The spiritual and evolutionary process known as Kundalini awakening can be joyous or harrowing to those undergoing it. Many esoteric philosophies suggest ignoring all psychic and physical phenomena and staying focused on the goal: enlightenment and self-realization. This list community views the destination as being ultimately in the hands of Spirit, and focuses instead on sharing thoughts on the beauty and discomforts along the journey. The destination is universal, the paths to It are individual: religous intolerance and prosetlyzing are discouraged. Here awakened travellers of all paths may meet in harmony to share tales of thier adventures, and to assist fellow travellers who may be encountering difficulties along the way. The joy is in the journey.
