Kundalini Yoga Is Of The Devil!

I recently ran across a book entitled, "KUNDALINI, THE MOTHER-POWER" (1992). The author is SRI CHINMOY (ISBN 0-88497-104-X). This article I am writing is intended for research purposes. All my writings are FREE for you to use for the Lord.

Sri begins by claiming that god is "both" a mother and father to us. Sri says: "The Kundalini power is the power of the supreme goddess, the power of the mother aspect of the divine." The Bible never mentions any such thing. There is NO feminine side of God presented in the Bible. I am not a male-chauvinist, but I am not going to corrupt the word of God to appease a political agenda either. God chose the woman to continue His divine creation—There is no greater honor than to be the mother of one of God's little creations. This whole thing of equal rights has been blown way out of proportion. Most men and women simply don't understand the Bible—at all!

Their is nothing inferior about submitting to authority. Jesus submitted to the Heavenly Father while upon this earth, but He was not inferior in any way. Likewise, a Godly woman who obeys her husband is not inferior in any way. The only one inferior may be the husband who is abusive and fails to love his wife with kindness, respect and appreciation. Many women feel it is degrading to even think about OBEYING a husband—This is unfortunate. God has created us all equally IN HIS IMAGE.

...so after something on YouTube raising your blood pressure when you stated that you don't - nay, can't - watch such, reduced to visiting bookshops and perusing the shelves to find anything to write a screed about eh, David J. Desperate?!

But don't tell me: you wouldn't normally go anywhere near the sections in said bookshops which had said 'Satanic' tomes. Nor would you actually read those kinds of books, eh...?!

Look, I'm enough of a Media Snob to admit that I don't watch WWE nor soap operas, nor do I read certain types of books. And do you know why, Davey-boy?

Because I'm not interested in such.

So c'mon: time for you to be as honest about the real reasons why you watch/read the things you say you wouldn't.

You would maybe feel better if you wrote articles on what you believe instead of attacking other preachers, doctrines and activities.

This IS what he believes. He believes other religious leaders, other doctrines and other activities should not be allowed to exist.

People like Stewart feel that allowing competing modes of belief to exist is an intolerable, mortal insult.

So basically, you missed not only the point of what the author is trying to say, you missed the context it was written in and who the intended audience was supposed to be. Got it.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. (Gen 1:27 - KJV)

Without looking at the original Hebrew, it sure looks like that could be interpreted to mean that God created both male and female in his image, which in turn would mean that God is both male and female.

The Bible never mentions any such thing. There is NO feminine side of God presented in the Bible.

Well, sort of how he deals with the Bible, so...

This article is for research purposes but even Wikipedia is more reliable than Stewart

@checkmate: While I find it amusing that some people have interpreted “male and female he created them” to mean that Adam (and by extension, God) was a hermaphrodite who may or may not have had a second head - and to be fair, this is apparently what some ancient cultures around the Mediterranean appeared to believe about the very first humans until the Gods split them in two - I think it most likely it refers to Adam and Lilith, whose omission caused some continuity hiccups in the Book of Genesis. It still leaves God open to being neuter or hermaphroditic, obviously.

You’re a dickhead, as usual, Davey. I have found Kundalini yoga to be a WONDERFUL way to relax, SO much better than praying. So thank the Devil for that!

At least you were honest, for once: “The only one inferior may be the husband who is abusive and fails to love his wife with kindness, respect and appreciation”. To which I add, no wonder she divorced you.

…As a practice, yoga may be a form of exercise, but it in its original cultural context it is a form of spirituality. The idea is that a healthy body makes one less focused on the self (presumably because one has less need to pay attention to the needs, pains, and limitations of the body, so one’s limited attention can be more focused elsewhere) and thus more open to the divine. Depending on how you interpret that, it could be seen as ableist. That aside, while there are some new-agey Christians who have embraced that concept in a Christian context, and most see it only as mundane exercise, there are others who have interpreted that sort of “spiritual openness” as “being open to demonic possession”. Some of them do so because they think the particular exercises themselves is what causes the “openness”, others because they believe that misery is what causes people to be closer to God. That’s why some fundies hate yoga of all kinds.

God doesn't have a physical body so he's not make it female. The cultures that influenced the Bible were patriarchal which is why God is referred to as "He".

There's plenty of passages that refer to God's love and you really don't hear that about men.

I am not a male-chauvinist

Hah! Yes you are!

GENESIS 1:27 (Various Bible Versions)…

* (King James Version)
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

* (New King James Version)
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

* (New International Version)
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

* (Christian Standard Bible)
So God created man in his own image; he created him in the image of God; he created them male and female.

* (Contemporary English Version)
So God created humans to be like himself; he made men and women.

…The Holy Bible disagrees with you, Davie-boy!

—

Also; In Hebrew / Biblical theology, an aspect of Godde, The Shekhinah…is recognized as FEMININE. And Godde’s Four-Letter Name, YHVH, is an expression of both genders…
YOD - Father
HEI - Mother
VAV - Son
HEI - Daughter
…Male & Female are two complementary opposites that work together to form a whole. Godde made all therefore Female is equally holy and powerful as Male.
