Re: Bliss and The Striving Body - my healing (please read)

Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krsna!

Yes, thank you JagGaura you are spot on! I was fortunate today, took my new mahdal drum and temple song book to the local gardens and played Tulsi Arati for the pleasure of the Lord in my heart, and those walking (by glowed with warmth and peace). Haribol! My faith became stronger today...thx Prabhu!

We are so fortunate JagGaura because we have glimpsed the internal (and project less). My specific interest and study as a practical man, is how to share my insights and self healing with those who are deep in the mode of ignorance (they all know I am a sincere devotee, so that is a start). I describe bhakti in simple terms and live an example. As Paul the apostle said 'be all things to all men'. God will enlighten their heart to see the truth of our devotional heart and spirit in due course (in his time). In the last 6 weeks two friends have taken up my alternative therapies, one is now free of alcohol and slowly seeing the kingdom. The other friend has gone back to school and told me the other day he will never use marijuana again - I guided him to relaxing herbal smoking blends that have no addiction quallity. He is a major addict, and this week is attempting to give up the nicotine. This man I have been supporting and helping for the last 3 or 4 years. The other day he played karatal (for the first time) while I played drum and sang. He was very very nervous and has a long way to go (psychologically)... I asked him if he would like to practice the karatal twice a week with me. He said, yes, he had fun. We practiced internal bhajan together (with sensitivities) - each in our own way. I love him, my best friend here. Dont tell anyone ;) but I have plans to gather a small band of simple men...then we can go to the gardens together ;)

Here is my latest video, so that you may understand my practical work as an advocate  or at least some small service that God has granted me. And my past experience with spiritual emergence crisis.



...emerging of the unconscious...
from the book Holotropic Mind by Stanislav Grof M.D.

    ...All these observations led my wife, Christina (who has experienced a lengthy spiritual emergence crisis), and me to the conclusion that many states currently diagnosed as mental disease, and treated routinely by suppressive medication, are actually psycho-spiritual crises, or 'spiritual emergencies', as we call them. If properly understood and supported, they can result in healing and personal transformation...

love you guys, your servant Nava.
