party;
so i groove.
Life is learning;
so i understand.
Life is unpredictable;
so i plan.
Life teeters on the edge of death;
so make sure you live like nothing's left.
