Biggest thing that the western traditions fail to do is emphasize that you need to take care of yourself at all times. Asceticism and self-harm can provide progress, but it's always at a savage and unnecessary price. Any tradition you can't integrate into a normal daily life is harmful and not worth pursuing, you'll just be lonely and frustrated, or in bad cases you'll drive yourself insane. If you're already getting spooked at synchronicities you're definitely approaching things from an unbalanced place. Don't try to just blow open advanced meditative practices, even if they're available on the Internet. It's very bad for you.

What about service to others, how can I stop being selfish
human
You're welcome :)

Just had a big blow off the crown myself. It sucks. Kundalini meditation helps stabilize them and definitely shouldn't be rushed, everyone wants to get to all the psychic stuff including myself and that's the goal, not the starting line.


If you focus on sharing your energy and kindness with other people, and just being nice, then a habit of healing will come naturally.

You shouldn't stop being selfish though! Overcoming the ego is about overcoming your body and mind, not being a sacrificial lamb hurting yourself to help others. #1 rule of first aid is to help yourself before you help others, if you're not safe or stable then you can't stabilize anyone else. A lot of people rushing spiritual practice focus on sacrifice way too much and end up hurting themselves and helping nobody. A lot of people in here are overweight on the brow and crown chakras, really overweight, and that usually comes with a megalomania of either hurting people or helping them.

idk how to unblock my kundalini with meditation but thank you for trying to explain
human
I'm not a good person to explain it, there are tons of sources on kundalini meditation. Wim Hof and Tibetan practices are my favorite. The only practice I'd really advise against is Reiki Tummo, it's a weird cult that's completely mangled the spirituality of the whole process and turned it into a westernized cash grap.

Thanks I will look into them.
