*sheepishly* Yes, I know I shouldn't be practicing Kriya without proper guidance... I've learned that now, after going through that rapid balancing experience. There was a big part of me that did not believe Kriya worked, and so I pushed the limits to make it prove itself. That night where my heart chakra fully opened is enough proof for me. I'm not doing Kriya anymore until I get initiated. Thanks for your concern, I now see that it

The problem is just, it's very hard to execute it properly from a written description. There are many subleties to consider.
For example, the technique is being taught in several levels. The levels are in a way quite similar, but not the same. The effect is a very different one!
If you mix up the levels you mightbe in trouble.
The first level for example is mostly for preparation and you can quickly proceed to the second, after a few months. The second level will activate and clear the lower three chakras. This usually takes between 10 and 20 years, gradually preparing you for more and more energy. More energy in the sense that you will be able to hold higher spiritual vibrations as well as in the sense of being able to stand more and more heavy emotions.
The harder part are the heavy emotions.
If you re accidently doing the third level ( or even higher ) you will flood your system with an amount of energy that it is just notprepared for.
This holds true in a positive sense, you might be confronted with an intensity of light you just cannotbear and more so on the "negative" end:
You're confronting yourself with an energy as if you already had ALL your lower chakra issues and thus ALL yourheavy emotional issues AND trauma cleared.
As i said, if you ever re-experienced trauma, i guess you dont want to have it all at once, but in small portions.
Otherwise a part of you (the breathing one) is forcefully digging for traumatic emotions while the other part tries to suppress this with even more power. This ususlly results in psychosis.
You would to awaken all this safely and in a pace thats suitable for you.
Given you do it with proper initiation and proper preparation and step by step, ican highly recommend it. It will speed up your evolution greatly!
If you let me know which country you re in, i might be able to point you to someone who can iniate you.
Over here the initiation is very affordable and if you have no money you will receive it for free!
[quote]The concept of love being a threat seems strange, but I can attest to such a reaction given my low-vibration experience immediately following the heart chakra one. Looking back, it felt like the energy was being forced through my blocked-up lower chakras, but at the same time it felt so wonderful I didn't know any better. I am certainly glad it happened, though. I imagine that when I truly become balanced, the experience will be sustainable.
Thank you for your advice. My focus now is on the blockages in my orange chakra and *especially* in my solar plexus (that's where most of it is).

I'm very glad you took the advice so openly!
Higher and higher states will be sustainable and you will also be aided in accepting the lower states.
The 'concept' of lovebeing a threat is actually not a concept but more so my personal experience. Also everybody i know that practiced this technique sooner or later experienced this.
I think its a very common experience on the spiritual path.
Ultimate love ultimately leads to the dissolution of the ego, of the perceived identity, which is a HUGE threat to the system, to the ego.
So, its no threat to your real self, but to your ego, and arent we ultimately identifying with the ego?
Btw, Yogananda's book is a real good read for getting tuned in. Yoganada's foundation however is teaching the "chaste way", as opposed so the "tantric way". Is is reduced in energy and was adapted to the western needs of the beginning twentieth century.
